Hard to find good coverage of current events that isn't just reaction-based and pushing a political view.

Feeling the AGI/ASI, few observations 1. Opus 5.5 really gives strong vibes of AGI (maybe not fully there, but we're very close, like 80%-90%). For example, few breakthoughs in training humanoids are needed. We need to move this intelligence into physical world. 2. I don't think Anthropic has discovered any magical formula. 3. Which means, SpaceXAI, Google, and others will soon follow. This prediction is based on the amount of compute they already have + additional compute being added all the time. 4. Never was more confident that Anthropic, SpaceXAI, Google, OpenAI, likely Meta, basically all big US AGI labs will have proper AGI in 2027. 5. And from there we'll move quickly to ASI territory (likely also in 2027). It looks like few GW of compute are enough for strong AGI, now imagine what we will able to do with 10-20GW of compute which are rapidly coming online. And then with 100GW-200GW... 2027 will be an utterly insane year.

I don't think we get to GPT-7 without either a plateau in the technology or something fairly seismic happening. "Seismic" includes many subcategories, not all of them bad. But the present course of rapid AI advancements while society is ~basically the same is running on fumes.

I'm telling you — now, as much as ever, you must write by hand every morning. You must write three pages on whatever is currently on your mind. You must preserve and strengthen your thinking through your writing.

When the llms start thinking in not human language then perhaps we are in trouble

Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor. It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. anthropic.com/institute/recu…

In December, I gave you this 2027 is your bubble pop event Enjoy the blowoff top between now and November Prepare for the worst, and don’t get greedy
No AI trade blowup 2026 will be a bull market Disappointing, but it is what it is

Living forever or for a long ass time seems like not so far away but so hard to grasp nobody is really talking about it

This is super true actually
if you are under 30 all you have to do is possess a curiosity about other peoples' lives and the ability to hold a conversation and you have a massive leg up on literally everyone else in your age range

It takes everyone a different amount of time to realize everyone is just thinking about themselves, no one was watching, and you should’ve just done whatever the fuck you wanted to all along.

Today, I finally feel the existential threat that AI is posing. When AI becomes overly good and disrupts everything, what will be left for humans to do? And it's when, not if.

Fuck is the most ironic outcome actually the one where the guy trying understand the universe and extend the scope and scale of humanity out into the stars the turns out to be the guy who accidentally ruins humanity? @elonmusk
