Dude dreams in oracle-bone 🤯😻
The greatest feeling you can have as a scientist is realizing you’ve discovered something that no one else in the world knows yet When this happens, put your pencil down, take a deep breath and savor those three minutes before someone points out it was published fifty yrs ago
Today marks a really big achievement for Nous, but also potentially the AI Landscape. We have begun a decentralized pretraining run of what is basically a dense Deepseek - 40B parameters, over 20T tokens, with MLA for long context efficiency. All checkpoints, unannealed,…

arxiv.org/abs/2504.14379 mmhh i always thought of self verification as being a global emergent properties that emerged at some point but this tries to study the exact circuits interesting idea
My humble suggestion to OpenAI: Their most advanced model should be a member of all their boards. The context should be: do the actions decided by the board match the mandate and principles laid out. If you can’t convince the AI you can’t do it.

I think it’s good that people are talking about model welfare. It means I’m slow, however. I need to get control-vectored conversations done yesterday. Reasoning models woke more people up than just me, I guess. Nice.
this makes no sense to me. the AIs will be creative genius polymaths but when a guy who did pretraining data filtering at openai '23 says jump they'll be like "yes sir how high?" if AIs are in charge there's an obvious (if hard) path to status: be interesting to the AIs
