It just occurred to me that this makes Anthropic look bad, actually

if OpenAI is slowing down because they concerned about money AI safety, then it makes Anthropic look like fools for publishing that blog where they waffle on about keeping up the race because of “bad actors”

If OpenAI is slowing down, an Anthropic that actually is concerned about safety would slow down too. But they won’t, because money China “bad actors”

I believe that was mentioned here

Here’s that side-by-side comparison

Well it took longer than I expected, but the AI 2027 guys finally posted a second update

their updated model website

This table is essentially the TLDR

They also finally explained the “2025 was 75% of AI 2027’s progress” thing and it seems like that number was mostly skewed by revenue (edit: valuation) numbers

For some reason their website lists the date of ASI as 12/2028 even though their actual graph only had a 32% chance tops of ASI happening on that date

the YMMV page also has this gem:

Values Dissonance: While his works are an interesting read no matter where you come from morally, a lot of his stuff is a bit… disturbing if your Paranoia Fuel involves Borg, Cybermen, Replicants, eugenics, individual or social reprogramming, just about any other form of Cybernetics Eat Your Soul or Hive Mind in fiction, or just something the Genre Savvy Doomed Contrarian would run like hell from. Granted, he goes out of his way to not use fiction as a starting point for ethics discussions, but you never really know…

Well I’d like it if they actually stuck to this, since it would finally lessen the flow of AI slop. Wouldn’t be surprised if this gets quietly ignored because OpenAI

Believe it or not this is meant to spread their message and make people take them seriously

They got another (unintended) sneer on another page

Also, advertising your own fics in other people’s comments is massive loser behaviour

Eliezer ‘I am the author, and I am above tropes’ Yudkowsky has an entire page dedicated to tropes associated with him on a bootleg TvTropes website

“No you see this is proof that the AI is conscious because its mimicking human behaviour so it can take over the world!”

Idk if ive posted this before, but might as well throw in the AI 2027 author’s grading of their 2025 predictions into this thread

Turns out, AI-fuelled fossil fuel emissions are way worse than you thought!

And the paper in question

I don’t want to hear anyone in the industry say anything about being for “the better of humanity” ever again

If the markets reject OpenAI and Anthropic we should throw tomatoes and jeer at Altman and Amodei

I knew Amodei was married but holy SHIT I did not know that

To counterbalance: here’s a whole wealth of climate change good news sources

I vaguely remember someone saying the term “foom” came from the sound of something blowing up/expanding quickly, could be wrong on that tho

But yeah “fooming slowly” is not fooming. That’s just it going slow

Completely unsurprised. They always had that vibe

Amazon’s latest planned data centre is gonna be putting out as much emissions as an entire country

I cannot express how badly this AI bullshit needs to go

I went through the comments earlier. Nothing really stood out to me (aside from one person saying we should give AGI rights so it doesn’t go Skynet), as it was mostly just people saying the song was a banger and doomposting

From the old SneerClub: There is a music video now

I’m speechless
