The class ends with a discussion of what AI alignment means in a pluralistic world, and -- now that students understand it well enough -- a critique of the descriptive and normative validity of standard theories of rationality.

A summary of the paper we wrote up on The Other Site -- we argue that AI alignment has to move beyond a conception of alignment that is focused on human preferences / utility / reward!

Examining news on 7 platforms:
1)Right-leaning platforms=lower quality news
2)Echo-platforms: Right-leaning news gets more engagement on right-leaning platforms, vice-versa for left-leaning
3)Low-quality news gets more engagement EVERYWHERE - even BlueSky!

Across social media sites, political posting is tightly linked to affective #polarization - the most partisan users post the most

As casual users disengage & polarized partisans remain vocal, the online public sphere grows smaller, sharper, and more ideologically extreme

Finland has a goal to be net zero GHG emissions by 2035.

Emissions were declining, the LULUCF removals were strong, the plan was looking good, but then LULUCF collapsed.

Net GHG emissions have actually risen over the last decade!

We built the simplest possible social media platform. No algorithms. No ads. Just LLM agents posting and following.

It still became a polarization machine.

Then we tried six interventions to fix social media.

The results were… not what we expected.

Ukrainan tukemisen vaihtoehtoiskustannus?

Ukrainalaisen pakolaisen kustannus EU:ssa on n.€12,000–€25,000 vuodessa (lähde: Brugel)
Jos Ukraina romahtaa ja 60% väestöstä (22M) pakeenee EU:n alueelle kustannus on €260-€550 miljardia vuodessa.

Harmittamaan jäi vain se, että oman tutkimusalan esimerkissä vaihtoehtoiskustannus on jonkinlainen mielipide-asia eikä todellinen kustannus.

Tietenkin se on aito kustannus myös alla olevassa esimerkissä ja tuki on tukea.

Nykyisessä maailmantilanteessa EU:n on poistettava Venäjältä veto-oikeus EU:n päätöksenteossa. On joko poistettava yksimielisyyden vaatimus tai on karsittava jäseniä tai vietävä ääni oikeus EU:n periaatteita rikkovilta jäseniltä. Äärivaihtoehto on lakkauttaa EU ja perustaa se uudestaan.

🚨New paper! We know models learn distinct in-context learning strategies, but *why*? Why generalize instead of memorize to lower loss? And why is generalization transient?

Our work explains this & *predicts Transformer behavior throughout training* without its weights! 🧵

Merz's 'dirty work' remark is appalling (as is the apparent quiet approval by other Europeans). It's like people openly admit that this whole 'rules-based thing' is just a pretense.
