A basic sigmoid extrapolation suggests that this measurement will be close to its performance ceiling in around a year---meaning most randomly sampled remote work projects would be highly automatable

The automation rate of remote projects has increased ~4x in the past five months. New Remote Labor Index results: AI automation of real remote work is increasing fast. Claude Fable 5 now completes 16.

One of the more interesting takes on positive alignment that have recently come out-it’s long and interesting, combining philosophy and training setups (eg reward proposals), and worth a read. What ha

Should we care about AI happiness? In our new research, we find evidence of functional AI wellbeing across several independent measures. We find which AI models are happiest, how to make them happier,

When an LLM acts happy (“EUREKA!”) or sad (“I have failed…”), is that meaningless mimicry, or does it reflect something “real”? We don’t know if LLMs are conscious. But they increasingly seem to exhib
