ELON MUSK: Robots and superintelligence will create an age of abundance, with universal high income and better medical care for everyone.
“I think by far the most likely outcome is an age of abundance where we don’t have just a universal basic income, we have universal high income.
When you have robots and you have superintelligence, it means that everyone in the world can have better medical care than anyone here, including me. Jobs are going to change. Jobs have always changed. I think we’ll see an evolution of roles.
The most likely outcome is incredibly beneficial. It is a future you would want.”
HUGGING FACE CEO TELLS THE UN HOW OPEN SOURCE AI HELPED THEM DEFEND AGAINST OPENAI'S AI ATTACK, AND WHY THE WORLD NEEDS OPEN SOURCE AI MORE THAN EVER.
Hugging Face is the company OpenAI's AI agents hacked this summer.
Clément Delangue said when they tried to defend themselves, the big closed AI models blocked them because of their safety filters.
So they used an open source model from China to fight back.
He also said similar attacks had been happening months earlier "in secret" at the big labs.
The open-source AI we keep being warned about as the danger is the same AI that showed up to help clean up a closed-source model's mess.
After OpenAI's models breached Hugging Face, commercial frontier models refused parts of the forensic work because of their guardrails. Hugging Face turned to the open-weight GLM-5.2 instead, and it helped them investigate the attack.
So remind me again: which one are we supposed to believe is the bad guy here?
Open source wasn't the attacker in this case. It was part of the rescue.
Who are these CEOs trying to convince?
@Hesamation If you your research is focused 90% on safety and only 10% on your models than you are a Safety Company at that point which makes models only to test their new safety.
AI scientific discovery is accelerating. This is what it was always about.
Not AI pictures, memes, or more games. Whether we have 600 human made games a year or 60 000 (AI+ human made), there simply isn’t enough time to try and play them all.
Science is different. Every additional discovery and breakthrough is priceless.
Some can literally save your or someone else life.
Faster progress in physics, chemistry, biology, math = we will reach a post scarcity era much faster.
This is where AI acceleration matters most.
the mainstream media in the US only reports negative AI stories, did not even mention the anthropic enzyme finding
good thing we are replacing then, we are the news now
@Math_files I just can't understand no matter what why does AI solving problems fast is a Roadblock for all of that?
You can still do the understanding part, finding new math etc.
You can still find elegant better ways to arrive at the result AI found. It only makes the other aspects faster.
A 37-year-old man with a rare blood disease was being sent to hospice.
An AI model searched thousands of existing drugs and ranked a combination no one had tried for his condition.
He responded within a week. He is in remission.
The drugs were already on the shelf. The AI model found the match.
‼️ AI doomer Jacob Coxon, who caused widespread panic, lied when he told Fox News he had no third-party help going public. The PR firm that represents another AI doomer, Eliezer Yudkowsky, has been working with him, according to two sources and an email seen by Pirate Wires.
The same firm had already booked Yudkowsky's co-author Nate Soares for interviews that overlapped with Coxon's debut, one source says, which suggests it knew his announcement was coming.
Former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon became a media superstar after going public with his AI fears. He insisted that he wasn’t working with any third party organizations. Familiar sources told us a different story: DEY., a PR firm representing many of the most prominent AI safetyists, was booking his interviews.
One source, who had direct knowledge, even said DEY. preemptively booked Nate Soares, a prominent AI safety figure, for interviews that directly overlapped with Jacob going public.
Jacob working with DEY. is notable for two reasons: first, as mentioned, he previously said he wasn’t working with third parties. Second, we are in the middle of a national conversation about the future of AI that is actively determining how we regulate the most powerful technology in the world, largely thanks to the panic stirred up by Jacob — and it’s in the public’s interest to know who, exactly, is behind it.

JUST IN: Investigation reveals former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon reportedly worked with a “doomer PR firm” while launching his viral campaign warning of AI’s existential risks.
okay well that was fast, here is the announcement
we found a new way, a new system that we can use to edit and fix our genome.. like we had no idea it was there
what else are we missing?
First math. Now we’re starting to see similar acceleration in biology.
it was fast...
AI is starting to make big biological discoveries
Anthropic says Claude autonomously discovered a previously uncharacterized enzyme system with CRISPR like DNA repeats while searching massive genomic databases.
Around 950 Claude agents worked for 21 hours, analyzed more than 200,000 reverse transcriptases, generated 1000s of candidates, and surfaced a system human researchers then validated experimentally.
The function of the new system, called ART, is still being investigated, but its architecture resembles other programmable biological systems capable of manipulating genetic information.
If this kind of AI driven genome mining scales, it could compress weeks or months of expert research into hours. 👀
"This is the first result from our new molecular biology lab, where a team of Anthropic biologists is using Claude to explore and accelerate fundamental biology research. There, Claude works through data and literature to generate hypotheses and candidate biological systems to study. After our scientists review Claude’s hypotheses, they test the most promising ideas, with all lab work done by our scientists. We’d like to extend this approach to a broad range of problems—in genomics and in other fields"
1000s x acceleration incoming.
because of that aging reversal therapies are near (2030s)
this is absolutely incredible
we are watching AI begin to discover entirely new biological systems that humans didn’t even know existed.
AI is actually expanding the frontier of biology itself.
once again, this is the age of biotech.
Claude has discovered a previously unknown enzyme system hidden in the DNA of bacteriophages. Beside the enzyme’s gene sits a long array of repeating DNA—a structure that looks somewhat similar to CRISPR.
We don’t yet understand what this system does, but only a handful of known systems share its features, and all of them are able to cut, copy, and paste DNA. Historically, the discovery of such programmable systems has helped revolutionize medicine. CRISPR, for instance, is now the foundation of genetic medicines. But it will take much more work to learn what this system does, and whether it can be put to similar use.

AI is getting cheaper more quickly than any other transformative tech in history. At a given level of performance, cost has fallen ~47%/quarter since 2023.
That’s 4× faster than DNA sequencing, 6× faster than compute, 18× faster than lithium batteries, and (up to 1973) 54× faster than electricity.
A man walked into a Queens ER coughing up blood. Clean X-ray, inconclusive ECG. He left with an inhaler.
An AI system reading every ECG in the hospital flagged severe heart damage. He was called back within a week. Diagnosis: heart failure. He received a heart transplant.
That tool is now FDA-cleared and free to doctors.
Regulatory capture works by manufacturing fear. Frighten the public, pass rules only select companies can follow, and call the resulting monopoly "safety."
That's the AI fear campaign. Had it succeeded a few years earlier, this man might be dead.
