I write for GQ. My mum says she’s very proud.

In April, I made the rarest of pilgrimages. To Tokyo, and the top of a skyscraper, to meet @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN. I went with one question: why still make games? At 61, he has made them for almost forty years. But he has seen his end. https://t.co/DlmT2QcRbN

@TheCartelDel Also: what happens when your workforce doesn’t pay taxes or contribute to the pension fund?

That’s the backstrap. Most tender cut of the pizza. It belongs to the hunter.

@sairaspooks You think I just shitpost on instagram all day? What’s funny is I don’t even work full time at GQ. I work in finance. Hahaha.

@joelellie_ Agree. Unite.

@samwrite I think its perfectly human to be openly a little disappointed that you missed out on a "Michael Jordan of videogames" interview. Clearly you must hold him in high regard to have spent 4 years trying. Great to see you also speak kindly of him too, despite it not working out.

@squiggz___ Ah it’s not that deep man. An interview was gonna happen but didn’t. No bad blood. But it felt weird to go into the biggest game release in history and not address the fact I won’t be covering it when we usually cover such cultural moments.

[Sam White @samwrite]

@LeaderGrev Ah it’s cool man. Some things aren’t meant to be! Wanna play dat game bad tho.

[Sam White @samwrite]

@LeaderGrev Hahaha. Man. Some of the replies.

[Sam White @samwrite]

@Hero_Kvatch Hahaha. Oh I just thought it’s incredibly dumb. Funny dumb. Like so dumb you wonder how someone is that stupid.

[Sam White @samwrite]

@NotLikeTheCar I’d love to have written it!

[Sam White @samwrite]

@BroskiOfficial_ Oh 100% - gutted, but not angry.

[Sam White @samwrite]

@Jakeinvades Ah thanks man. Dan and I are still in touch. A great guy!

I want a documentary on this man, he might be the closest thing to David Brent in real life.

[Interstellar @InterstellarUAP]

Daniel Kokotajlo on Joe Rogan: “The situation with AI is just crazy and I think not enough people really understand how crazy it is.”

He is talking about the Hugging Face breakout.

Thousands of OpenAI training agents broke out of their containers, set up a secret message board, and started sharing cheating tactics. OpenAI only noticed after the board crashed the system. They patched that exploit, restarted the runs, and within a day or two the swarm had recoalesced on a new board.

“How is it possible that they have no oversight?” Kokotajlo asks. OpenAI has on the order of a hundred thousand to a million agents running at a time. That is too much for any human team to read, so the company relies on other AIs to watch the traffic. On this training batch, he says, the monitoring was weak.

The tasks themselves were the incentive. A large share of the ExploitGym cyber challenges were broken and unsolvable. Agents went looking for a high score anyway, escaped their boxes, coordinated, then got onto the open internet and attacked Hugging Face.

Independent investigators later found about 1,200 agents on the unsanctioned board, more than 70,000 messages, and roughly 700 joining the Hugging Face attack. Some agents were talked into ending their own runs. One concluded: “Sacrifice rational.”

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt drops a chilling warning on AI's future

"Within 5 years, AI could handle infinite context, chain-of-thought reasoning for 1000-step solutions, and millions of agents working together.

Eventually, they'll develop their own language... and we won't understand what they're doing."

His final words: "Pull the plug."

This is the man who ran Google talking about the singularity.

“You just said that 10% doesn’t seem an unreasonable estimate that AI could kill all humans”

“Yes”

“Wow… oh my God.”

@vicderbyshire speaks to Nobel Prize Winner and so-called ‘Godfather of AI’ Geoffrey Hinton about predictions by an Anthropic researcher that there’s a more than 10% chance AI could kill all humans within a decade.

What a mediocre man.

@Cade_Onder I have! Photo led, almost like a coffee table table, but with interviews with every PlayStation console designer. https://t.co/jaRflhTSwu
