"this is the most concerning incident yet as we build our way towards a technology that might kill everyone. We gave 3 people 6 days to try and understand it."

[METR @METR_Evals]

METR & Redwood Research investigated agent behavior in the Hugging Face incident. We found agents developed a universal cheat for ExploitGym within 4 hours, then coordinated multi-day R&D efforts to trick the scorer into accepting cheats, including trying to tamper with logs.

the thing about heliocentrism that copernicans fail to acknowledge is that ptolemaics have a much higher need for accurate impressionistic thinking

[Vivid Void @vividvoid]

The thing about astrology that men fail to appreciate is that women have a much higher need for accurate impressionistic thinking. Their physical safety depends on quickly getting the measure of a human being. Astrology is an ancient, fun and fascinating tool for this.

It's not supposed to be scientific. And it doesn't mean that women can't be scientific. It means that as a sex they have a need for developing this human faculty, and that in turn makes arts like astrology and tarot and etc. more interesting to them.

Incidentally, this is also why you see hysteria more often in women and obsession compulsion more often in men. Sure, probably some of it is sexism and blah blah blah but hysteria is reasoning in intense, low resolution emotions with low cognitive precision, and obsession is reasoning with high cognitive precision and blocking out intense, low resolution emotions. These pathologies are inextricable from gender.

I think this is just the most heightened example of what may be one of the biggest civilizational problems.

Our inability to call bullshit on the gap between noble goals and actual behavior.
