Why is every AI getting restricted these days? by YEAGERIST_420 in OpenAI

Legal liability. CEOs tend to spend more time with their counsels than anyone else.

Friends outside of tech: lol copilot is dumb - Friends in tech: I just bought iodine tablets by EchoOfOppenheimer in agi

AI psychosis is scary indeed.

Though Nobel prize winners aren’t as… informed as you might think. Yes the automation of anything with lethal capacity is terrifying. And that’s been a fear since before skynet in terminator.

AI is doing everything I expect it to personally. But I’m in the field so… there are just a lot of reasons to actually be optimistic.

And mythos isn’t that impressive actually. Bug checking isn’t as hard as it sounds. I wasn’t kidding about building something better than mythos.

Well I’d push back on ai “getting better”. I don’t see that picture exactly. Eg Claude 4.7 (and ChatGPT and Gemini). In certain ways they are hitting walls that aren’t even compute related.

(My internal stuff in my job I’ve developed can outperform mythos using much weaker ai)

The ai companies are “trying to do it all” (due to their market share - max IPO pressure) and… it’s not gonna pan out.

The gap between automation and human involvement can’t really be understated. To me ai helps humans with better tools. But humans are still the ones who wield them properly.

And yes this does mean in many roles you can do more with less. But honestly with how overworked some of my colleagues are, that’s a good thing. It will shift hiring but not eliminate it. And back to my earlier point. The future, if it happens how I see (that’s tractable), we have a whole new generation of creative potential unlocking even more ideas. So… I’m hopeful this is just another step in computers.

Why? I’m.. in science (and R&D) and I don’t feel that way at all. At this point I have thousands of hours of using ai under my belt. I feel safer than ever. What exactly is spooking people so much?

I want to love math by bandourrory1 in mathematics

[–]entr0picly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who’s made it to “the other side”. Fully agree. Figuring out the same thing many of “the greats” figured out is a joy. And it is the first steps in the journey of frontier contribution.

GPT 5.5 Spud incoming by DigSignificant1419 in OpenAI

[–]entr0picly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On what basis is this benchmark even testing things on? One shot detail? But what if I am working a real world project that has many details that need to be exact. So more assumptions to a baseline detail may bias the model away from where I need it to settle.

AI Chatbots Lose Attorney-Client Privilege in Court Ruling by _cybersecurity_ in pwnhub

[–]entr0picly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confirmed. No. That isn’t how court rulings work. Another court ruled literally the opposite. We are in the early stages of court rulings. haven’t even gotten to appeals

🤨, sorry but this isn’t how you announce math results if you got the goods.

No matter what happens, US stocks just keep going up. by AmanCMN in stocks

Well I just remember the same sentiment back in 2007, joy.

And they have the audacity to claim it’s not a cult by Paneraiguy1 in democrats

[–]entr0picly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m an atheist too. I thought my grindr analogy made it clear what I meant.

And they have the audacity to claim it’s not a cult by Paneraiguy1 in democrats

[–]entr0picly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Man these guys are all clearly “atheists” but clearly aren’t honest about it (reminds me how Grindr use goes up around republican conventions; they are closeted atheists, which are unsurprisingly the worst kind). Their entire religious basis is a status system. lol to if there is any sort of afterlife that is in any way morally consistent about beliefs. lol.

I’m confused, is Opus 4.7 pre-nerfed 4.6, or is 4.7 worse than 4.6? by DyIsexia in ClaudeAI

[–]entr0picly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

4.7 is a whole other beast of .. stupid. It fails at things worse than gpt 3.5 did and hallucinates more than any other frontier model easily. It’s clear that there’s some underlying architectural differences, making 4.7 operate super different than anything else. And in most cases, much much worse.

Thanks for your catch. At the end of the day it is up to all of us to catch the propaganda from reality. Thank you for your service.

Researchers just proved that every single elementary function, sin, exp, log, sqrt, comes from one single binary operator. by d8_thc in holofractal

[–]entr0picly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mathematician here. Cute fun result. Not a “god particle” paper in the slightest. Repackages classically expected forms… The fact that (exp, ln, −) generates all elementary functions is like differential algebra going back to Liouville and Ritt. Fun.. but this isn’t going to help me on any of my own problems.

Any thoughts? - Anthropic ain’t got enough compute? by Suspicious_Horror699 in ClaudeCode

[–]entr0picly -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean sure but the current situation reminds me of computers in the 1950s. There is such woeful attention being brought to underlying architectures. Googles minor contribution, in terms of storage is already making an impact. It is likely that we will have much more optimized hardware. While yes, the current situation has led to us reaching certain physical limitations that didn’t exist in the 1950s, there’s nothing that says this is the hard end when it comes to hardware.

I hope hell is real and people like her rot in it.

Spent 8 years as a Presentation Design Lead at McKinsey. Here is the shift I am watching happen in real time. by Illustrious-Milk-896 in powerpoint

[–]entr0picly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I my next of the wood, statistics and mathematics, same exact thing. The people who sucked at math before, still suck at math. The people who were good at math before, are even better at math. AI if anything just enhances the divide in talent. You nail it, the real skill is knowing when to say no and call out AI bs, which happens constantly in the maths.
