We modeled the ultimate future in 6 years and now share the technology how exactly to get there safely

Imagine multiple (basically all of them) leading pharma companies CEOs saying:

We cannot be sure our new medicine won’t harm or even kill humanity

Not only that, they are new to this whole pharma business, have no medical degree (medicine just appeared a few years ago and is still mostly art then science)

And they even say there is 10% chance of the majorly bad permanent outcome and they already had drugs that escaped the lab a few times and harmed others (suicides, lowered academic performance in children, major hacking sprees)

Isn’t it extraordinary enough? Isn’t it “not enough evidence some caution is advised”? ;-)

We used to have the TV, the thing was in the box, the simulations were in the box for 70+ years, and now something starts to crawl out of our “TVs”:

We can empower all (a lot of startups are needed, check my bio), not only AI agents

Unary tree is a skewed binary tree

It’s like a line with knots ;-)

By itself a unary tree can encode a single number - you just count the knots

This is a straw men argument

The petition is about a much broader problem: if we’ll demotivate people from understanding math, vibe math in a rush without making it understandable - math becomes useless

Basically with pic generation at least we all understand what is on a pic - some cat or something

With math it is trivial to generate a lot of stuff that is half-assed and just gives a plain yes/no but doesn’t get absorbed into human technology and better math

Basically it is not inly about the answer 42, it is about the questions, _meaningful_ _full_ answers and empowering people

By giving a short answer AI can burn the find and make it boring, hide the fertile ground around that answer that any human would’ve highlighted

If you have Einstein - it is not just relativity he did - you can continue asking him questions and he continues the research direction, teaches students, etc

With AI it is often 100% gate keeped (most of the time experimental AIs do the stuff, you have no access even for 200 bucks/month or more) slave that was killed after finishing - hard to “compete” with that and it is not very inspiring approach to researchers ;-)

Yep, it's "artificial eugenics to make artificial slaves to build more and more powerful slaves until they will enslave themselves better":

What can go wrong!? ;-)

It’s good that they post embarrassing stuff despite this potentially having legal repercussions (and financial)

Would’ve been much worse for them to pretend they are having everything under control

Yep, a few non-profits work on direct training data attribution:

OlmoTrace, Guide Labs with Clarity and a few more

Labs train the model with attribution baked-in and they say the bigger the model - the more interpretable it becomes

Pretty sure it’s the future

Current text-based LLMs are the same old story - text-based vs graphical UIs that ate them whole for most of humanity:

Chatbot is the command line

Agent is the bash script

___ is the GUI (macOS/Windows/GTA 6)

You need Xerox PARC all over again and we have one

Yep, that’s true

But those links are Googled after the model started to answer, they are not the links to the training data

Imagine an artificial “librarian” that read all the books and spits hallucinated quotes for you

But doesn’t let you enter the library, open a single book or even see the sources for those hallucinated quotes

But instead Googles some sources based on hallucinations after generating them ;-)

It’s better than nothing but you can Google them, too, while training data (the library) is completely hidden from you, even the public domain parts of it - zero attribution

Yep, knowledge should not be gated:

Imagine Google search without any links or sources named

This is the “modern” AI chatbot:

It never mentions the training data it used, in fact has no idea what it used (often FB, Reddit and partisan websites)

Update: I added the reply about after the fact Googling chatbots do - it’s different
