Three reasons AI’s jagged intelligence is harder than human jaggedness
By
–
Things that make the jagged intelligence of AI harder to deal with than the jaggedness of humans:
1) Weaknesses are not always intuitive or identifiable in advanced
2) All LLMs have similar weaknesses, so you can't just hire a different one
3) Jagged frontier is moving outward -

AI Should Be Nurtured, Not Trained: The Promise of Neuroevolution
By
–
"AI should not be trained, but should 'grow' on its own." Sakana AI researcher @sebastianrisi appeared on the podcast @EyeOn_AI. He discussed an overview of the Neuroevolution method, which constructs neural networks through evolutionary approaches, and talked about the current state of continual learning and artificial life (ALife) research. piped.video/pPpDxB4N_mE [Translated from EN to English]

AGI Not Within Striking Distance: Narrow AI Advances Instead
By

We are not getting to the G in Artificial General Intelligence; we are getting to (impressive) advances in particular areas where particular (verifiable) techniques can be used, on problems with advantageous economics. AGI itself is NOT “in striking distance”; inferring that

We barely understand how memory consolidation works, let alone digitizing consciousness. The confidence on this is… something haha.

— OpenAI Newsroom (@OpenAINewsroom) 9 avril 2026Compute powers every layer of AI, and the investments we’ve made mean we can run more promising research experiments, train more capable models, and support broader access. @merettm talks about our progress building an automated AI researcher and what’s ahead as AI can take on harder and harder problems. Jacob Effron (@jacobeffron) At @OpenAI, Chief Scientist @merettm helps lead the research roadmap to AGI including a research intern-level AI system by September 2026 and a fully automated AI researcher by March 2028. I sat down with Jakub to check on those timelines and ask him all of my top-of-mind AI questions including: ▪️ How OpenAI thinks about extending RL beyond code and math ▪️ The current state of alignment research as more powerful models loom ▪️ The future of continual learning ▪️ How startups should think about building their own models/harnesses And he also shared some great stories around OpenAI’s pioneering work on math.

Discrete symbols and mathematics foundations of AI modeling
By
–
To make sense of the world is to model it in the simplest possible way. And simplicity requires discrete symbols. This is why we developed mathematics in the first place.
