Though, unlike the creators of benchmarks like Terminal Bench or ARC AGI, the Artificial Analysis Index team does not seem to have deep technical or ML backgrounds. They are ex-strategy consultants, McKinsey, et. al.

Claude often makes better looking interfaces and designs. And I think OpenAI has solved more open math/ stats/ CS problems.

In 1934, David Hilbert, by then a grand old man of German mathematics, was dining with Bernhard Rust, the Nazi minister of education. Rust asked, “How is mathematics at Göttingen, now that it is free from the Jewish influence?” Hilbert replied, “There is no mathematics in Göttingen anymore.”

Meanwhile, this is the blog of our earliest work from January that will be published in ICML24: https://blog.allenai.org/data-driven-discovery-with-large-ge...

Also if you are interested - happy to correspond more by email. Lot more to share privately.

This is already being used by a few hundred scientists in a lab. We are aiming to extend to thousands next year with a focus on CS, climate & bio.

I am using these tools to send custom personal messages to close friends and family.

Honestly, Sam is, along with Steve Jobs, the founder I refer to most when I'm advising startups. On questions of design, I ask "What would Steve do?" but on questions of strategy or ambition I ask "What would Sama do?"

What I learned from meeting Sama is that the doctrine of the elect applies to startups. It applies way less than most people think: startup investing does not consist of trying to pick winners the way you might in a horse race. But there are a few people with such force of will that they're going to get whatever they want.

I was in a Ph.D. program at a top CS school and there are ways to transition your visa when building a startup. It was that I was not sure if the transition or the startup would work out - that startup did not - but years later another one did.

I would probably not have taken the plunge out of academia and not achieved much else had it not been for him. And I am deeply grateful for that.

It forever tuned me in to the ethos of Silicon Valley. And I have tried paying back where I can.

And this is besides the other stuff that search ones can’t do directly but it does quite well. It has definitely cut web searches for me.
