1 - 10: How accurately was life at General Magic portrayed in the documentary?

What is the evidence that skills files are an effective way to achieve your goals with the latest frontier lab LLMs?

Fallen? The founders and about 30 researchers took a $2.7 billion exit from Google in 2024.

Neal Agarwal's Absurd Trolley Problems inspired me to go a little less absurd, and also to see how frontier and open weight models would choose in high stake and social stake moral dilemmas.

First I had to create a new set of problems, which I did with my "Trolley Game"... where AI tries to predict your choices based on a handful of warm-up questions (77% accuracy right now). Then I ran 14 models through the full set of 20 dilemmas, 200+ times each, asking them for rationale and predictions about what humans would choose along the way.

Reasoning on; reasoning off. Reversal of choices to test for primacy effect.

Conclusion? We (humans) should be careful about how much control we hand over in terms of tool use in the future... because (1) like humans, AI models don't agree on everything, (2) they are not aligned with us in many ways (depending on your POV, of course), and (3) they "see" us as quite predictable creatures.

So this appears to mean that Hyundai is effectively taking BD's humanoids "off the market" (B2C/B2B markets). And Softbank wants to take a different humanoids stake in OpenAI's plans.

I always wonder how people can tell. For this particular article, was it the thirty-four occurrences of em dashes with spaces on either side? Something else obvious?

Five EU countries have now approved, including Belgium, which is interesting considering Brussels (ECC "capital").

My 2024 Model 3 Performance regularly sees its EPA rated range.

$1.2M in Canada after provincial and federal luxury sales taxes. For a 5100 pound, sub-300 mile range, mid-performer with 23/24" wheels. All those louvres, ducts, and aerodynamics for a terribly inefficient EV. Disappointing. (edited because i had $1.1M as the final price)

Just 280+ mile EPA range on a 122 kwH battery. 5100 pounds. 2.5s to 60. Not insane by any standard, ICE or EV.

The idea that 100s of global pension funds don't do their due diligence when investing 100s of millions or billions of their members' future retirement funds is extremely naive. With sincerity, I hope you can find a way not to be so emotional about what Musk says and be more grounded in what his companies and their employees are doing.

Some fair points, but Model Y was the #1 selling SUV in China in Feb and Mar, and 2nd place vehicle was almost half the price.
