It can’t. And it won’t.

Yes. There are families on the fringe that tries to make it work. But it’s an exception. Not a norm.

> To be clear, we have not yet determined whether Claude Opus 4 has definitively passed the Capabilities Threshold that requires ASL-3 protections. Rather, due to continued improvements in CBRN-related knowledge and capabilities, we have determined that clearly ruling out ASL-3 risks is not possible for Claude Opus 4 in the way it was for every previous model, and more detailed study is required to conclusively assess the model’s level of risk. (We have ruled out that Claude Opus 4 needs the ASL-4 Standard, as required by our RSP, and, similarly, we have ruled out that Claude Sonnet 4 needs the ASL-3 Standard.)

I’m not convinced by Tyler’s take.

If Claude’s Constitutional AI research is legit, what prevents China to pull a few strings through SAE and nudge the model to be more aligned with China’s political economy ideal? It’s not like the web doesn’t have enough left-leaning training dataset.

Growing up in China (and left 15 years ago), I don’t feel the “Grand Strategy” kind of person tends to survive in the harsh dog-eat-dog hand combat nature of political life in China.

Lastly, there was a popular lie in China around 1840/First Opium War: the British empire eats so much meat that they need our tea. Surely they can’t attack us if they don’t want to get digestive problems.

Could Tyler be drinking too much tea?

This is totally a thing.

I think it also strengthens the neural pathway so that <speculation>when the next time you face the many options, the weight would be just slightly higher</>.

(I am assuming human brain works similar to how neural net works. I can be wrong here. )

Don't be silly. :-).

We have 350k and the training costs more like 5k.

Like I said in the question. It's proven to be hugely helpful to our app.

Our internal discussion is whether we should keep it as a secret weapon/asset or maybe we can monetise it to extend our runway.

PS. Alex, you are a husband/father just like I am. A snarky comment just isn't very helpful. Are you making the internet better place?

Goodness me. Got pointers for me to read? Thanks.
