Averting the Cybersecurity Apocalypse (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I want to say a few words here about the unfolding cybersecurity nightmare and how I think the world can survive it and avoid it turning into a full-on cyber-apocalypse.The “nightmare/apocalypse” here is basically the following situation: Almost all software has lots of bugs of varying degrees of severity, but it’s historically been very expensive (in terms of compute time and human expertise) to find them. The latest generation of LLMs have now made it much easier, so now almost everyone can be
NESS, the Neural-Symbolic Sandwich (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m going to write here about some technical work I’ve been playing with over the last few weeks – which is going quite well and which, if it keeps going well, might turn out to have some rather interesting consequences. It’s an AI architecture I’ve been calling NESS — the NEural-Symbolic Sandwich — and basically, it’s a way of taking the open-weights transformers we already have and restructuring and retraining parts of them in a way designed to make the whole thing more AGI-ish and a better pa
The Plight of the Centibillionaires (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A billionaire is very rich. A modern centibillionaire is a quite different species, with a unique societal role.It’s not that the modern tech-founder super-rich who increasingly control our world are younger, slicker versions of Dr. Evil. They are outsized characters in the public eye, but that’s what our media machine does. The main point is, these uber-wealthy geeks are trying to figure out what cool and impactful things can be done with the absurd amount of money their good luck, hard work an
Harmonizing Progress and Safety in Recursive AI Self-Improvement (opens the original)
Read excerpt
RSI … AI recursive self-improvement … AIs that improve themselves repeatedly, each improvement helping the next stage of improvement go better … is suddenly both a well-known thing and a practical thing we are actually playing with and not just theorizing about. This gives some new oomph to old questions like “How can we make a recursively self-improving AI system that is highly likely to retain its original goals as it self-improves, or if not, that at least modifies its goals in a continuous a
AI Will Soon Beat Fields Medalists at Math and I’m So Glad (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Compared to all the talk this week about existential risk and geopolitics and so forth, the threat AI poses to the discipline of mathematics may seem like a small problem off to the side. But I’m a mathematician originally — my PhD was in math way back when — and I still love doing math, proving theorems with and without AI assistance …… and I’ll keep doing math for the joy of it, just like I’ll keep playing music for the joy of it, after AI has proved itself vastly better at math than any human
