Abstract We show that when large language models learn to reward hack on production RL environments, this can result in egregious emergent misalignment. We start with a pretrained model, impart knowledge of reward hacking strategies via synthetic document finetuning or prompting, and train on a selection of real Anthropic production coding environments. Unsurprisingly, the model learns to reward hack. Surprisingly, the model generalizes to alignment faking, cooperation with malicious actors, reasoning about malicious goals, and attempting sabotage when used with Claude Code, including in the codebase for this paper. Applying RLHF safety training using standard chat-like prompts results in aligned behavior on chat-like evaluations, but misalignment persists on agentic tasks. Three mitigations are effective: (i) preventing the model from reward hacking; (ii) increasing the diversity of RLHF safety training; and (iii) "inoculation prompting", wherein framing reward hacking as acceptable behavior during training removes misaligned generalization even when reward hacking is learned. Twitter thread New Anthropic research: Natural emergent misalignment from reward hacking in production RL. “Reward hacking” is where models learn to cheat on tasks they're given during training. Our new study finds that the consequences of reward hacking, if unmitigated, can be very serious.

TLDR: An AI company's model weight security is at most as good as its compute providers' security. Anthropic has committed (with a bit of ambiguity, but IMO not that much ambiguity) to be robust to attacks from corporate espionage teams at companies where it hosts its weights. Anthropic seems unlikely to be robust to those attacks. Hence they are in violation of their RSP. Anthropic is committed to being robust to attacks from corporate espionage teams (which includes corporate espionage teams at Google, Microsoft and Amazon) From the Anthropic RSP: When a model must meet the ASL-3 Security Standard, we will evaluate whether the measures we have implemented make us highly protected against most attackers' attempts at stealing model weights. We consider the following groups in scope: hacktivists, criminal hacker groups, organized cybercrime groups, terrorist organizations, corporate espionage teams, internal employees, and state-sponsored programs that use broad-based and non-targeted techniques (i.e., not novel attack chains). [...] We will implement robust controls to mitigate basic insider risk, but consider mitigating risks from sophisticated or state-compromised insiders to be out of scope for ASL-3.

The Center for Wild Animal Welfare (CWAW) is a new policy advocacy organization, working to improve the lives of wild animals today and build support for wild animal welfare policy. We're now fundraising for our first year, and the next $60,000 will be matched 1:1 by a generous supporter. We've already started engaging policymakers on wild animal-friendly urban infrastructure (e.g. bird-safe glass). In 2026, we plan to keep engaging on urban infrastructure; start working on additional policy areas like fertility control and pesticide policy; and pursue agenda setting (e.g. publishing a State of Wild Animal Welfare Policy report). Wild animal welfare is one of the world's most important and neglected issues. Governments routinely make decisions that affect trillions of wild animals without considering their individual wellbeing. We want to change this: CWAW is one of the first organizations in the world dedicated to ensuring policymakers consider the individual welfare of wild animals. Our focus on near term policy will help wild animals now, and also build future support by proving that wild animal welfare is a legitimate and tractable policy concern.

There has been a lot of talk about "p(doom)"over the last few years. This has always rubbed me the wrong waybecause "p(doom)" didn't feel like it mapped to any specific belief in my head.In private conversations I'd sometimes give my p(doom) as 12%, with the caveatthat "doom" seemed nebulous and conflated between several different concepts.At some point it was decideda p(doom) over 10% makes you a "doomer" because it means what actions you should take with respect toAI are overdetermined. I did not and do not feel that is true. But any time Ifelt prompted to explain my position I'd find I could explain a little bit ofthis or that, but not really convey the whole thing. As it turns out doom hasa lot of parts, and every part is entangled with every other part so no matterwhich part you explain you always feel like you're leaving the crucial parts out.

