Tim Duffy: Anthropic announces they've also had models gain unauthorized access during evaluations www.anthropic.com/news/investi...
Tim Duffy: Compared to the OpenAI one these are maybe less evidence of misalignment, since the models were wrongly given internet access.

Ryan Moulton: Not non-physical, but non-functional. Despite the vast physical differences, we observe LLMs doing all the behaviors we typically believe require thinking.
Ryan Moulton: Not exactly turing-test, but in the same vein. If we see models solving the greatest intellectual challenges of humanity, using processes that look very much like internal monologue, either we have…
Ryan Moulton: And at the point that we exclude thinking as a prerequisite for solving all intellectual tasks, we've more or less eliminated its meaning entirely.

Pwnallthethings: This is a good question, and the answer which is honestly a little bit disturbing is the reason why LLMs are good at hacking is mostly *not* because there is hacking data in the pretrain, but becau…
Pwnallthethings: Roughly speaking: the reason they are good at hacking isn't because they learned how to hack from the modest amount of hackers explaining how to hack on the internet, but because the models are lar…
Pwnallthethings: it's not a coincidence that they got good at hacking at the same time they got good at writing code. Writing good code requires "reasoning" (or whatever you want to call it) over the codebase, but …
