“Situational Awareness LP was named for a series of facile essays about machine intelligence published by the improbably-named #LeopoldAschenbrenner, the 24-year-old mastermind of the hedge fund.

“We are building machines that can think and reason,” he writes, betraying that he has no idea what thinking could possibly mean. “By 2025/26, these #machines will outpace many college #PostGraduates By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have #superintelligence in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be unleashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.”

With no understanding of the technology and a ‘greed is good’ credo SA looses billions. 🤨🤣☺️

Yesterday I had the pleasure of talking about 'How to publish' to an audience of post-graduate researchers in the arts and humanities.

I captured a few thoughts, and these, along with my slides, are now available.
