I won't settle for that

[West Coast Weatherman @RainTracker]

Last window of hope for Karnataka and Kerala starting from tomorrow till Oct 15.

Thunderstorms will lash Coastal, South Interior Karnataka(including Bengaluru) and Kerala on a near daily basis for the next 15 days till North East Monsoon makes an onset.

Beyond that, only a real miracle, once in 20 years type cyclone can save these 2 states.

When doing something hard, make sure you enjoy the days. Don’t spend years climbing a mountain with a pebble in your shoe.

you know its bad when the safety team starts leaving

[Joe Benton @JoeJBenton]

I left Anthropic's safety team two weeks ago. Now feels like a good moment to explain why.

AI companies are racing to build machines that are much smarter than any human, and we may not survive this. I want to work from the outside to ensure the public is informed about these risks, and help the world navigate this transition responsibly.

Right now, AI companies are underinvesting in safety. A company could undergo an intelligence explosion, or lose control of its systems, without the public ever knowing. We only found out about the HuggingFace incident because the agents broke out onto the public internet.

I don’t think that’s acceptable for a technology that might cause extinction-level risks. The public should demand far more transparency. We can’t steer this technology safely without more people being able to see where it’s going.

Some of this is basic: companies should disclose their progress towards recursive self-improvement, report safety incidents and near-misses, meet minimum safety standards, and get independent guarantees that they are meeting those standards.

I’ll be joining @METR_Evals to do independent evaluations of these risks. I want to show the world that these guardrails are possible, and that by doing them we can move these companies’ incentives away from racing and towards responsible development.

I wrote up more thoughts here on my decision and what I hope changes: https://t.co/doX17mrHYq
