Will AI cause mass unemployment? It's not a scientific question, it's a design problem. If we build systems to be operated by + amplify *current* workers there won't be mass unemployment, if we build systems that displace them there will be. Both are difficult and distinct design…

Anecdotal evidence for an issue AI safety researchers raised for a while. Self-supervised learning yields models that pick up on subtle clues that they are being evaluated.Implies that current RLHF methodology is insufficient for aligning the systems we'll build in the next years

This is one of the few problems with AI that *get worse* at scale (=one we should actually worry about). Increasing model capacity makes it feasible/optimal to "pretend" to be aligned within the RLHF domain, while remaining pretraining-loss-optimal outside the RLHF domain.

We now know how to teach AI a causal world model by letting it watch online videos. That's right: it infers a latent action space without seeing any ground-truth actions. It's hard to overstate what how this will play out over the next years. I'm calling generally intelligent…

Unbelievable: the North Atlantic sea surface temperature is now 4.5 standard deviations above the recent 1991-2020 climatological mean... that translates to a 1-in-284,000-year event. Yet here we are watching it unfold, one day at a time. This is deeply troubling.
anyone remember the 2018 "Large-Scale Study of Curiosity-Driven Learning" paper calling it 'a limitation' that their agent gets stuck in front of a TV? This was literally baby AGI telling us it needs to do self-supervised learning on videos
Nothing to see here, definitely no reason to think trying to make LLMs “safe” by training them extensively on behaviors-to-avoid will backfire

to me, findings like these suggest we may think of LLMs (&multimodal successors) as a discovery, rather than as engineered objects. we try to approximate/study/tame a platonic ideal: "the neural net that is least surprised by the next bit on the internet". the design space is…

A compelling intuition is that deep learning does approximate Solomonoff induction, finding a mixture of the programs that explain the data, weighted by complexity. Finding a more precise version of this claim that's actually true would help us understand why deep learning works…
If SSMs like Mamba really replace transformers, then prompting LLMs will become funny. Before reading documents, the model has to be told what it's reading them for, else it will pay attention inefficiently. There will be lots of re-reading prompting techniques. And value in…

I find it funny when people complain about “difficult people”. I feel like my whole life has been focused on how to work best with “difficult people”. It’s my professional moat. In my experience, all truly capable people are difficult in some way. Deal with it!
This paper shows when, why, how, and how much trade agreements can help in motivating environmental conservation, instead of exploitation, if a typical agreement is modified so that tariffs can be contingent on resource stocks (/forest cover). (It builds "Trade and Trees", AER:I)
Although free trade can lead to deforestation, tariffs that are contingent on the forest cover, where default tariffs can vary with changes in the resource stock, can motivate conservation, from @BardHarstad nber.org/papers/w32392
