I would say in this case abliteration is the likely culprit. To uncensor a model this way, you literally deactivate the parts that would enact refusals. As in things it was told not to do. But the real process is more like brain surgery per

You'll need tons of tokens for these to churn through heavy reasoning and feedback driven tasks. You might even want to run many agents in parallel. Combine that with GPU memory requirements in the terabyte range just to hold the weigh

GLM 5.3 is probably the best open weight model for cybersecurity/exploit development right now. Though it is still significantly behind the proprietary ones and you probably need your own datacenter to run it effectively. Same goes for

This kind of argument is always dangerous, because it essentially resorts to moving goalposts. "Oh, AI can now do X? Sure it is amazing, but it can't do Y yet, so we're totally safe!" Just because humans can't proce

That feels oddly similar to the usual conservative-think that "guns don't kill people, people kill people." Yes, that is technically true. But guns make it dangerously easy for even the dumbest and mentally weakest people to

Not to mention 13 em-dashes in a 500 word post. At this point you may as well ask Claude yourself about news and cut out the middleman. That'll also cut into their attempts to manipulate your opinion.

But they didn't know which problem had a possible solution. So they fired it at a huge amount of problems and then merely focused on the one that turned out to be promising. The model found the promising path itself, they just re-all

Technically it's any medium. The lower the refractive index, the closer the particle needs to travel to the speed of light in vacuum. But you can for example measure Cherenkov Radiation in the air (where n~=1.0003 or 99.97% of c) from

Especially with the current rate of progress, you asking ChatGPT today probably means you'll get a way better answer than whatever the author got using a model from last year.

That's more or less what they did according to their announcement. They fired it at a whole bunch of high end math problems and merely concentrated all efforts on one after it made some promising progress.

The singularity is just a bookshelf and love can act as space-time GPS amirite? Slap it on a Möbius strip on and make it a flashy wearable, then you basically have the last Avengers movie too.

It is not difficult to construct geometries with naked singularities. Reissner, Nordström, Weyl and others individually came up with one long before Oppenheimer. You can also construct geometries where faster than light travel is possible.
