*Anthropic says AI is improving too fast, and claims government regulation is needed. It says "legislation should be easy to understand and implement". I am EXTREMELY skeptical that regulation could work, but they do provide some interesting examples concerning the rate of improvement of AI. *
*"On the SWE-bench software engineering task, models have improved from being able to solve 1.96% of a test set of real-world coding problems (Claude 2, October 2023) to 13.5% (Devin, March 2024) to 49% (Claude 3.5 Sonnet, October 2024)" * *"AI systems have improved their scientific understanding by nearly 18% from June to September of this year alone, according to benchmark test GPQA. OpenAI o1 achieved 77.3%; on the hardest section of the test; human experts scored 81.2%."* *Anthropic wants governments to regulate AI to avoid catastrophe 18 months* <https://www.zdnet.com/article/anthropic-warns-of-ai-catastrophe-if-governments-dont-regulate-in-18-months/> *John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>* esm -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
