While not the only ones, the NYT notoriously pushed a lot of false and poorly verified information from questionable sources as fact in an effort to be the first to publish. They subsequently issued a mea culpa. https://www.nytim

No, just that “What if I just cheat to get the treat” is also something my lovable Boxer does when I hide rewards as well. I suppose her energy is limited but even if infinite, and with caution, I estimate the chances of a mass extinction e

Not explicitly, but hacking HF is within the scope of “solve this problem at all costs” + no/poor guardrails + infinite budget + unsolvable problem.

1. I don’t think that’s a very strong argument. OpenAI and Anthropic don’t buy the vast majority of GPUs they use they rent capacity. Nvidia could just the same rent those GPUs out for inference and actually have way better margins than the

About the same, 5-10, when you consider major (aka frontier) airlines. Actually not a bad comparison. Both burn massive amounts of up front capital to protect an oligopoly in the hopes their commodity product eventually pays off.

1. Not really, current valuations are priced for persistent 80%+ margins based on spot. If auxiliary hardware lasts longer (I.e. next gen GPU reusing the same shell) then that reduces supply pressure and spot prices. 2. Jevon’s paradox is a

Paying customer at what price? My understanding of Meta’s request is API pricing per token (of course discounted for volume) for content moderation etc. which is a lower margin product than Gemini enterprise seats. They also prioritize inte

It is very suspicious when they’re paying for GB300 more than they turn around and charge those out as a4x instances, it was announced a week before IPO and they have a 90 day exit option. > The RPO can be anywhere from 3 - 6 years, sure

by haldujai 1mo ago
Backlog meaning RPO over 5 years. It’s not as if they would be able to collect 250B today from OpenAI and Anthropic if they were to have that compute. In any case, my point is that the SpaceX deal specifically likely has ulterior motives.

It hasn’t bent already? 2022-2024 certainly seemed far more exponential than 2024 to present.

No, that’s not my argument. Rather it is that a counterexample to a mathematical proof whether produced by human or AI may be a scientific discovery but it is not inherently new and brilliant by definition. The case for AI is also weakened

The comment more likely means the harness source was read, not memory from a previous run and the first few turns of bp35 appear to be a cold start. Sure none of this is certain without the source. I do believe the authors that this schema

If you are referring to the Jacobian conjecture Claude only provided a counterexample, not a disproof, neither of which is necessarily a “new brilliant scientific idea”.

No but the session traces are available. It passes the sniff test considering how AGI-3 is scored and how this wrapper works. For example on bp35 it took fable 290M and >12k simulated turns for 566 real turns and finish more efficiently

Radiologist who does read shoulder MRI would like to add that over half the annotations are wrong, glaring mistakes in anatomy and cardinal direction which begs the question of how is it making these findings without knowing what it’s looki

Ultrasound is very operator dependent. Shoulder ultrasound is very hard. Visualizing the labrum let alone detecting pathology is very very hard and you will miss huge chunks of it due to limited windows. Ignoring all of this, there are few

Half baked images? No one said that is impossible. I am skeptical of any brain ultrasound claim that doesn’t use skull correction which requires a CT scan. Very large chunks of vasculature and major arteries are missing in the images they p

Depends for what reason. I trained in Canada. Studies are triaged priority 1 through 4 in most provinces. Nowhere in Canada is a high priority MRI waiting 2 months.

They are mistaken. I am a practicing radiologist in the US. We regularly work-up findings from private pay whole body screening MRIs and the workups are covered by insurance.