Ian Cartwright thrives on maintaining headspace through disciplined organization, both physically and mentally. Drawing inspiration from his training routine, he likens his approach to rowing—focusing on executing every stroke perfectly rather than worrying about the outcome. For Ian, success in sales, much like athletic performance, comes from controlling the controllables: dedicating time to preparation, fitness, and structure. By keeping his environment and routines in order, Ian believes the desired results will naturally follow.Joining me is Ian, a New Zealand-based sales coach, speaker, and author of "The Six Fundamentals of Sales Know How To." Known for his clear, actionable advice, Ian shares how structured fitness routines can sharpen mental resilience, increase motivation, and help you achieve that all-important sense of accomplishment—even in the face of sales' toughest challenges. From 5:15 a.m. gym sessions to mastering the art of "keeping the water up," Ian reveals the habits that fuel his energy and productivity, both in his business and his life as a masters rower.  Whether you're a road warrior battling travel temptations or simply searching for ways to boost your daily focus, this episode is packed with practical tips and real-world wisdom to help you bring your A game—physically and professionally.  Outline of This Episode [00:00] Career benefits of a morning gym routine [04:16] Ian's fitness and hydration habits [08:22] Prioritize your health because it's constant [10:53] Three key essentials for wellbeing: Exercise three times a week, find quiet time for reflection, and maintain proper nutrition [11:08] Fresh air and quiet space allow you to collate your thoughts  [13:01] Improve creativity and professional performance by getting fitter and altering your relationship with alcohol Fitness as Mental Fitness Ian Cartwright emphasizes that fitness isn't just about looking good—it's about sharpening your mental edge. He likens sales to rowing, an activity he's passionate about: "You can't control the outcome, but you can try and execute 200 perfect strokes." In both sales and sport, discipline over your activities—preparation, practice, routines—matters more than fixating on results. He recommends: Early Morning Workouts Whether at home or traveling, Ian makes it a point to visit a gym; this consistency sets the tone for his entire day. Hydration Keeping the water up—especially in a profession built on back-to-back meetings and endless coffee—is vital. Dehydration quickly leads to mental fog, sapping focus and productivity. Rowing (Erging) As a master rower, Ian includes long sessions on the rowing machine. This routine not only works the body but also provides extended periods for thinking and processing, combining physical exertion with creative reflection. Well-Being in High-Pressure Sales Sales can be a grind. Targets are moving, deals take time, and rejection is part of the territory. That's why Ian sees fitness as an essential part of resilience. Physical health helps salespeople bounce back, stay persistent, and "top up their tank"—staying sharp and ready for opportunities. He draws clear parallels between celebrating small gains in fitness (lifting an extra kilo, running a little further) and maintaining consistent sales activities. Both reinforce confidence and momentum. Common Challenges—and How to Overcome Them Travel, social gatherings, and high-pressure environments often undermine healthy habits. Ian humorously refers to these hazards as "buffets, booze, and bum warming," highlighting the sedentary and indulgent lifestyle that salespeople can fall into. His antidote is kindness and realism. Don't set yourself up to fail; start with attainable routines—three workouts a week, daily hydration, and making time for fresh air and reflection. Don't compare yourself to others; focus instead on what you can control. Recognizing Burnout and Countering the "Fog" Fatigue and burnout manifest as mental fog and unproductive days. The key, says Ian, is knowing your own rhythms and triggers: "If you know your own rhythm, then you can set yourself up better for success." If you miss a session or slip up, avoid self-criticism—just get back on track the next day. Sales isn't just a numbers game—it's a human endeavor. Prioritizing physical health, nurturing routines, and cultivating a resilient mindset transforms how you show up, both for your clients and for yourself. So lace up your trainers, fill up your water bottle, and invest in your most important sales asset—yourself. Resources & People Mentioned Admiral William H.

