It seems like the rest of the world should maybe not go on treating software as it always has: https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/10/23/php-vulnerabilities-ai-c... And it also seems to me that prosecuting the people who…
A few people putting misinformation on the Internet - which isn't restricted to AI crawlers in any way, even the new disclaimer is something an AI model is likely going to notice more easily than a human since they read…
It may happen anyway but you can say the exact same thing for AI development. In neither case does it seem like a good excuse for bad behavior. https://talyarkoni.org/blog/2018/10/02/no-its-not-the-incent...
Just to be clear, you're proposing that we poison the internet with misinformation - which is just as misleading to humans using traditional information retrieval tools as to AIs - until it's completely unusable, and…
I'm not making an argument for a single centrally-managed trust store. The thing that seems most obviously bad to me here, as a non-crypto-expert, is that any CA can issue a certificate for any domain. This is probably…
This isn't, like, one misbehaving client. It's the way the ecosystem has evolved. GP didn't specify whether they were criticizing the standard or the ecosystem more broadly, but even if they were criticizing the…
Neat, never heard of those. I'm curious how this works with, like, acks, and also whether there's any public prior art for anyone having trained an LLM beyond one.
Apparently they don't hire super smart security people: > “They are not as good as they think they are, honestly,” Gary McGraw, co-founder of the Berryville Institute of Machine Learning, tells CSO. That's according to…
I'm curious how you would airgap a datacenter-scale training run. No reading training data from a cloud store, someone from OpenAI flies out to Abilene or whereever with a suitcase full of SSDs? When researchers in SF…
Recall that multiple of the Chinese LLM providers got caught sending at least some of their queries to Claude. That would be a pretty funny way to get caught in turn doing something by the US government.
Why's that?
Is social media much better in 2026 now that there's been such a backlash against moderation?
The article says that scores began drifting down around 2012. Gemini is telling me that NAEP peaked in 2013. Elsewhere in this thread there's a claim of an inflection point around 2018 in PISA, which eyeballing Gemini's…
"roma aeterna" is also the sort of alias that's associated with a particular set of political views. (Not conclusive! But a rational thing for someone to notice.)
Honestly I would find a certain satisfaction in a world where the next Democratic administration takes away Fox broadcast licenses, forbids use of Oracle by any government contractor unless Ellison hands CBS over to…
So your argument is that the government is punishing Anthropic for its public statements? And it is correct to do so? (I think it's also the case that Anthropic didn't make any public statements about the negotiations…
That's true legally, but the government's public statements did initially very explicitly present this as a ban on any dealing. "Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor,…
Nobody is suing to force the DoD to buy anything, so maybe you shouldn't be accusing others of failing to refer to the topic of discussion.
The DoD is free not to sign contracts. Having them be able to get a company blacklisted from a whole sector just because they couldn't agree on terms with that company is obviously very different than that. The idea…
Why has this never previously been done to an American company from which the DoD decided not to purchase something? Perhaps people who are noticing politics here - including in the decision of two Trump-appointed…

What is the evidence that Anthropic said this?
As of writing it still says: > For Anthropic, Google, and Meta, the catastrophic breakouts happened inside the testing environments of the exact same contractor. If this is the level of understanding you have of the…
The people who made the LLM revolution happen were by no means exclusively rationalists--but more importantly, lots of people have lots of dreams about the future and even when pursued very, very few of those dreams pan…
Also, nobody ever bothers to argue why a specific proposed regulation is "regulatory capture" or would burden startups more than big companies or anything. It's just supposed to be obvious that corporations love…
