Had an interesting, hard interview with @adamconover.net on his podcast. I think he is a great example of a smart AI skeptic.
My main messages were that AI is a really big deal, it has good & bad impacts, and that, by sitting things out, skeptics can’t guide use. open.spotify.com/episode/5cFK...

Can someone point me to the correct and accepted forum or where an adult can discuss science in a constructive way with other adults... because reddit can get fucked. where are the people that don't require pictures with their storybooks... Where are the adults? Genuinely confused with the push back

This work is directly aimed at formalizing a path to AGI. It treats general intelligence not as a fixed architecture, but as a recursive process of information accumulation under structured observation protocols

This framework (Operational Recursive Intelligence: URIF, RCM, and RGE with Ethical Regularization) explains how intelligent systems accumulate knowledge through a recursive cycle of selecting observa...

OAI over here just gaming the scoreboard.might make benchmarks look cleaner, but we’re still just rewarding guesswork. The models still have no explicit uncertainty handling out of the box. Why does it feel like no one knows what they are doing?
Why language models hallucinate
OpenAI’s new research explains why language models hallucinate. The findings show how improved evaluations can enhance AI reliability, honesty, and safety.
