CHOTINER: So you're attending a No Kings protest today.
ME: That's right.
CHOTINER: But according to Steam, you've played over 450 hours of Crusader Kings 3.
ME: Okay, well- Now hold on. That's sort of unfair.
CHOTINER: Oh?
ME: Sometimes I play as a duke or a count.
CHOTINER: I see.

I am recruiting PhD students to start in 2026! If you are interested in robustness, training dynamics, interpretability for scientific understanding, or the science of LLM analysis you should apply. BU is building a huge LLM analysis/interp group and you’ll be joining at the ground floor.
Life update: I'm starting as faculty at Boston University
@bucds.bsky.social in 2026! BU has SCHEMES for LM interpretability & analysis, I couldn't be more pumped to join a burgeoning supergroup w/ @najoung.bsky.social @amuuueller.bsky.social. Looking for my first students, so apply and reach out!

"X% of code written by AI" seems like a silly metric without asking:
- how much of your code is written by other people
- how much of your code is written by the compiler
- how much of your code is written by other people
- how much of your code is written by the compiler

what's stupid about "upskill w/ AI or die" is that we're currently talking about at best a ~25% productivity gain. that's probably in the same category as "learning all your IDE features", but govts / corps aren't in a full panic to push LSP onto everyone
