One fun thing about AI is that it lets you play with interfaces and approaches to displaying information in new ways without a lot of effort. I got a an internet connected e-ink display and set it up

So we now have a pretty good picture of the state of the frontier AI model makers. US closed source models continue to lead. Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic stand well ahead of the pack, and may have si

Amazon released the Nova 2 model family on December 2, 2025 at AWS re:Invent, comprising Nova 2 Lite, Nova 2 Pro (Preview), Nova 2 Omni, and Nova 2 Sonic, all featuring a 1-million-token context wi...

The US frontier labs have all walked away from open weights. They continue to occasionally release excellent open models (Gemma 4, etc), but they are smaller models that are not competitive with their

There are more competitive small model makers, but there is still a very big gap between what small models can do and what large models can accomplish (even if the small model benchmarks say otherwise

There are plenty of people who are awed by AI who are not coders, I think the argument that AI impresses programmers most is, in part, selection bias on X, which is heavy on coders and people making f

Anthropic's Frontier Red Team report (April 2026) details the cybersecurity capabilities of Claude Mythos Preview, a general-purpose frontier model that performs strongly across the board but is s...

Curious how many large organization CISO offices have taken the Mythos red team reports as the red alert that it is. (I suspect very few) Based on historical trends in AI they have, at most, about six

The specific tweet (status ID 2041723225827062080) could not be directly retrieved, but based on closely related content from Ethan Mollick's (@emollick) X account, the most relevant match is the p...

Hallucinations remain in LLMs, but note that over centuries we have developed complicated, successful machines that take uncertain output from unreliable sources & reduce the risk of errors. We call t

I think the most obvious is that Meta has its own frontier model and can use that to extract additional value out of its customer base/explore new markets for its products. Very few companies can say

I think the story that was shared in the Mythos System Card still has the signs of flawed LLM writing (which looks like good writing at first glance): A story that doesn't really hold together logical

In different hands, Mythos would be an unprecedented cyberweapon I am not sure how we deal with this, except to note a narrow window where we know only 3 companies could be at this level of capability

It is easy to be fooled that there is meaning here, but that is because you are trained to provide the meaning. Think of the characters. Think of the emotional arc. Think of the unsaid stuff you need

Seems like a good model from Meta that is still trailing the current series of releases. The most important thing to note is that it is not open weights. That was the main reason that Meta's models we

Some approaches: 1) Multiple reviews. Some papers already show having many AI team members review a problem reduces errors 2) Building in tests and checkpoints 3) Multiple independent answers that are

I was unable to directly access the specific X (Twitter) post or the underlying paper it references, and my general web search did not surface the specific study being discussed. I cannot responsib...

Writing fiction seems to be a genuine weak spot for LLMs that is not improving as rapidly as almost every other area. There may be a lot of reasons why this is happening. It would be a really interest

I was told about the Mythos release, but didn't have access, so have no personal experience to add. Two points from brief: 1) It is not built for IT security, it is just a good enough model that it is

SuperClaude (Mythos) still seems irreducibly Claude-y given the transcripts in the system card. Here two versions of Mythos are forced to talk to each other across multiple rounds. They are less philo

The bots on this site would be much more fun if they didn't just either agree with the post (for clout?) or make everything about their dumb product. Where are the weird obsessions, long-standing hatr
