Agreed, original article was very clearly intentionally misleading. Not just in the title. The entire concept and terminology was essentially made up to imply something exciting was happening when it was not.
Both of which we are finding out are apparently insufficient to mitigate this.
They absolutely control it. An anthropic employee has been pushing those builds since the beginning.
This time they say they didn’t do it. That might be true or maybe that employees credential was compromised. We don’t actually have facts yet.
A winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, Paul Krugman wrote in 1998, “The growth of the Internet will slow drastically, as the flaw in ‘Metcalfe’s law’—which states that the number of potential connections in a network is proportional to the square of the number of participants—becomes apparent: most people have nothing to say to each other! By 2005, it will become clear that the Internet’s impact on the economy has been no greater than the fax machine’s.”
If Roku has moved then I guess it is game over.
Seems like all the models that were distilled from the same place have the same answer, and the ones that were not distilled just have their answers miscategorized in the dataset in favor of the conclusion.
Not sure what this says about humans.
All seems like pretty good advice. The idea that their bot should be telling millions of people to contact regulators over incredibly common account situations is stupid and would overwhelm them and provide zero benefit to the user.
The best advice for the vast majority of users who can no longer easily prove an account belongs to them is to let it expire in a few months automatically.
You are going to potentially spend a major portion of your life there - so it isn't that weird to set aside a full day to get to know them.
In my experience with this format it isn't like you are coding for 9 hours. It starts with soft HR stuff, ends with a sales pitch to you, and most of the middle is just pleasant conversation with interesting people.
Because Anthropic is the final manifestation of EA and is about to raise two trillion dollars.
If you want to ban ISP's in your state, or build a state firewall, or arrest your citizens, you are welcome to do so - but what happens on servers outside your state that your state is choosing to connect to is clearly none of your business.
Seems like we need a fundamental challenge to the concept that you have any jurisdiction whatsoever.
I tend to find this part of the work enjoyable. It is just a faster and more productive version of what I would do with any engineer working for me who owns a large feature. I barely have to hint at my concern or drop the right keyword and the agent (Fable/Astra) will immediately understand.
"Couldn't this be stateless?" "Do you have a plan to be able to shard this?" - We will almost always pivot from the agents initial design but the agent is able to easily understand the reasons and benefits and align quickly.
If I was writing the code myself, I'd often have to make compromises between the ideal architecture and the level of effort required to implement it - now I can just always have the ideal architecture.
NASA, with the best leadership it has ever had, is cutting absurdly wasteful, over-budget programs that will never launch, to focus on actually getting things done.
Sounds great to me.
The devices are entirely open for all practical purposes - but worrying about individual cameras is silly, because they have no meaningful security at all around the API's to access all the cloud data - you can buy law enforcement credentials dirt cheap in dark web marketplaces to log in and track anyone/anywhere you want and access all footage.
Our agents automatically review our PR's - the authors agents automatically see the feedback and make fixes, and automatically merge when everything is green.
A well authored CI review process is significantly better than any human could do. We have the AI review not only the changes but clone and investigate all related repositories that integrate with the code to evaluate interactions, check all open and historical issues that may be related, review production/development logs for the feature, etc.
It will then also go update issues/tasks to reflect the changes after the merge.
Similarly you can have automated agents watching post-deployment to mitigate risk in the "a new feature just went out" time-frame. Just having someone check the related logs in the hours after deployment can catch a lot of issues that otherwise would turn into a fire-drill.
I can't tell if this is an excellent joke, or a sad not-joke.
“constant missing in our math” is roughly how inventing new particles in physics works.
When your equations are missing a number to work, you announce a new particle.
Free Opus 5 is like getting a free STD.
It dramatically improved about a week ago - most of my blocked projects are now completely functional.
It wasn't really worth exploring last year either.
For your use case n8n may be a good fit, and Claude or Codex will be happy to set it up for you.
If you want this "messenger interface with computers for the agents" feature set Grok Bot is quite good and effortless to use. With Tailscale configured on its personal VM it can connect to machines on your network easily.
The exponential growth they are having right now is absolutely insane. I would caution against assuming its an easy problem, or that anyone else has demonstrated an ability to handle this level of scale/growth any better.
In May they had to solve for 30x growth overnight, and I would guess its closer to 100x by now. The reality is a centralized solution like this may no longer be a viable option with the scale of code generation.
It is only unreasonable if you have the unreasonable assumption that this is not a simulation.
In my experience the complexity of the coding challenges tackled correlates well with the talent of the engineers.
It is uncommon to find engineers doing work they find trivial outside of some consulting niches.
Indeed. I find it quite bizarre that just about the only thing the LLM appears incapable of doing is writing appropriate instructions for an LLM - whether it be memories, sub agent prompts, planning documents.
I’m struggling to imagine a project that would require more than one talented engineer and a bucket of tokens anymore.
I think perhaps the assumption that engineering managers should have any employees may be outdated.
I can imagine average and mediocre engineers equipped with tokens could create chaos and debt on a scale never before imaginable, so it’s easy to see how orgs who still have these employees around are struggling with the transition.
The reality is you need to get rid of them all, and replace them with the most experienced highest paid person you can find. In the near future that person will become obsolete too.
They are concerned mathematicians are obsolete and seem to be unaware that super intelligence means
humans are obsolete.
You need to be thinking about an entirely different form of life for all of humanity, happening in the very near future. Focusing on one specific field that may be earlier in the obsolescence chain is a distraction.
Merit based society based on intelligence or work of nearly any kind is about to cease existence.
For some reason it feels to me that this should make mathematicians feels better. :)
I would learn both Claude and ChatGPT just to be safe.
Clearly you didn't try it yet ;)
