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…
