Neuro-symbolic paradigm strikes again! If in #AlphaGeometry, the creative language model (System 1) suggests insights for the reliable symbolic engine (System 2) to complete a proof, we see that pattern again in #AlphaProof. The language model suggests key proof steps in a

Synthetic Data Debt: Model Quality Degradation Risk
By
–
7/ watch this space closely. My prediction is that model developers who are not careful about training on synthetic data with no information gain will find their models getting steadily stranger and dumber over time. Synthetic data accumulates a debt with the model that must be

Synthetic Data Training Risks Model Collapse Long Term
By
–
3/ This core idea is very important to pay attention to: Synthetic data can create a short-term boost in eval results, but you will pay for it later with model collapse! You accumulate debt with mangling the model that starts invisible, and is very hard to repay.

Model Collapse in AI: Recursive Synthetic Data Training Risks
By
–
1/ New paper in Nature shows model collapse as successive model generations models are recursively trained on synthetic data. This is an important result. While many researchers today view synthetic data as AI philosopher’s stone, there is no free lunch. Read more

Rule-Based Rewards for AI Safety and Capability Alignment
By
–
Rule-based rewards (RBRs) use model to provide RL signals based on a set of safety rubrics, making it easier to adapt to changing safety policies wo/ heavy dependency on human data. It also enables us to look at safety and capability in a more unified lens as a more capable

this is wrong. aleksander is working on a new and v important research project, and joaquin and lilian are taking over the preparedness team as part of unifying our safety work. aleksander will continue to support preparedness work in various ways.

AI Risk: Misconceptions About Statistical Nature of AI
By
–
IMO, the biggest risk from #ai is people thinking it is something it isn't. Right now, it is sophisticated statistics with little conceptualization. (Humans work by stats too btw, we just aren't as good at it. And we have an advantage of concepts, but that's another path.)
