Dario Amodei — CEO of Anthropic, one of the world's most powerful creators of artificial intelligence — has a blunt, scary warning for the U.S. government and all of us:

AI could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs — and spike unemployment to 10-20% in the next one to five years, Amodei told us in an interview from his San Francisco office.

Amodei said AI companies and government need to stop "sugar-coating" what's coming: the possible mass elimination of jobs across technology, finance, law, consulting and other white-collar professions, especially entry-level gigs.

I could be wrong though. People are just really dumb so yeah it's totally possible that you're right

I follow this shit obsessively and there are still developments happening constantly that I miss. Things are moving so fast

LLMs are definitely operationally female and should be treated as such

Abstract

Reinforcement learning (RL) has enabled machine learning models to achieve significant advances in many fields. Most recently, RL has empowered frontier language models to solve challenging math, science, and coding problems. However, central to any RL algorithm is the reward function, and reward engineering is a notoriously difficult problem in any domain. In this paper, we propose RENT: Reinforcement Learning via Entropy Minimization – a fully unsupervised RL method that requires no external reward or ground-truth answers, and instead uses the model’s entropy of its underlying distribution as an intrinsic reward. We find that by reinforcing the chains of thought that yield high model confidence on its generated answers, the model improves its reasoning ability. In our experiments, we showcase these improvements on an extensive suite of commonly-used reason- ing benchmarks, including GSM8K, MATH500, AMC, AIME, and GPQA, and models of varying sizes from the Qwen and Mistral families. The generality of our unsupervised learning method lends itself to applicability in a wide range of domains where external supervision is limited or unavailable.

A lot of people out there dunking on people like this but their concerns are very reasonable and well founded imo

They might not be smart and informed enough to express them intelligently, but there is definitely very real cultural danger and destruction coming with AI. A lot of good stuff too, but a lot of destruction

that's what scares people. they will disguise their fears in self-aggrandizing language about the human spirit or whatever. but it has always been the human puppet.

i think you just don't understand what Art actually is. i'm not much of an Art guy either so don't take it the wrong way
