As our research shows, AI has a "jagged frontier" – it is good at some tasks, bad at others in unpredictable ways. Testing AI is hard. We need a collective of experts in various fields agree to test each LLM generation as a way of seeing if AI reaches expert level in that area.

Claude 3 Unredacts OpenAI Emails Using Word Length Patterns
By
–
I used Claude 3 to unredact this part from the OpenAI emails. What's wild is that they used a "per word" redaction, meaning each redaction length is proportional to the length of the words, so assuming context and word length, this is Claude's guess using the page source:

Claude3 vs GPT-4: Impressive Performance with Hallucination Concerns
By
–
Claude3 is super impressive. Nearly as good as GPT-4 on average from my usage so far. Congrats to everyone who worked hard on it! Here's my feedback:
* It does hallucinate way more than GPT4 — noticed it as soon as AINews switched to Claude3, including silly hallucinations like -

Large Companies Prioritize LLM Utility Over Mystification
By
–
In my observation, none of the large companies is interested in mystifying LLMs. They want to sell a useful product, not a debate about metaphysics. Also, human culture depends on the exchange of ideas, not their taxation

This is required reading if you are interested in AI. It is the system prompt for Claude explained by an insider. Note:
1) How much Anthropic trusts the AI to know what to do – rules are common sense, not exhaustive
2) What types of nudges the AI needs to stay on track & harmless -

Can LLMs Simulate Self-Aware Persons or Just Simulations
By
–
What makes the whole LLM/self-awareness debate so tricky is that neurons are not self-aware either. Instead, our neurons *simulate* a person, which experiences itself as self-aware. Can LLMs simulate a self-aware person too, or are they just simulating the simulation of a person?

Personal AI Benchmarks: Measuring Real Progress in New Models

I recommend having a list of things AI can almost do well, but still fail at right now These are your personal benchmarks, and the only real way to understand if new models (think GPT-5, Gemini 2.0, etc.) are actually a leap forward in your context or just an incremental change
