Language models (LMs) often struggle to generate diverse, human-like creative content, raising concerns about the long-term homogenization of human thought through repeated exposure to similar outputs

What Claude Code Actually Chooses

Mass domestic surveillance.

Fully autonomous weapons

ASL-1 refers to systems which pose no meaningful catastrophic risk, for example a 2018 LLM or an AI system that only plays chess.ASL-2 refers to systems that show early signs of dangerous capabilities – for example ability to give instructions on how to build bioweapons – but where the information is not yet useful due to insufficient reliability or not providing information that e.g. a search engine couldn’t. Current LLMs, including Claude, appear to be ASL-2.ASL-3 refers to systems that substantially increase the risk of catastrophic misuse compared to non-AI baselines (e.g. search engines or textbooks) OR that show low-level autonomous capabilities.ASL-4 and higher (ASL-5+) is not yet defined as it is too far from present systems, but will likely involve qualitative escalations in catastrophic misuse potential and autonomy.

OIDC is functionally equivalent to "magic link" authentication.We send a secret to a place that only the person trying to identify themselves can access, and they prove that they can access that place by showing us the secret.

They just engraved the 32 layers of Llama 3.1 sequentially on a chip. Essentially, the model's weights are physical transistors etched into the silicon.

The loss scales as a power-law with model size, dataset size, and the amount of compute used for training

This cohort study among Black and White men and women found that taking at least 7000 steps/d during middle adulthood was associated with a lower risk of mortality.

word2vec is an algorithm that transforms words into vectors, so that words with similar meanings end up laying close to each other. Moreover, it allows us to use vector arithmetics to work with analogies, for example, the famous king - man + woman = queen.
