There are very little people in the world that understand llms on such a deep technological level as Ilya.

I honestly don’t think there is much else in the world he is interested in doing other then work on aligning powerful ai.

Wether his almost anti commercial style end up accomplishing much i don't know but his intention are literal and clear.

Clickbait be clickbait and half the site is probably ai generated. I wont defend the hyperbole.

Theres is a debate you can have to what attributes to seeing in relation to perception. Our mind has a lot of tricks to get around the restrictions of our eyes.

Its a shame how enshitification erodes this conversation.

Its not about wavelength but about peoples ability to perceive and distinguish.

Blue is a rare pigment in nature so in most ancient cultures its often being categorized as a shade of green.

To give you an example of the opposite:

The Himba tribe of Namibia is known for their unique perception of color, particularly in how they differentiate shades of green. Research has shown that the Himba are more adept at distinguishing between various shades of green that many “civilized” might see as similar.

I don't think coverage appropriate hairline is something that is on this guys mind.

To me he just scream massive (autistic) nerd. And i am all the more confident and supportive of him for it.

We need more smart people that dont care about appearance and charisma in leadership positions. I am not saying those are not useful in leaderships but theres to much of it in ~~the tech~~ industry .

He’s the guy that tried to stay true to the mission, realized that Sam was becoming a problem. Had little business sense to calculate the drama that ensued.

Realized that openAI getting destroyed in a single week was worse then having Sam run it. (Micrososoft and google where just going to gobble up the void)

Then was forced into compliance by Sam who had conditions to return. Add in the fact there long time Personal friends, Sam is a super high level speaker while Ilya usually keeps to themselves. The super stressful days everyone was on during the times.

You may understand why he didn’t want to continue fighting and just eased into a slow leave to do better elsewhere.

Before privacy guides changed there was a spreadsheet with all providers, security details and wether or not they have ever complied to government requesting access.

If i recall correctly proton did not score very great. Disroot did very well on paper but was considered new and had yet to proof itself

Anyone know if this (updated) information still exists?

Its true i do worry about shit ai being plastered within our devices but if you cut through the marketing you see a whole mix of machine learning and ai is used under the hood.

Some of these tools like ms paint auto removing backgrounds. And personal assistant like siri talking more fluently does seem like an improvement.

I have no hopes for winfows rewind but even for that we must admit its not actually available yet. Neither is apple ai.

So we are simply assuming that all of the tools they may put in are bad based on some current stupid ideas that are explored.

I commend you for believing most people know the difference.

Sadly thats not my experience.

The reporting are big clickbait but that doesn’t mean there is nothing left to learn from the old touring tests.

I dont know what the goal was they had in mind. It could just as well be “testing how overhyped the touring tests is when manipulated tests are shared with the media”

I sincerely doubt it but i do give them benefits of the doubt.

There is no competition in science (or at least there shouldn't be). You are subjectively disqualified from judging llm's if you draw your conclusions on an obvious trap which you yourself have stated is beyond the scope of what it was programmed to do.

To clarify:

People seem to legit think the jury talks to the bot in real time and can ask about literally whatever they want.

Its rather insulting to the scientist that put a lot of thought into organizing a controlled environment to properly test defined criteria.

In a normal conversation sure.

In this kind Turing tests you may be disqualified as a jury for asking that question.

Good science demands controlled areas and defined goals. Everyone can organize a homebrew touring tests but there also real proper ones with fixed response times, lengths.

Some touring tests may even have a human pick the best of 5 to provide to the jury. There are so many possible variations depending on test criteria.
