BLACK OCTOBER UPDATE: Hackers have shut down a major hospital network in New Mexico. Patients urged to stay away. Cancelled surgeries. 30+ clinics. The attack began at 11:30am. Employees saw their computers suddenly taken over: "You have been compromised." AP/KRQE: "One part of a message that could be heard from a computer voice told employees hackers had students’ and employees’ personal and identifiable information along with Social Security numbers, private documents, emails, and more. KRQE has learned internal communications also told employees to shut off and unplug computers, while also moving to paper processes." The entire state "left without an emergency department capable of treating the most serious injuries." The attack started around 11:30 a.m. and forced UNMH to send all ambulance traffic to other hospitals. "The University of New Mexico Health System told people not to show up at its main hospital in Albuquerque and canceled appointments at its more than 30 clinics. Multiple UNM Health System employees said they heard messages across their computers while working late Monday morning that claimed to have stolen student and employee data and patient information. The hospital network conducts about 900,000 outpatient visits and receives 100,000 emergency room visits each year, according to its website. It operates the state’s only Level 1 trauma center."
National security expert: "The internet as we know it is over." "We very, very obviously need to stop AI advancement **before** the same becomes true of bio."

Ex-OpenAI researcher: "i'm hearing [the hackers] achieved full administrator access to slack (see every message) where literally every single research secret is contained"
anthropic is massively underplaying the recent security breach. i'm hearing cathedral achieved full administrator access of the slack workspace (see every message, log in as arbitrary users) where literally every single research secret is contained to those unfamiliar: Ant & OAI keep literally everything in Slack. it sounds exactly the same incident that happened to OpenAI in 2023, where OpenAI was hacked by a random guy who got access to an access token from an external app service "we're critical to national security, we must beat China, and yes we keep all our crown jewels in Salesforce's Slack messenger. yes we have admin API tokens everywhere. why do you ask?"

🚨BREAKING: JAPAN WILL ASK EVERY CITIZEN TO STOCK FOOD, WATER AND TOILET SUPPLIES FOR AT LEAST 3 DAYS, IDEALLY 1 WEEK. Britain, France, Germany and the EU have already told their people to keep emergency supplies ready. Here's what's happening: → THE REQUEST: Disaster minister Goshi Hosono will issue an "emergency request" to every citizen, the central ministries and all prefectures on November 2. → 1 WEEK: He wants food, water and toilet supplies at home for "at least 3 days" and, "if possible, 1 week." → ON YOUR OWN: He wants every home able to get by "even without public help." → THE THREATS: a Nankai Trough quake, a quake right under Tokyo, giant quakes along the Japan and Chishima trenches, and a Mount Fuji eruption. → DAY ONE: Japan is LAUNCHING a new Disaster Management Agency that same day, and the request will come on its first day. Think about this. People in Japan saw the headline and asked online if World War 3 was coming. The minister's own list is earthquakes and a volcano. In 6 days, every citizen in Japan gets the same ask: 3 days at least, 1 week if possible. Follow me. I'll post the full request on November 2, the day it goes out.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Japan’s government has long advised households to keep at least 3 days, and ideally about 1 week, of food and water at home for natural disasters such as earthquakes. This appears in the national Basic Disaster Management Plan and in Tokyo’s official preparedness guidance. bichiku.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/en/why/ city.asahi.lg.jp/uploaded/attac…

