What you're describing is similar to how the copilot harness in vs code tracks state and previous work. These systems are being implemented, bit by bit.

At a certain level, yes, but AI is still so bad at writing that its failures are objective and easily measurable

I suppose that's true. I was thinking of my car, which has a lot of buttons on the steering wheel itself. They're easy to use without looking, since you don't have to change your hand position, and I control music entirely with those.

?

You most certainly can. That doesn't mean people do it 100% of the time.

There are zero touchscreen designs that are better than (physical, tactile) buttons.

You can hit buttons without taking your eyes off the road.

You cannot do this with a touchscreen.

There's no way to design or engineer around it, it's simply the wrong tool for the job.

There is a wonderful teardown of it here:

https://www.vcalc.net/CU-Disassembly/

Scrolling through that makes me think it's extremely unlikely to be replicated commercially. I can't imagine how much machining all of those parts would cost.

There's no way to prove it one way or the other. I would be willing to bet money any recent AAA game was made with AI code in it somewhere, though.

What novel ideas are you thinking of? In my experience there are very few games with novel software engineering. New gameplay mechanics or story or art or design, sure, but they're generally built with very old and standardized patterns.

To my knowledge, all major LLMs are multilingual. This article could really have used an evaluation of existing models' European Portuguese capabilities.

Union busting is easy to do and hard to prove. This would act as a supporting regulation by making it more difficult. I imagine a legal framework similar to other privacy regulations: nothing about specific software or implementations, but instead new classes of data that are illegal to collect or store about your employees. There is complexity there, but something like mouse movements and keystrokes as described in the article is completely black and white.

While you have the right practical approach, I do believe companies should face harsh regulations preventing this kind of monitoring. It has almost universally negative effects, from enabling union-busting to exploitation to all kinds of discrimination and favoritism.

Reliability: complete solar deployment includes some form of power storage. There are many variations, but chemical battery technology is improving the fastest, so it's gaining the most ground.

Amount of power: World solar power generation capacity is in the terawatts and rapidly increasing, there's no issue with its potential ceiling. As a bonus, it tends to work best on land that's useless for other purposes.

If only there were some form of cheap, widely manufactured power generation technology that didn't use turbines... Are they really going to wait until 2030 to get more turbines rather than invest in solar?

China's domestic chips are increasingly close to state-of-the-art. The US electrical grid is... not.

It's not at all clear whether automobiles were a net positive. They are more or less solely responsible for climate change (even emissions not directly from motor vehicles wouldn't be possible without them), which may prove to be the worst mistake in the history of technology.

What? 35B-A3B is not nearly as smart as 27B.

I can see analyzing it from a psychological perspective as a means of predicting its behavior as a useful tactic, but doing so because it may have "experiences or interests that matter morally" is either marketing, or the result of a deeply concerning culture of anthropomorphization and magical thinking.

Sure, most tech companies eliminate some form of human labor. Anthropic aims to eliminate all human labor, which is very different.

They are a for-profit company, working on a project to eliminate all human labor and take the gains for themselves, with no plan to allow for the survival of anyone who works for a living. They're definitionally not your friends. While they remain for-profit, their specific behaviors don't really matter.

>We plan to launch new safeguards with an upcoming Claude Opus model, allowing us to improve and refine them with a model that does not pose the same level of risk as Mythos Preview2.

This seems like the real news. Are they saying they're going to release an intentionally degraded model as the next Opus? Big opportunity for the other labs, if that's true.
