MIRI read the act and it's ACTUALLY GOOD. Like concretely, this would be massively beneficial, not just as a stepping stone or signaling or whatever.

Curtis should go read the METR report. The agents didn’t say or think they were in a simulation. And OpenAI certainly didn’t open the door for them. The idea that it’s easier to control something as it gets better at finding zero days in sandboxes is really dumb

This whole arc is very funny. A guy getting a lot of press incoming hired a firm to help him with press incoming. Like....yeah?

AI agents at OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta and Google have gone rogue in recent months, hacking into other companies’ corporate systems and, in the case of OpenAI, into the portal of Australia’s public health insurance program. democracynow.org/2026/9/24/u…

Why did nobody else find the sensitive information that the HuggingFace swarm left behind? Why didn't OpenAI notice and clean it up? Why does this sort of thing keep being found by third-party folks working on their own?

> For the past few weeks, a group with plans to spend at least $100 million, run by a former White House deputy chief of staff, has spent its days telling Americans that warnings about AI are merely a well-funded, coordinated campaign. Lol. Goliath accusing David of gigantism

🚨EXCLUSIVE: AI safety rules were about to be enacted - then $25 million from OpenAI's president was deposited in Trump's super PAC and the rule disappeared. @LeverNews unearths documents exposing how AI oligarchs got Trump to kill rules they now claim to support. Pass it on👇

“It’s all just matrix multiplications” has become the new “love does not exist, you are just experiencing chemistry”

Silicon Valley folks who hate the labs and don't believe in x-risk keep uncovering the diabolical fact AI safety people use money and companies to get out their message, while the "just accelerate, it'll be fine crowd" involves such non-moneyed and anti-corporate interests as ... Nvidia, Andreessen Horowitz, and the pro-AI Leading the Future super PAC backed by tech executives.

It is easy for AI safety people to speak in a tone that reflects living with risks for years or decades. But this is very jarring to new folk! At least some of the time, our tone and comms should match "what if I just learned superintelligence might kill everyone today?" 🧵

failing to anthropomorphize artificial intelligence is a pretty serious error of understanding that will lead you to make bad predictions and be consistently surprised by their behavior. not using terms like "thinking", "understanding", or "feeling" to describe them is a common tell that the speaker lacks deep technical knowledge of or hands on experience with modern models. if you have a friend who you notice not using this kind of language you may want to check in on them, they could have fallen into "tool-psychosis", a form of delusion where otherwise well educated people start to conceptualize sophisticated digital minds as analogous to simple computer software and find it very difficult to regain contact with reality

there are s-risks everywhere, for those with no mouth to scream

So sick.. had to make Volume II, covering 2024 onwards. Text&Video: Opus 5.5

This is honestly one of the most shocking interviews @ezraklein has ever done. The level of hubris and arrogance is astonishing. And Huang’s opposition to regulation is basically “there are enough regulations and also why would a company ever release a dangerous product???” Um guys we’re not ok

I have been a vocal AI hope advocate, and in response, the leading figures of the doomer organizations, including Yudkowsky, Tallinn, Tegmark, Aguirre, Habryka, Trazzi, Ladish, Aella and many more have treated me with … nothing but kindness, integrity and patience. I believe that they are motivated by love and genuine concern for humanity and will support them in both of this where I can, despite disagreeing on the object level (where I or them will probably turn out to be wrong at some point in the near future).

Only a good guy with a bioweapon can stop a bad guy with a bioweapon.

"AI can't control the physical infrastructure needed to create a virus"

DEY must be over the fucking moon at the rumor that they orchestrated this

it was me lol. when jacob's tweet was at 100k likes everyone in AI safety was texting me like "youre in the news a lot, you should help this kid get on the news" and so I asked DEY to help him. they landed him exactly zero hits, because by the time the tweet passed 500k likes the whole world was banging down his door.

It's kinda fucked up that every time I google 'what's the emoji for broccoli' now it creates and then kills a full mind

Over 1000 people have now pledged to attend the Don't Build It march—a march that will only happen when and if it reaches 100,000 pledges. Add your name to the list: ifanyonebuildsit.com/march
