Yudkowsky's mind model for AI alignment research: experiment results

TLDR. Yudkowsky mind-model (sideload) is good, can produce research, but is not better in math than Opus 5.5. However, in my impression, EY-sideload has broader view, knows what is really important to AI safety and has human anchoring. In blind review, EY-sideload won only on honesty, but honesty is important. EY-sideload also produced a good summary of the shutdown problem’s difficulty: “training reduces paid influence over shutdown least where the stakes are highest”. You can find full description of results in Substack article which is AI written. Here is short human-made summary. I put on

Potential improvements to HowTruthful and its agent skills

I followed my own instructions for exploring Massachusetts 2026 ballot question arguments. I figured out how I want to vote. I also figured out some improvements to make to HowTruthful and its associated agent skills . Since users are rating statements' truthfulness on a 1-5 scale, it's not very useful to have a hedged statement like "Massachusetts legislators who run unopposed can take voters for granted and ignore important issues." If the rest of the statement is even a possibility, the word "can" makes the statement as a whole true. The AI skill should change such statements into a definit

Thoughts on Owning a Self-Driving Tesla

My Subaru was showing its years so I recently bought a Tesla. My thinking was I can buy a car or I can buy a car+driver for the same price. Simple choice. I’ve driven about 2000 miles including one long trip (6 hours) to North Carolina and back. FSD is incredible. I don’t mind driving […] The post Thoughts on Owning a Self-Driving Tesla appeared first on Marginal REVOLUTION .

Mum, I’m Alien Pregnant review – slime and silliness in amusing New Zealand comedy horror

Mucus, alien gristle, a tentacle-bearing penis and, of course, the pregnancy of the title are all borne with deadpan calmness in this underplayed comedy In this amusingly silly exercise in gross-out body horror and bathos from New Zealand, thirtysomething underachiever Mary (Hannah Lynch) finds herself unexpectedly pregnant after shy neighbour Boo (Arlo Green) ejaculates on her in the communal laundry room with his tentacle-bearing alien penis (hence the self-explanatory title). We never quite find out why Boo has such outre sex organs, but nothing here should be overthought since it is all ab

‘The output of a lunatic asylum’: what the Bloomsbury group can tell us about mental health

From Virginia Woolf’s horrifying views on eugenics to James Strachey’s seminal translations of Freud, the Bloomsbury set didn’t only experience mental illness, they shaped how society thinks about it ‘As an experience,” Virginia Woolf wrote in 1930, “madness is terrific and not to be sniffed at … In its lava, I still find most of the things I write about.” Woolf’s 1941 suicide by drowning in the River Ouse, her pockets weighted with stones, is usually framed as evidence of her tortured genius. But a new exhibition at Charleston in Lewes radically excavates this narrative while challenging idea

My fiancee, my foreskin and me: the comic who turned adult circumcision into a jaw-dropping show

To be with the woman he loved, Max Olesker had to convert to Orthodox Judaism – which required an unwelcome operation. He relives a painful and sometimes infuriating journey When Max met Eliana at the Edinburgh fringe, the romcom vibes were strong. Shots, songs, falling headlong in love. Less vibey was the conversion Max Olesker had to navigate to marry his Orthodox Jewish beloved. The comedian had always thought of himself as Jewish – when his parents married, his mum converted to a less rigorous branch of Judaism. But to the Beth Din, the rabbinical court, that didn’t count.

‘Music is the most powerful way of connecting to what’s happening’: can this album change your mind about the climate crisis?

With globe-spanning artists – including Charlotte Church doing angry electropop – the Flow project is hoping to make an impact at this month’s Cop31 Amid tense and long-winded negotiations, and with the future of the planet at stake, emotions can often run high at Cop climate summits. But last year, when the annual conference arrived in Brazil, one UN official was unexpectedly moved to tears by five women singing about the power of water. “She gave me a massive hug after the event and said, ‘We need to bring music into Cop,’” says Nikita Llerena, the project manager for Flow, a music collectiv

China’s first AI-generated film is a flop. Some still see it as the future of cinema

Chinese investors placing high value on AI despite unpopularity of Sanxingdui: Future Past China’s first fully AI-generated movie has flopped, earning just 1.7m yuan (£191,000) at the box office despite costing “tens of millions” to make, according to its producer. But is it any good? The Guardian watched Sanxingdui: Future Past in a virtually empty cinema in Beijing, and found it no worse than plenty of human-centred mindless action flicks.

‘A trailblazer in the truest sense’: poet Grace Nichols wins £10,000 Pioneer prize
