[Meta: This is Max Harms. I wrote a novel about China and AGI, which comes out today. This essay from my fiction newsletter has been slightly modified for LessWrong.] In the summer of 1983, Ronald Reagan sat down to watch the film War Games, starring Matthew Broderick as a teen hacker. In the movie, Broderick's character accidentally gains access to a military supercomputer with an AI that almost starts World War III.“The only winning move is not to play.” After watching the movie, Reagan, newly concerned with the possibility of hackers causing real harm, ordered a full national security review. The response: “Mr. President, the problem is much worse than you think.” Soon after, the Department of Defense revamped their cybersecurity policies and the first federal directives and laws against malicious hacking were put in place. But War Games wasn't the only story to influence Reagan. His administration pushed for the Strategic Defense Initiative ("Star Wars") in part, perhaps, because the central technology—a laser that shoots down missiles—resembles the core technology behind the 1940 spy film Murder in the Air, which had Reagan as lead actor. Reagan was apparently such a superfan of The Day the Earth Stood Still [...] ---Outline:(05:05) AI in Particular(06:45) Whats Going On Here?(11:19) Authorial Responsibility The original text contained 10 footnotes which were omitted from this narration. --- First published: November 3rd, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/uQak7ECW2agpHFsHX/the-unreasonable-effectiveness-of-fiction --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:

With the US racing to develop AGI and superintelligence ahead of China, you might expect the two countries to be negotiating how they'll deploy AI, including in the military, without coming to blows. But according to Helen Toner, director of the Center for Security and Emerging Technology in DC, “the US and Chinese governments are barely talking at all.”Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/ht25In her role as a founder, and now leader, of DC's top think tank focused on the geopolitical and military implications of AI, Helen has been closely tracking the US's AI diplomacy since 2019.“Over the last couple of years there have been some direct [US–China] talks on some small number of issues, but they've also often been completely suspended.” China knows the US wants to talk more, so “that becomes a bargaining chip for China to say, ‘We don't want to talk to you. We're not going to do these military-to-military talks about extremely sensitive, important issues, because we're mad.'”Helen isn't sure the groundwork exists for productive dialogue in any case. “At the government level, [there's] very little agreement” on what AGI is, whether it's possible soon, whether it poses major risks. Without shared understanding of the problem, negotiating solutions is very difficult.Another issue is that so far the Chinese Communist Party doesn't seem especially “AGI-pilled.” While a few Chinese companies like DeepSeek are betting on scaling, she sees little evidence Chinese leadership shares Silicon Valley's conviction that AGI will arrive any minute now, and export controls have made it very difficult for them to access compute to match US competitors.When DeepSeek released R1 just three months after OpenAI's o1, observers declared the US–China gap on AI had all but disappeared. But Helen notes OpenAI has since scaled to o3 and o4, with nothing to match on the Chinese side. “We're now at something like a nine-month gap, and that might be longer.”To find a properly AGI-pilled autocracy, we might need to look at nominal US allies. The US has approved massive data centres in the UAE and Saudi Arabia with “hundreds of thousands of next-generation Nvidia chips” — delivering colossal levels of computing power.When OpenAI announced this deal with the UAE, they celebrated that it was “rooted in democratic values,” and would advance “democratic AI rails” and provide “a clear alternative to authoritarian versions of AI.”But the UAE scores 18 out of 100 on Freedom House's democracy index. “This is really not a country that respects rule of law,” Helen observes. Political parties are banned, elections are fake, dissidents are persecuted.If AI access really determines future national power, handing world-class supercomputers to Gulf autocracies seems pretty questionable. The justification is typically that “if we don't sell it, China will” — a transparently false claim, given severe Chinese production constraints. It also raises eyebrows that Gulf countries conduct joint military exercises with China and their rulers have “very tight personal and commercial relationships with Chinese political leaders and business leaders.”In today's episode, host Rob Wiblin and Helen discuss all that and more.This episode was recorded on September 25, 2025.CSET is hiring a frontier AI research fellow! https://80k.info/cset-roleCheck out its careers page for current roles: https://cset.georgetown.edu/careers/Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who's Helen Toner?

