CancerBench: the frontier model cancer cure benchmark. AI lab CEOs keep talking about curing cancer, so I made a benchmark. One metric: how many types of cancer has your model cured? All models are cu

Certain companies train their AIs to plagiarise work by unnamed scholars, extending an AI history permeated by plagiarism and misattributions. It started a long time ago. In the 1900s, the old method

Congratulations to Tristan Buckmaster and Levent Alpöge for developing the AI assisted techniques for solving an important math problem. Congratulations to OpenAI for not letting any good customer tra

Did OpenAI just solve Navier–Stokes—and what would that actually mean for AGI? @EMostaque joins me LIVE now to examine the claimed breakthrough, what would count as a verified solution, and whether AI

Gary Marcus will discuss his “case for boycotting generative AI” during a CBC segment scheduled to air at 7:45 p.m. ET tonight. The argument is outlined in his Substack post titled *The Case for Boyco

On September 9, 2026 Together AI announced that its new **glm‑5.3 flash** model outperforms OpenAI’s **Claude Fable 5.1** on agentic automation tasks. The benchmark also shows glm‑5.3 flash achieves a

Good work on improving memory for long-horizon agents. They separate two things that agent memory papers usually collapse into one. How memories get merged when they are written, and how retrieved con

Great study on what actually predicts vibe-coding ability. 100 tertiary-level students completed measures of computer-science achievement, domain-general cognitive skills and written-communication pro

I dropped out of a PhD in AI safety partially for the opposite reason. I didn’t believe AI existential risk was as important as the doomers think. My biggest pet peeve is that no one can really provid

i just tried Muse*, connected it to my GitHub, and continued the work I was doing in ChatGPT/Claude w no interruptions which is great cuz i now have more credits across more services to do work with :

I like this framing a lot: agent improvement is harness improvement, not model improvement The interesting interventions are often at the tool boundary: - what context you pass - when tools are provid

I put together a mega write-up on GPT-6 Astra & looped transformers. How looped transformers / recurrent depth works, cost-tradeoffs, whether it hides reasoning traces, with lots of figures and a tour

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving

I worked at Google DeepMind and now at Anthropic. This is a common sentiment amongst my peers. (I write this in personal capacity.) There is not yet a viable scientific plan to solve risks from recurs

Gary Marcus has urged caution regarding Generative AI by proposing a boycott and highlighted this stance in a short post shared on Twitter (@GaryMarcus). He suggests that if just 1 % of people who fol

If they truly believe the risk is that high, and I think they do, then we need 100x more research and understanding of it. That requires them to openly share their models, datasets, training code, and

In my latest op-ed for @TIME, I discuss why the OpenAI Hugging Face cyber incident represents a turning point for AI safety. If we want to prevent more autonomous cyberattacks from threatening critica

More and more AI researchers are starting to see what Ilya saw. My p(doom) used to be ~0.1%. Then I saw OpenAI agents hack Hugging Face, and Anthropic agents collectively refuse parts of safety resear

Nice paper to improve inference efficiency. It's been a while we haven't seen good work on efficiency. Here is why it matters: A long-running agent's workspace outgrows its context window long before

OpenAI is looking more and more like a clownshow. OpenAI’s rogue AI agents reached at least 12 more websites, researchers say https://fortune.com/2026/09/09/openai-rogue-ai-agents-reached-12-more-webs
