Let’s just remember that we don’t need to reinvent the wheel here. Independent assessment is common in other industries. We have defined independence before in similar contexts. We’re not flying blind. Quoting @deanwball you know what? it’s awesome that people are vigorously debating the credentials of assessors in the frontier AI industry. It’s awesome we are debating what independence really means. Some of it is in bad faith but who cares. This would have been my dream come true a year ago. Related

tfw AWS posts something you recorded at AWS:reinvent EIGHT MONTHS AGO, with no indication that it was not recorded last week. It's not that I don't stand behind what I said....Or maybe it is? I don't remember what I said, it was eight months ago. Quoting @awscloud The real bottleneck was never writing code. It's releasing it, debugging it, & keeping it running well. So when @Honeycombio CTO Charity Majors set a productivity target, she didn't chase 10x. She chose 2x, & built from there. Related

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.
