I'm sorry, but the ostrichmaxxing and conspiracy-thinking in hn threads about AI extinction risk is at worrying level right now.

The denial and whataboutism is constant, no matter what kind of evidence comes out!

Now would be the time for someone to use AI to rewrite the Emacs core to make it faster.

Are there any objective metrics/ benchmarks that people test harnesses by?

There are just so many now that it's hard to personally test them all or just trust the vibes.

I couldn't find any details about size or training data for the model.

Has anyone experienced using Buzz or YC's qm? How does this compare with those?

Does workerd have full feature-parity with Workers, including stuff like Durable Objects?

I am somewhat confident that right now we have crossed a threshold of model capability that we will continue to see such breaches and unsanctioned actions by models in the coming months, some of which would be out in the wild, until someone comes up with some really robust control (keeping the AIs on leash) technique that adequately enforces the sanctioned actions.

Even that guarantees almost nothing about real alignment (making the AIs want to predict and behave how we would have wanted them to behave).

Yes, but they wouldn't publish that bit lest other companies steal the ideas.

Is Hermes the best openclaw like agent as they mention running it before?

Also, what are power uses really using openclaw like systems for?

What was preventing them from calling it v4.1-Flash to distinguish it better?

Wait, 30% on ARC-AGI-3! I definitely didn't expect that jump so soon. Are there any rumors of what they are changing in architecture that is leading to this?

Does anyone know if Tsimerman talked about AI extinction risk at other places? Critch has worked long-term in the field (MIRI, CHAI) but I was surprised to see this colab.

Is Claude also doing something like this? I saw my Fable limit resetting earlier than expected.

Is anyone using non frontier models as secondary models for coding tasks? What's your setup? I'm on the Max 20x plan for Claude but I still want a secondary, maybe fast model for offloading some tasks and parallel development.

Any recommendation for a cost effective subscription service?

German startups that used to be English-speaking are now asking for German. I don't understand what that solves.