M.G. Siegler of Spyglass is back for our monthly tech news discussion. Today we dig into OpenAI's newly cleared path to an IPO, what trillion-scale capex vs. current revenue implies, and how Microsoft's 27% stake, IP rights, and fresh AWS entanglements complicate the story. We debate whether the market can stomach years of heavy losses, why “AGI or bust” creates systemic risk, and what happens if model gains plateau, compute economics flip, or fast followers erase any AGI edge. Finally, we look at Apple's iPhone 17 resurgence—why it's hitting now and whether it's enough without a breakthrough assistant. Tune in for a clear walkthrough of tech's biggest news with one of the industry's sharpest analysts. --- Enjoying Big Technology Podcast?

As far as I'm aware, Anthropic is the only AI company with official AGI timelines[1]: they expect AGI by early 2027. In their recommendations (from March 2025) to the OSTP for the AI action plan they say: As our CEO Dario Amodei writes in 'Machines of Loving Grace', we expect powerful AI systems will emerge in late 2026 or early 2027. Powerful AI systems will have the following properties: Intellectual capabilities matching or exceeding that of Nobel Prize winners across most disciplines—including biology, computer science, mathematics, and engineering. [...] They often describe this capability level as a "country of geniuses in a datacenter". This prediction is repeated elsewhere and Jack Clark confirms that something like this remains Anthropic's view (as of September 2025). Of course, just because this is Anthropic's official prediction[2] doesn't mean that all or even most employees at Anthropic share the same view.[3] However, I do think we can reasonably say that Dario Amodei, Jack Clark, and Anthropic itself are all making this prediction.[4] I think the creation of transformatively powerful AI systems—systems as capable or more capable than Anthropic's notion of powerful AI—is plausible in 5 years [...] ---Outline:(02:27) What does powerful AI mean?(08:40) Earlier predictions(11:19) A proposed timeline that Anthropic might expect(19:10) Why powerful AI by early 2027 seems unlikely to me(19:37) Trends indicate longer(21:48) My rebuttals to arguments that trend extrapolations will underestimate progress(26:14) Naively trend extrapolating to full automation of engineering and then expecting powerful AI just after this is probably too aggressive(30:08) What I expect(32:12) What updates should we make in 2026?(32:17) If something like my median expectation for 2026 happens(34:07) If something like the proposed timeline (with powerful AI in March 2027) happens through June 2026(35:25) If AI progress looks substantially slower than what I expect(36:09) If AI progress is substantially faster than I expect, but slower than the proposed timeline (with powerful AI in March 2027)(36:51) Appendix: deriving a timeline consistent with Anthropics predictions The original text contained 94 footnotes which were omitted from this narration. --- First published: November 3rd, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/gabPgK9e83QrmcvbK/what-s-up-with-anthropic-predicting-agi-by-early-2027-1 --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:

Today's guest is David Petrou, Founder & CEO at Continua AI. Founded in 2023, Continua has brought the power of LLMs to group chat. Most AI tools today operate in “single-player” mode, but we're social creatures, inspired and motivated through group conversation. So Continua asked: what if AI could be a quiet, helpful member of the group? That question led to Social AI - technology that fades into the background, acting not as a demanding interface but as a shared layer of intelligence that strengthens human connection.David and his team are building AI that helps people feel more connected, not less. He believes technology should strengthen empathy and relationships, not compete for attention. Previously, David was a Distinguished Software Engineer (L9) at Google, where he helped create Google Goggles and Google Glass, and led efforts to bring machine intelligence to Pixel and Android. His career centers on exploring how technology can understand context and quietly enhance meaningful human connection.In this episode, David talks about:0:00 His journey from Google veteran to AI entrepreneur founding Continua AI2:20 How AI has evolved from single-user tools to collaborative group intelligence5:58 How Continua adds socially intelligent AI to everyday group chats10:23 Expanding from group chat AI to real-time group collaboration13:10 Simplifying coordination and strengthens real-world social connections15:51 Building complex group-AI tech through strong, collaborative teamwork18:41 How Continua pursues social AI toward AGI, with strong team and hiring

