Just to add: it fits well with the same attitudes that led to DOGE, MAHA, etc. An absolute conviction that the gang in power, who are not experts in anything at all, know better than the experts.

Britain should be a country that makes things. It's how we create good jobs, give more opportunities to young people, and build pride in our communities. That's why today’s announcement from McLaren matters. They’re backing Britain, keeping design, engineering and manufacturing here at home - with plans to build their engines in-house for the first time. Their £500m investment will drive growth far beyond their factory gates, creating a thousand jobs, supporting thousands more in the supply chain, and providing apprenticeships to young people.

It's a bad idea. If you dictate scientists just what to work on, you will get a low return on investment. The current science funding schemes ALREADY have this problem: pour money into some specific program, see scientists produce something that fits into the program to get the money --> topic is overcrowded with incremental and nonsense research that mostly leads nowhere. It's inefficient for the same reason planned economies are inefficient. Scientists need MORE freedom to do what they want, not less.

The most meaningful relationships are achieved when you and others can speak openly to each other about everything that's important, learn together, and understand the need to hold each other accountable to be as excellent as you can be. When you have such relationships with those you work with, you pull each other through challenging times; at the same time, sharing challenging work draws you closer and strengthens your relationships. This self-reinforcing cycle creates the success that allows you to pursue more and more ambitious goals. #principleoftheday Related

Writer on habits and decision-making; author of Atomic Habits and the 3-2-1 newsletter, and publisher of long-running book recommendation lists.
The loser has more in common with the winner than with the person sitting on the sidelines. The winner and the loser each had the courage to try. Both risked embarrassment. Both were willing to face uncertainty. Both were stubborn enough to continue. Success is endurance in disguise. It belongs to the person who can absorb the losses without absorbing the identity of "loser." It's the courage to start — and to stick with it — that is the real separator. Results tend to find the person who stays in the game. The sidelines are safe, but sterile. Nothing grows there. Related

I don't think anyone seriously advocates "let anyone post whatever", but rather the question is (as so often) who is responsible. If the author themselves say they don't fully understand what some AI has proved, and it's wrong, then whose fault is that? Does the arXiv get the blame for allowing the content? Fwiw, I think that in this case AI solves more problems than it creates. If a paper is plausibly correct and lives up to the standards of the field, and the author has done their best, even if written by AI, why not just post it in a 'mostly AI' subsector (maybe just an extra flag for each… Quoting @Quasilocal To everyone now claiming arXiv should let everyone freely post whatever: you already have venues like that.

Essayist, journalist and independent researcher on Chinese politics, strategy and cultural history; author of the blog The Scholar's Stage.
With all respect to Chris, who has done much great work in this area, I do not agree. A Global Times “quick take” editorial is not the sort of government communique that “clearly and unmistakably” communicates anything. Between them the PRC government and the CPC have many organs and forums more authoritative than this, all better suited for drawing lines in the sand. A GT editorial should not be dismissed, but it is worth asking—if Xi’s mind was made up on the matter, why he would choose *this* uncertain venue to make point? Were I to sift the tea leaves, I would say this: to me this looks l… Quoting @ChrisRMcGuire The Chinese government has now clearly and unmistakably rejected serious collaboration with the United States on AI safety. This was a predictable development. It is also a clarifying moment for the importance of U.S. export controls on AI chips and other technologies, which are now indisputably a… government Related

> One could even define intelligence as the efficiency with which one converts experience into competence; by this definition they lag very far behind us Yes, one could define intelligence in this way, and one would be right. By this metric current AI is approximately 6 OOMs less intelligent than humans. Your ancestors' evolutionary history did not prepare you for Python programming, yet you can learn to competently program in Python in a few hundreds of hours. An LRM needs the training data equivalent of ~1B hours (on top of all of its non-programming related training data). Another dimensio… Quoting @DKokotajlo Dan Selsam is a current OpenAI capabilities researcher. (since 2022) He was my boss for a while.

By recognizing the higher-level consequences nature optimizes for, I've come to see that people who overweigh the first-order consequences of their decisions and ignore the effects of second- and subsequent-order consequences rarely reach their goals. This is because first-order consequences often have opposite desirabilities from second-order consequences, resulting in big mistakes in decision making. #principleoftheday Related

New week new demo! Today I want to showcase the CLI to control the @superlogical multiplexer. The CLI is an extremely powerful tool for automation and hooking into other tools like editors, agentic coding tools, and more. And, it's super fun! Everything you can do in the GUI, you can do via the CLI. Actually, you can do more in the CLI. You can create sessions, run commands, make splits, move things around, change focus, simulate any input device (key/mouse/etc.), wait on scripts, and more. There are a couple unique parts of Rex I'm showing off here too: our streaming event system that any cl… Related
Nothing matches. Show everything
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
