If confirmed, this is telling: Russian data centres get hit, and online activity around AfD suddenly plummets. 📉
So much talk about German patriotism… then the connection from Russia goes down. 🤔🇷🇺
Imagine being a PhD student at this time. As if life isn't difficult enough. Now if you give a talk at a conference, and someone posts it online, Open AI might publish something before you. Like wtf ! The people who are defending this disgusts me.
They have withdrawn 3 connected papers “solving” a case of the Hodge conjecture.
One of them had a sign error that invalidated the argument, and with it the other two.
The subscription models can easily find that error. So they rushed to put out a partial result on a Millennium problem without even checking it twice.
That’s the level of care, the seriousness, with which mathematics was approached here.
LLMs are an amazing tool for doing math. But using them like this is just irresponsible.
Also, they have already benchmarked these models on proving big theorems. I’d love to hear what investors think about all of this.
Reading the comments of junior mathematicians confirms what many senior mathematicians have been warning about over the past month:
It is becoming clear that people with the intellectual ability to understand these proofs will not be interested in spending their lives training to check LLM logs.
This is the tragic side of what is happening that almost no one — except the actual mathematicians — seems to get.
Either we figure out how to keep people interested in doing mathematics, or in 20 years LLMs will have no one’s work left to recombine into new proofs, and no one interested in reading those proofs.
That would be the thermal death of mathematics.
The argument that “LLMs will read LLM math” is so shortsighted that it makes me want to cry…
i cannot wrap my fucking head around this.
“the average result used the equivalent compute of roughly three hours of chatgpt pro thinking.”
THREE HOURS!!!!????!!
we’re talking about mathematical problems that humans have spent years or decades thinking about.
i don’t think we’re remotely prepared for the scaling implications here.
OpenAI has released 722 papers instead of 400.
My pick is the claimed proof of the quasi-Riemann hypothesis—result #003
https://t.co/4Hz60fVTSF
OpenAI says an unreleased internal model attempted approximately 4,000 problems, with each result averaging compute equivalent to three hours of ChatGPT Pro thinking.
I remember hearing from anti-Ukraine voices about their so-called bio labs. It was Russian disinformation ops at their best. But in reality it is Russia with the bio labs.
Seriously now.
If a Ukrainian lab tech died of plague and 200 people were put in quarantine in a major Ukrainian city, social media would explode with the wildest claims, anger and fear mongering from right wingers and russian whores.
But because it happened in russia... they are all silent.
Taking bets on how many russians will die of plague before they say something... or, more likely, blame it on Ukraine.
I'll start the bidding at 100.
This is so f--king scary.
Instead of taking Dario Amodei's AI warning into account, Trump is saying that we don't actually need any AI guardrails, since we have him as President, and then he goes on to attack Amodei for "doing bad" things.
Trump is an unhinged, weak, demented man, who only cares about himself.
Anthropic CEO worries we're 6-12 months away from a swarm of AI agents capable of taking over the ENTIRE internet
Calls for immediate, global 1-2 year slowdown in AI development
Time to trust the people building the technology over the people merely investing in it
Something clearly happened with a frontier AI model that hasn't been made public and it spooked them so much that it made Elon Musk, Dario Amodei, and Sam Altman all simultaneously agree to slow down.
🕊 The missing Twin Towers returned to New York for a few minutes
A light show was held on the eve of the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks.
The drones first rose into the night sky in a spiral, then formed the outlines of the destroyed World Trade Center towers.
The installation used 2,977 drones — one for each person killed in the attacks.
This is just coming in: there appears to be a major fire on the upper floors of one of the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City.
Reports claim that a small plane, either a Cessna or a private jet, accidentally flew into the tower around the 80th floor, due to either an air traffic control communications error or a malfunction on the aircraft.
The dozens of victims are in our thoughts. We will continue to monitor rescue and repair surrounding this alarming accident.
“You just said that 10% doesn’t seem an unreasonable estimate that AI could kill all humans”
“Yes.”
“Wow… oh my God.”
“Yes.”