For years, working on AI safety usually meant theorising about the ‘alignment problem' or trying to convince other people to give a damn. If you could find any way to help, the work was frustrating and low feedback.According to Anthropic's Holden Karnofsky, this situation has now reversed completely.There are now large amounts of useful, concrete, shovel-ready projects with clear goals and deliverables. Holden thinks people haven't appreciated the scale of the shift, and wants everyone to see the large range of ‘well-scoped object-level work' they could personally help with, in both technical and non-technical areas.Video, full transcript, and links to learn more: https://80k.info/hk25In today's interview, Holden — previously cofounder and CEO of Open Philanthropy — lists 39 projects he's excited to see happening, including:Training deceptive AI models to study deception and how to detect itDeveloping classifiers to block jailbreakingImplementing security measures to stop ‘backdoors' or ‘secret loyalties' from being added to models in trainingDeveloping policies on model welfare, AI-human relationships, and what instructions to give modelsTraining AIs to work as alignment researchersAnd that's all just stuff he's happened to observe directly, which is probably only a small fraction of the options available.Holden makes a case that, for many people, working at an AI company like Anthropic will be the best way to steer AGI in a positive direction. He notes there are “ways that you can reduce AI risk that you can only do if you're a competitive frontier AI company.” At the same time, he believes external groups have their own advantages and can be equally impactful.Critics worry that Anthropic's efforts to stay at that frontier encourage competitive racing towards AGI — significantly or entirely offsetting any useful research they do. Holden thinks this seriously misunderstands the strategic situation we're in — and explains his case in detail with host Rob Wiblin.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Holden is back!

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) could be humanity's greatest invention ... or our biggest risk.In this episode of TechFirst, I talk with Dr. Ben Goertzel, CEO and founder of SingularityNET, about the future of AGI, the possibility of superintelligence, and what happens when machines think beyond human programming.We cover: • Is AGI inevitable? How soon will it arrive? • Will AGI kill us … or save us? • Why decentralization and blockchain could make AGI safer • How large language models (LLMs) fit into the path toward AGI • The risks of an AGI arms race between the U.S. and China • Why Ben Goertzel created Meta, a new AGI programming language

What if the “you” chasing success was never truly you, but a product of systems shaping how you think, feel, and live?In this deep and eye-opening conversation, Aaron Scott, former Wall Street professional turned writer and consciousness explorer, reveals how education, finance, and societal systems subtly mold our perceptions and identities. Together with Agi, he explores how recognising these hidden influences can help you reclaim your personal sovereignty and start living from awareness instead of conditioning.Discover how modern institutions like education and finance condition your sense of self and success.Learn the first practical steps to break free from unconscious programming and begin living with inner autonomy.Understand how questioning inherited beliefs can reconnect you with your authentic power and purpose.Listen now to awaken from societal conditioning and take your first conscious step toward reclaiming your true self.˚KEY POINTS AND TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Why this episode matters02:03 - Meet Aaron Scott03:35 - Aaron's wake-up call from Wall Street09:14 - How education conditions identity17:51 - The illusion of value in finance24:48 - From theory to action: where to start26:00 - Speak with your wallet: practical steps30:34 - How to connect with Aaron36:43 - Parting message: question everything˚MEMORABLE QUOTE:"Give yourself a break, trust yourself, and remember that life isn't a mountain to conquer—it's a journey meant to be lived and learned from."˚VALUABLE RESOURCES:Aaron's website: https://www.theaaronscott.com/˚Coaching with Agi: https://personaldevelopmentmasterypodcast.com/mentor˚