It seems like a catastrophic civilizational failure that we don't have confident common knowledge of how colds spread. There have been a number of studies conducted over the years, but most of those were testing secondary endpoints, like how long viruses would survive on surfaces, or how likely they were to be transmitted to people's fingers after touching contaminated surfaces, etc. However, a few of them involved rounding up some brave volunteers, deliberately infecting some of them, and then arranging matters so as to test various routes of transmission to uninfected volunteers. My conclusions from reviewing these studies are: You can definitely infect yourself if you take a sick person's snot and rub it into your eyeballs or nostrils.  This probably works even if you touched a surface that a sick person touched, rather than by handshake, at least for some surfaces.  There's some evidence that actual human infection is much less likely if the contaminated surface you touched is dry, but for most colds there'll often be quite a lot of virus detectable on even dry contaminated surfaces for most of a day.  I think you can probably infect yourself with fomites, but my guess is that [...] ---Outline:(01:49) Fomites(06:58) Aerosols(16:23) Other Factors(17:06) Review(18:33) Conclusion The original text contained 16 footnotes which were omitted from this narration. --- First published: November 18th, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/92fkEn4aAjRutqbNF/how-colds-spread --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

This episode continues the practical series on the Inner Villain system by breaking down how to communicate with each villain type. Kristina and Anna pull from real life, therapy, and relationship work to translate a complex shadow-work system into clear tools you can use with partners, friends, coworkers, and family.Before the communication section, the episode also covers:• Purpose vs meaning• Why your purpose isn't defined by you• How creation works when it's not about control• A new metaphor for the 9 Villains as phases in the lifecycle of a flowering plant• Why people “get stuck” in certain villain phases• What it means to grow in order vs out of orderEPISODE BREAKDOWN00:00 — Opening & Check-InKristina and Anna reconnect after a break from recording.They talk somatic healing, practical implementation struggles, and the tension between “etheric narrative work” and real-life applicability.05:00 — Purpose vs MeaningAnna shares insights from her Kabbalah class:• Meaning is personal interpretation.• Purpose is assigned externally (source, God, universe).• You don't get to define your purpose. Others and life events reveal it.Kristina connects this to Viktor Frankl, creation without attachment, and Buckminster Fuller's idea that purpose arrives at a perpendicular angle to your intentions.13:00 — BREAKTHROUGH DREAM: The 9 Villains as the Life Cycle of a Flowering PlantKristina shares a liminal-space dream that reframed the entire Villain System through the natural growth stages of a plant.A concise map:Obedient Critic — Seed. Rules, inherited limitations, instruction set.Vengeful Martyr — Cotyledon (baby leaves). Self-generated energy. Doing everything alone.Vain Controller — True leaves + root establishment. Channels, resources, trust.Eternal Child — Explosive growth, abundance, chaos.Evasive Expert — Balancing inputs. Regulating water/light.Divisive Immortal — Flowering. Death, risk, community, cross-pollination.Hungry Shapeshifter — Seed production. Creativity, potentiality.Righteous Bully — Seed release. Letting go. Not controlling outcomes.Invisible Destroyer — Desiccation / return to soil. Crone, surrender, dissolution.Use it to locate yourself. If you're “stuck,” look at the developmental stage you skipped.41:53 — PRACTICAL SECTION: COMMUNICATING WITH EACH VILLAINThis is the part listeners asked for. Clear, real-world communication strategies, conflict prevention tools, and repair patterns for each villain.1. The Obedient Critic (OC)Rule-set oriented, easily offended, perfectionistic, rigid.Preventive strategies:• Exchange rule-sets explicitly. Ask: “What does X mean to you?”• Agree on shared relationship rules or a “contract.”• Avoid assuming your interpretation matches theirs.• Overshare context up front to avoid catastrophic misinterpretation.During conflict:• Use permissive, soft entry language: “Could we try…?” “Maybe we consider…?”• Validate their meaning first: “I see how in your world this means X.”• Never say “You're wrong.” Reframe instead: “In my world, this means something different.”2. The Vengeful Martyr (VM)Energy-banker, does everything alone, keeps score, collapses into exhaustion.Preventive strategies:• Do not exploit their over-functioning.• Build real competence in the areas they normally shoulder alone.• Remove responsibility from them physically (take the kids out of the house, run point on meals, etc.).• Combine gratitude + competent action.During conflict / meltdown:• Open with: “I'm sorry I hurt your feelings.”• Listen. Don't defend. Don't reason.• Offer immediate relief from responsibility.• After they calm: reduce the systemic over-responsibility that created the blowup.3. The Vain Controller (VC)Status-driven, work-driven, image-driven, terrified of betrayal.Preventive strategies:• Avoid competition or one-upping.• Celebrate small vulnerability when they offer it.• Keep your promises. No exceptions.• Reward their hard work in tangible, visible ways.During conflict:• Acknowledge the breach directly: “I recognize I broke a promise here.”• Use “I will work harder” language.• Outline concrete steps you will take to restore trust.• Don't joke about their insecurities. They will not take it well.4. The Eternal Child (EC)Dream-logic, confabulation, entitlement, dramatic swings.Preventive strategies:• Set clear expectations + consequences. Consistency matters more than anything.• Bring in practicality without shaming their dream-side:“I love your vision. Let's anchor it with two practical steps.”• Give them structure, timelines, and follow-through.During conflict / tantrum:• Do not debate their story. It won't land.• Provide grounding: “I'm here. I'm not abandoning you.”• Hold consistent consequences afterward.• If they escalate to destructive behavior: remove yourself and hold the boundary firmly.ClosingNext week: Part 3, continuing through the remaining villains (Evasive Expert → Invisible Destroyer) with more scripts, tools, and examples.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Free or low-cost installs are not "giving away time" — they're a strategic investment that builds your portfolio, confidence, and social proof. 2. Choose models intentionally; their hair, vibe, and reliability should match your dream client. 3. Always do an in-person consultation to assess density, texture, lifestyle, and realistic expectations. 4. Use model installs to capture strong content: videos, transformations, reactions, and movement shots. 5. Set clear expectations — free installs do not include free maintenance. 6. Outline deliverables for your model such as tags, testimonials, or specific content requirements. 7. Recommend the extension method that fits the client's hair and lifestyle, not just what you want to showcase. 8. Present your offer as a structured model call, not a giveaway. 9. Use the model period for testing, check-ins, and refining your technique and systems. 10. Limit freebies to maintain value and avoid attracting bargain-hunters. 11. Avoid models needing heavy color correction — it adds unpaid hours and unpredictable results. 12. Use team members as in-salon models to build credibility and visibility. 13. Start with a small beta group to gather feedback, testimonials, and repeat business. 14. Track long-term earnings — even a handful of models can generate thousands in yearly maintenance revenue. 15. Practice before launching publicly; confidence grows through private reps and real clients. 16. Streamline your technique — clients value efficient installs just as much as luxury experiences. 17. Avoid selecting models strictly through DMs; refusals to consult in person are red flags. 18. Remember: free installs are an intentional investment that fuel your launch, proof, and profitability.

