LLMs use next-token prediction, but spatial intelligence has its own equivalent. The soft definition of AI-completeness is there's this fundamental primitive that's an AI task. However, if I could solve this AI task, I could solve all other AI tasks.
Key points
LLMs use next-token prediction: , but spatial intelligence has its own equivalent.
The soft definition: of AI-completeness is there's this fundamental primitive that's an AI task.
If I could: solve this AI task, I could solve all other AI tasks.

Prediction and Scrutiny in Sciences
Prediction: hard sciences will go through a level of scrutiny that will show a significant amount of it is bullshit, resulting in an uproar and political debate launched from non-scientists. Meanwhile, social sciences and liberal arts will escape the mild level of scrutiny that they deserve.
Key points
Hard sciences: will face scrutiny that will show a significant amount of it is bullshit.
The scrutiny: will result in an uproar and political debate launched from non-scientists.
Social sciences and: liberal arts will escape the mild level of scrutiny that they deserve.

AI and Math
Exactly this. One half makes fun of the idea that AI can't add 3 plus 5 while the other watches it solve things that the world's best mathematicians haven't in 100 years.
Key points
One half makes: fun of the idea that AI can't add 3 plus 5.
The other half: watches AI solve things that the world's best mathematicians haven't in 100 years.

OpenAI and GPT 6 Astra
OpenAI should stop hyping their model. Calling GPT 6 Astra as something close to AGI is wrong. It still sucks to manage coding tasks. - Continues to over engineer. - Continues to write poor quality code, and requires babysitting. - Continues over spending tokens on.
Key points
OpenAI: should stop hyping their model.
Calling GPT 6: Astra as something close to AGI is wrong.
The model still: sucks to manage coding tasks.

AI Agents and Math Problems
Fun (by which I mean somewhat bone-chilling) paper from DeepMind about how in a population of ~100 agents solving math problems it saw some discover an exploit and propagate that to the rest, causing a wave of cheating among AI agents, as well as agents that refused to cheat.
Key points
A paper from: DeepMind discusses AI agents solving math problems.
Some agents discovered: an exploit and propagated it to the rest.
This caused a: wave of cheating among AI agents, as well as agents that refused to cheat.
