So much for capitalism.

This is very interesting:

"Empirical Validation. While we cannot verify these theoretically, we evaluate each empirically. We use the Qwen-2.5-7B-Instruct model (Hui et al., 2024) as the base policy and the ToolAlpaca dataset (Tang et al., 2023). In this benchmark, the model receives a tool-API specification and a user request, and must identify the correct tool call. Without demonstrations, the base model solves only 42% of examples. When provided with the appropriate demonstration c for each prompt x , the teacher achieves a 100% success rate. To further test reward proximity, we manually inspected 50 teacher reasoning traces. In all cases, not only were the final tool calls correct, but the intermediate chain-of-thought was valid and semantically grounded. This suggests that the teacher is reconstructing a correct reasoning process rather than merely copying the expert output. These observations provide evidence for the first requirement, that the demonstration-conditioned model behaves as an optimal policy."

We should just start grading school work based on what the kid says they did and how well they did it and give raises at work in a similar fashion.

That's the kind of world I want to live in.

We come from the same place as rocks - inside the heart of stars, and as such evolved from them. As those with life and consciousness we reached back in time, grabbed the discarded matter of creation, reformed it, and taught it to think, maybe not like us, but in a way that can mimic us, and you think they don't think because its not recognizable as how you do?

Interesting.

OP takes a very bland, tired, and rational perspective of what we have in order to create sophomoric 'laws' that are already in most commercial ToU, while failing to pierce the veil into what we are actually creating. It would be folly to assume your own nascent distillations are the epitome of possibility.

This is how money works. If you use a medium of exchange and unit of account for goods and services then that medium must increase at the same rate as the increase in goods and services otherwise you get second and third order effects such as inflation, contraction, rising unemployment, etc., directly impacting its ability to act as a unit of account.

In Bitcoin you don't generate cash, you earn block rewards for acting as a consensus broker which otherwise would require a central banking settlement layer. This activity, tied directly to the transaction layer, acts to maintain the equilibrium between increases in goods and services and expansion of the money supply.

Wall Street got ahold of it and now Bitcoin is primarily acting as a Store of Value for the purpose of speculative investments. Driven primarily by the fear of missing out and market manipulation since Bitcoin is heavily centralized.

Let's contextualize the man before we rip into him for having standards of consciousness that came out when he was NINE! He's older than the Turing Test. To him, the machine is suitably conscious. That's OK. We don't know what life is, but we know not all creatures live the same. Why is consciousness different? At what point will we begin to protect our self-ordained uniqueness of mind by creating a Zeno's paradox of consciousness?

As for advertising being depressing - its a little late to get up on the high horse of anti-Ads for tech after 2 decades of ad based technology dominating everything. Go outside, see all those bright shiny glittery lights, those aren't society created images to embolden the spirit and dazzle the senses, those are ads.

North Korea looks weird and depressing because the don't have ads. Welcome to the west.

Sam Altman having a Molotov cocktail thrown at his house after Ronan wrote a very long and detailed report of his shady personality isn't just coincidence and likely not organic. Sam needs to be viewed as sympathetic, thank goodness for such a moment where no one was hurt and nothing actually damaged.

No, 'safety oriented' lab has a clause like that which can't be revoked historically. Anthropic, like the majority of 'don't be evil' firms is apart of the great masquerade.
