Can you share more about the guardrails you have to keep AI in check?

The US has a structure that makes it possible to change the government, China has president for life and one party rule.

In the Tested review, they got 5ms latency with the dedicated wifi stick! I believe that was with 250mbit streaming. If they set it to max streaming bandwidth, it was 50ms or so.

They are using foveated streaming where they track where your eye is looking and only stream that part at full resolution.

They also have a dedicated wifi stick that directly connects to the frame in addition to using your normal wifi network.

The same was said about our current president, there was no chance he could win, and look where we are.

I can just about guarantee there will be several progressives running in '28, potentially AOC as one of them.

Even if a progressive doesn't win the nomination, whoever does could be pushed toward the progressive direction.

Also don't forget two years is a long time and things can change fast.

This seems like a replay of what happened with DeepSeek. They put out v3, or whichever one it was, and everyone said it was over for US companies... then everything continued on.

We still have elections and things can change. China would require a violent revolution to change governments.

> They also bragged (for Fable) about how they "ran an external bug bounty that produced no universal jailbreaks in over 1,000 hours of testing" only for it be circumvented almost immediately.

Where did you see there was a universal jailbreak?

How do you weigh the DOD fight against warning about Mythos' dangers when determining what made Anthropic 'the tall poppy'?

I feel like I woke up from a coma and all the sudden people are taking the administration at their word. I'm so confused.

"Response rates for this data collection were relatively low, both for the United States and for several other participating countries. There is evidence that procedures implemented to reduce bias associated with nonresponse have done so, and that the data are representative of the population. However, readers should be aware of the potential for bias and use caution when interpreting PIAAC results."

These stats don't pass the smell test. About a third of people in the US have a bachelor's degree, but only 13% can pass level 4/5 literacy challenge? If you dig into the sample questions, they are not hard. A level 4 task has the person read a short article and pull out the criticisms of some products.

I know not everyone with a bachelor's degree is 'smart' but it's hard to believe 2/3rds couldn't pass level 4/5.

Also 13% have a master's degree, does that mean those 13% are the only people passing level 4/5?

During COVID my company had mandatory days off (I think 14) if you reported any COVID symptoms. Those days were unpaid of course. The cherry on top is the people paid the lowest were the ones who couldn't work from home and were most likely to get COVID. This was pretty common at other places too.

> 100% of today’s SWE tasks are done by the models.

I do think he was overstating the current state of the models by a bit, but this is taken out of context. He is not saying this is where the models are at today.

He gives a spectrum [18:30] of the models taking over the SWE jobs:

- Model writes 90% of code (today)

- Model writes 100% of code

- Model does 90% of today's SWE tasks (end-to-end)

- Model does 100% of today's SWE tasks

- The SWE job creates new tasks that didn't exist before

- Model does the new SWE tasks as well (90% reduction in demand for SWE)
