I'm surprised that OpenAI Comms would approve this: GPT-5 "foreshadows a recursive self-improvement loop" In OpenAI's Preparedness Framework, recursive self-improvement is a Critical risk (if at a certain rate), which would call to "halt further development"

OpenAI claims to have introduced a new safety feature for GPT-5, but OpenAI has had this feature since 2021 I'm sad OpenAI is implying they created this for GPT-5, which they didn't. It's hard to rely on AI companies' System Cards when there's incentive to overclaim. (thread)

This is good to hear!

Great analysis from @Kantrowitz and @mgsiegler today re the OpenAI-Microsoft “AGI Clause”, and how MSFT’s ‘prohibition from pursuing AGI’ has likely affected the messaging both companies use, dilution of AI words, etc

OpenAI should say it clearly and publicly: Sometimes profits will conflict with the non-profit mission OpenAI legally bound itself to. Will OpenAI be required to put the mission first, or will its restructure remove this obligation?

This is kind of hilarious if true A billion dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? Optimizing Instagram Reels to be ever more enticing to the eyeballs

Mark seems to think it's important whether Meta *directs* superintelligence toward mass automation of work This is not correct; if you "bring personal superintelligence to everyone" (including business-owners), they will personally choose to automate others' work, if they can

Crazy to reflect on the three global AI competitions going on right now: - 1. US political leadership have made AI a prestige race, echoing the Space Race. It's cool and important and strategic, and they're going to Win. - 2. For Chinese leadership AI is part of economic strength, soft power and influence. Technology is shared, developing economies will be built on Chinese fundamental tech, the Chinese economy and trade relations will grow. Weakening trust in a capricious US is an easy opportunity to take advantage of. - 3. The AGI companies are racing something they think will out-think humans across the board, that they don't yet know how to control, and think might literally kill everyone. Scariest of all is that it's not at all clear to decision-makers that these three things are happening in parallel. They think they're playing the same game, but they're not.