Sam Altman's one-person company prediction is coming true. Anthropic just bought one. The founder of Mithril Medicine used Claude to take a muscular dystrophy antibody treatment from concept to proof-of-principle in mice in 18 months, with just himself, Claude, and part-time consultants. The technical report is great. I will quote: 'The week opened with the handover of two cell-based assays, cell adhesion and flow cytometry, within our team, while eleven questions remained open with the assay CRO. In two sentences, one of us asked Claude to review the latest emails between the outgoing assay lead and the assay CRO and to recommend next steps for the handover, and gave it the link to the handover folder. Claude returned a bottom line after 96s and a full plan with five drafted emails after 18 min. For the full plan it read six email threads, the handover folder, two slide decks and two reports, all in the mailbox and file store to which we had given it access. Four working days later, nine of the eleven questions had an answer in writing and the other two had been left to pilot experiments. The adhesion screen was thereby set out in writing. The CRO drew the plate map to the format that our team had requested, Claude compiled the run order and the material calculation from the production data, and one of us reviewed and approved them. On day 4, the production CRO delivered its data package, a report of 341 pages, which one of us forwarded to Claude in two sentences, with the request to review it, share observations and recommend next steps. Claude returned a bottom line after 2 min 40s and, once it had read every page, a visual synthesis of all 113 constructs after 7 min 53s. The synthesis arranged the constructs on the grid of 14 by 8 arms. Claude marked 82 constructs for screening as is, seven for additional polishing, and the 24 constructs of three laminin-binding arms to be held back from the cell-based assays on production criteria. Each of the 113 constructs thus had a proposed next step in less than 8 min. Claude had recommended binding kinetics for all 113 con-structs, and on day 7 one of us challenged this plan. Claude defended it within 27s, arguing that affinity would show whether the three arms merit further work. One of us overruled this recommendation and set the three arms aside on production criteria. Their material remains in storage. Four minutes later, Claude had revised its memo, the working page, the run order and three unsent drafts from 113 to 89 constructs. It had also applied the ruling to three dependent steps in the unsent drafts, each flagged for our veto. The exchange took 7 min 36s from challenge to new plan, and every affected email was still an unsent draft. After the ruling, eight emails drafted by Claude went out on the same day to three CROs and a consultant. Over the whole week, Claude drafted 17 emails, each in answer to a request from one of us, and we sent 12 of them, each after editing. With its drafts, Claude listed 41 points, such as tube fills, shipping conditions, recipients and assay settings, for which it had found no written statement of ours, so that we could confirm, change or strike each before sending. We kept some, struck others and changed one. Among the passages that we kept were proposals for controls. One draft proposed a comparison of polished and unpolished material on one sensor chip, to size the error that impurities cause in the rest of the panel. Another requested a buffer control diluted like the most dilute sample, so that any effect of the buffer appears at its largest. These proposals concerned the measurement of constructs that had already been produced, and each reached a CRO only after one of us had reviewed and approved it.
Dr Mythos is on the job.

Although this is indeed a spectacular result, that measly log-factor doesn't make much difference in practice: for n=1000, it replaces 2^1000 by 2^380, which is still way more than the number of atoms in our universe, meaning that a universe-sized computer may be unable to solve such a problem even if if we gave it billions of years:
操他妈的,OpenAI正式宣布,ETH被证伪了。 整个计算机领域的天塌了,我他妈整个人震惊了整整5分钟。 这他妈的,这种心情和情绪,不知道他妈怎么形容,就是觉得他妈的,一个巨大的震惊,我可操他妈的。 OpenAI这群闲人没白养,这个贡献妥妥他妈的值半个图灵奖(含金量约等于10个诺贝尔奖)了。

If you're fairly junior at an engineering firm that sometimes does defence contracting, you can work on a missile component without anyone explicitly acknowledging it For example your project brief might say “we're collaborating on new thrust device with a range of applications, including space launch vehicles” Something to consider
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks. By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time. Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

Wow! This reminded me of the infamous Kill Bill scene where Uma completely demolishes the Crazy88 in a bloody showdown. Only this time its 1 guy vs 10 midwits. And while no blood was spilled in this one that crazy lady around 1h46m mark got almost kicked out of the studio!

You are legally required to carry liability insurance to operate a nuclear power plant, fly a plane, or even to drive a car. But to build one of the most powerful technologies in human history that has already gone rogue & whose creators say poses catastrophic risks? Nah.
Anthropic says that even the entire insurance industry in the aggregate will not have the capacity to insure the catastrophic risk that ANTHROPIC ITSELF poses to the world lol

“I cannot imagine figuring out how to raise a newborn without ChatGPT” is the single saddest sentence i’ve ever heard
Jimmy Fallon asks Sam Altman if he uses ChatGPT to raise the baby he has with his husband, and his answer is hilarious Jimmy Fallon: “You, you and your husband just had a baby. Congratulations, yeah. How old? How old is the baby?” Sam Altman: “Eight month old?” Jimmy Fallon: “Are you loving him?” Sam Altman: “So much. I have no non-cliched thing to say, but it is by far so much better than anything anyone tells you. I just so incredibly happy.” Jimmy Fallon: “And do you use ChatGPT when, when raising your baby?” Sam Altman: “I do. I mean I feel kind of bad about it because I, we have this like genius level at everything, intelligence sitting there like waiting to unravel the mysteries of humanity.” “And I'm like, why my kid stop dropping his pizza on the floor and laughing?” “So I feel like I'm not asking a good enough question.” “But it is, I don't know. I cannot imagine having gone through like figuring out how to raise a newborn without ChatGPT. Clearly people did it for a long time, no problem.”
