We just raised a historic funding round for Portugal, backed by some of the country’s top unicorn founders. And we're now looking for the best young talent to join us.
So we built something to find them. It's called Arcus - a series of trials. No resume. No application forms. Just a terminal and a problem to solve.
The first trial is live: Ode Triunfal, with €3k in prizes. Access it through 'ssh augustalabs[dot]ai'.
More info in the comments.
We're just getting started.
In my Harvard fellowship I study the views of AI accelerationists, safetyists and skeptics.
What I have come to realize is that both the Accelerationists and the Safetyists believe that we are creating an AI God.
The difference is that Accelerationists believe that it is the god of the New testament.
A god of loving kindness.
The Safetyists believe that it is the god of the Old testament.
The jealous one who told Abraham to kill his son, destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and killed everybody in the flood.
The Skeptics think it's just a damn toaster with more knobs.
for those of u that are wondering what the @etnshow lads get up to on weekends, I can confirm that @lukeknight and @Ronanchamberss do the following:
09:00 wake up - cant be starting too early.
09:30 - croissant and double espresso at artisan cafe with ray bans on, 3 buttons undone on a linen shirt
10:00 - begin reading performative French philosophy
12:00 - briefly open slack to confirm everyone isn’t working too hard
12:05 - dump some “lfgs” in group chats and twitter replies
12:10 - lock in to a pub in the sun drinking aperol spritz with straws. turns out this is actually alpha male shit bc the normies don’t know they control European tech media narrative
@Tom_Westgarth15 the far left would rather gaslight themselves into financial conspiracy than acknowledge that meritocracy is a thing and that laura is on QT bc she is brilliantly talented