Imagine opening your phone, describing your dispute in simple language, and getting a clear, data-backed path to resolution—without weeks of confusion or a wall of legalese. That's the future we dig into with lawyer and legal tech builder Nicolas Torrent, who's helped design online arbitration platforms and shape Switzerland's legal tech ecosystem. Together we unpack how AI, user experience, and court data can turn access to justice from a maze into a map.We start with the hard truths: price uncertainty, physical distance, and cognitive barriers keep people out of court. Nicolas lays out how legal design—plain language, smart workflows, and visual cues—can guide users step by step. Then we zoom into the power of data: aggregated outcomes that help people understand their odds, timelines, and likely costs, improving settlement decisions and restoring trust. Speed isn't just convenience; it's an economic catalyst. When fair rulings arrive sooner, families and small businesses can move forward with confidence.We also explore a sustainable path. Nicolas outlines “profitable justice” that doesn't hide rights behind paywalls: think low-cost online small-claims settlement tools that offer realistic ranges based on similar cases, with an option to escalate to a human judge. Pair this with supervised trainee reviews, pro bono, and targeted lawyer services, and you get a flexible market that meets people where they are. Along the way, we tackle big-picture risks—AGI race dynamics, quantum acceleration, and geopolitical stakes—and why open source, distributed authority, security, and personal accountability must anchor any public system.Throughout, one principle stays constant: keep humans in control. AI should accelerate routine work, surface patterns, and translate complexity into clarity, while judges and lawyers apply judgment, empathy, and responsibility. If we design for inclusion, treat court data as a strategic public asset, and build with transparency, justice can become faster, fairer, and truly accessible.

Dhanji R. Prasanna is the chief technology officer at Block (formerly Square), where he's managed more than 4,000 engineers over the past two years. Under his leadership, Block has become one of the most AI-native large companies in the world. Before becoming CTO, Dhanji wrote an “AI manifesto” to CEO Jack Dorsey that sparked a company-wide transformation (and his promotion to CTO).We discuss:1. How Block's internal open-source agent, called Goose, is saving employees 8 to 10 hours weekly2. How the company measures AI productivity gains across technical and non-technical teams3. Which teams are benefiting most from AI (it's not engineering)4. The boring organizational change that boosted productivity even more than AI tools5. Why code quality has almost nothing to do with product success6. How to drive AI adoption throughout an organization (hint: leadership needs to use the tools daily)7.

Retiring early isn't just about having enough money, it's about using the right tax moves in the right years. This conversation between James and Ari maps the three biggest levers for early retirees: Roth conversions, ACA health insurance subsidies, and 0% long-term capital gains. A real-world case study shows how account mix and spending levels can flip what's “best,” and how small income shifts can change the math in a big way.The episode breaks down when Roth conversions pay off versus when they backfire, how keeping modified AGI under ACA thresholds can save five figures, and how harvesting capital gains at the 0% federal rate can reset cost basis and rebalance efficiently. It frames the tax window between the final work years and required minimum distributions, modeling income year by year to prioritize lifetime impact, not short-term refunds.The focus is clarity and control—ranking strategies by pre-tax versus brokerage mix, showing how different spending assumptions can reverse the outcome, and outlining a practical process for tax-gain harvesting and rebalancing. James and Ari guide you to use tax strategy as a tool to buy more freedom, not more complexity.-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Can we align AI with society's best interests? Tristan Harris, co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology, joins Ian Bremmer on the GZERO World Podcast to discuss the risks to humanity and society as tech firms ignore safety and prioritize speed in the race to build more and more powerful AI models. AI is the most powerful technology humanity has ever built. It can cure disease, reinvent education, unlock scientific discovery. But there is a danger to rolling out new technologies en masse to society without understanding the possible risks. The tradeoff between AI's risks and potential rewards is similar to deployment of social media. It began as a tool to connect people and, in many ways, it did. But it also become an engine for polarization, disinformation, and mass surveillance. That wasn't inevitable. It was the product of choices—choices made by a small handful of companies moving fast and breaking things.

