<p>I'm somewhat serious -- if you think AI will scale that well, you can't really make predictions like that<p>I personally don't think the weight efficiency will improve that much; if anything big does happen, I expect it to be about scalable architectures and continual learning</p>

<p>ml research, both brainstorming and running experiments<p>eg I'd throw a hypothesis at it in the evening, and overnight it would write the code, do a sanity check, start a run, monitor the metrics, identify and fix a bug, propose a new hypothesis based on the results, write the code and start the second experiment, etc<p>still not that good at generating ideas or drawing conclusions, but much better at criticism than opus<p>even the api price is not that expensive for this</p>

<p>security researchers are using the free tokens that they get to do useful security work, AI labs are giving away free tokens to maximize their profits; is it really that hard to imagine that different parties might have different goals?<p>> We shouldn't look at this and think<p>you're gonna tell me what to think now?</p>

<p>> it's not actually a financially efficient way ... unless you profit from creating demand for LLMs<p>well, they do? it's a win-win, you can't really criticise an AI lab for doing AI instead of straight up giving money to security researchers<p>> If you factor in all the money spent on training<p>why would I? it's not a cybersec-specific model</p>
