It's not. I think they believe this, but it's deeply wrong and it will hurt everyone in the long run. [note - There has been supply chain surveillance since Project Bacchus, at the very least.] I've read the front matter and

Hey Ted, I invite you to read the front matter and the report for yourself. Because from where I'm standing, in this report, Anthropic is advertising that they blocked real research to make better painkillers and study a neglected trop

This report and its front matter speak for themselves. And the story it tells is disturbing, at least to me. Because from what I remember, one of the motivations behind the founding of OpenAI and Anthropic was ending disease. This report is

Hey there, is there some way for me to get in touch with you? I'm writing a piece on the topic, "Have you ever tried making a bioweapon?"

> access to robotic wet labs that are tool-callable How? It's worth asking the question and doing the experiment, have you ever tried making a bioweapon? For most of us, that's not going to be case, so the next best thing is to

I often attend and host talks by researchers working on space exploration, and one finding that's been interesting is immune dysregulation in isolation posing risks to astronauts and explorers. Here's a review on the topic, https

Just because you know something about a thing, doesn't mean you understand the thing. Just because I know the Kabachnik–Fields reaction exists and have studied it, doesn't mean I can do the Kabachnik–Fields reaction. Just becaus

I want to go further. A lot of people talking about AI bioweapons have no idea just how dangerous these weapons are. Or, rather they think they do, but unfortunately, there's a gulf in understanding between practitioners and commentato

People have died due to ransomware attacks on hospitals. Powerplants have been attacked. Stuxnet and industrial control malware exists. What will the AI do that hasn't been tried before?

How? What would the AI do that mutating viruses, which try every possible viable combination on their own --- eventually, can't? Everything is trying to kill humans constantly. There are around 200 epidemic events or so per year that c

How would it be lethal? Please specify. What would that theoretical entity be able to do that hasn't been done many, many times before?

Please note, I'm not here to pick on anyone, or belittle them. I've avoided attaching names to statements below on purpose, because it's about ambient beliefs not those specific people. By-and-large a lot of AI-doomers are we

The point of technology is to alleviate want. We wanted for food, therefore we created better technology to grow food. We wanted for shelter, therefore we created technologies to give us shelter... For someone starving, it matters not that

Are you sure you're not garbling the story? No, you're right, I mis-remembered. I still write my comments the old-fashioned way. They were proposing to create a counter-firm and used federal agents. For the rest, please

I suspect that this behavior is a learned adaptation. And that it's most likely a feature not a bug. Based on personal usage, I think it reflects functional degradation of search engines. I've found LLM keyword combinations are

You can read the talk page yourself. Wikipedia's editors are annoying and impossible to work with, but their obsessions are weighted towards the truth. And while some editors have acted in bad faith for smaller articles; articles like

Not necessarily. No sensor is reliable, all sensors have noise and they drift. It's why you use something like a kalman filter. It's worth doing it over an afternoon, but you can do very simple curve fitting with real sensor data

I'm mostly writing code for myself, but it's a project that'll end up being public and it'll be available for others to do whatever they want with. Does that change the answer?