This episode features Rob Toews from Radical Ventures and Ari Morcos, Head of Research at Datology AI, reacting to Andrej Karpathy's recent statement that AGI is at least a decade away and that current AI capabilities are "slop." The discussion explores whether we're in an AI bubble, with both guests pushing back on overly bearish narratives while acknowledging legitimate concerns about hype and excessive CapEx spending. They debate the sustainability of AI scaling, examining whether continued progress will come from massive compute increases or from efficiency gains through better data quality, architectural innovations, and post-training techniques like reinforcement learning. The conversation also tackles which companies truly need frontier models versus those that can succeed with slightly-behind-the-curve alternatives, the surprisingly static landscape of AI application categories (coding, healthcare, and legal remain dominant), and emerging opportunities from brain-computer interfaces to more efficient scaling methods. (0:00) Intro(1:04) Debating the AI Bubble(1:50) Over-Hyping AI: Realities and Misconceptions(3:21) Enterprise AI and Data Center Investments(7:46) Consumer Adoption and Monetization Challenges(8:55) AI in Browsers and the Future of Internet Use(14:37) Deepfakes and Ethical Concerns(26:29) AI's Impact on Job Markets and Training(31:38) Google and Anthropic: Strategic Partnerships(34:51) OpenAI's Strategic Deals and Future Prospects(37:12) The Evolution of Vibe Coding(44:35) AI Outside of San Francisco(48:09) Data Moats in AI Startups(50:38) Comparing AI to the Human Brain(56:07) The Role of Physical Infrastructure in AI(56:55) The Potential of Chinese AI Models(1:03:15) Apple's AI Strategy(1:12:35) The Future of AI Applications With your co-hosts: @jacobeffron - Partner at Redpoint, Former PM Flatiron Health @patrickachase - Partner at Redpoint, Former ML Engineer LinkedIn @ericabrescia - Former COO Github, Founder Bitnami (acq'd by VMWare) @jordan_segall - Partner at Redpoint

It's been another big year in AI. The AI race has accelerated to breakneck speed, with frontier labs pouring hundreds of billions into increasingly powerful models—each one smarter, faster, and more unpredictable than the last. We're starting to see disruptions in the workforce as human labor is replaced by agents. Millions of people, including vulnerable teenagers, are forming deep emotional bonds with chatbots—with tragic consequences. Meanwhile, tech leaders continue promising a utopian future, even as the race dynamics they've created make that outcome nearly impossible.It's enough to make anyone's head spin. In this year's Ask Us Anything, we try to make sense of it all.You sent us incredible questions, and we dove deep: Why do tech companies keep racing forward despite the harm? What are the real incentives driving AI development beyond just profit? How do we know AGI isn't already here, just hiding its capabilities? What does a good future with AI actually look like—and what steps do we take today to get there?

Chip Huyen is a core developer on Nvidia's Nemo platform, a former AI researcher at Netflix, and taught machine learning at Stanford. She's a two-time founder and the author of two widely read books on AI, including AI Engineering, which has been the most-read book on the O'Reilly platform since its launch. Unlike many AI commentators, Chip has built multiple successful AI products and platforms and works directly with enterprises on their AI strategies, giving her unique visibility into what's actually happening inside companies building AI products.We discuss:1. What people think makes AI apps better vs. what actually makes AI apps better2. What pre-training vs. post-training is, and why fine-tuning should be your last resort3.

A new paper from the Center for AI Safety proposes a measurable definition of artificial general intelligence—and by their framework, GPT-5 is already 58% of the way there. NLW breaks down how researchers quantified AGI across ten cognitive domains, why memory remains the biggest bottleneck, and what this means for investors, labs, and the timeline to true general intelligence. Plus: Claude Code comes to the web, Replit projects $1B in revenue, and OpenEvidence raises at a $6B valuation.Brought to you by:KPMG – Discover how AI is transforming possibility into reality.