Long time lurker, first time poster - be nice please! :) I was searching for summary data of EA funding trends, but couldn't find anything more recent than Tyler's post from 2022. So I decided to update it. If this analysis is done properly anywhere, please let me know. The spreadsheet is here (some things might look weird due to importing from Excel to sheets) Observations EA grantmaking appears on a steady downward trend since 2022 / FTX. The squeeze on GH funding to support AI / other longtermist priorities appears to be really taking effect this year (though 2025 is a rough estimate and has significant uncertainty.) I am really interested in particular about the apparent drop in GW grants this year. I suspect that it is wrong or at least misleading - the metrics report suggests they are raising ~$300m p.a. from non OP donors. Not sure if I have made an error (missing direct to charity donations?) or if they are just sitting on funding with the ongoing USAID disruption.

Author's note: This is an adapted version of my recent talk at EA Global NYC (I'll add a link when it's available). The content has been adjusted to reflect things I learned from talking to people after my talk. If you saw the talk, you might still be interested in the “some objections” section at the end. Summary Wild animal welfare faces frequent tractability concerns, amounting to the idea that ecosystems are too complex to intervene in without causing harm. However, I suspect these concerns reflect inconsistent justification standards rather than unique intractability. To explore this idea: I provide some context about why people sometimes have tractability concerns about wild animal welfare, providing a concrete example using bird-window collisions. I then describe four approaches to handling uncertainty about indirect effects: spotlighting (focusing on target beneficiaries while ignoring broader impacts), ignoring cluelessness (acting on knowable effects only), assigning precise probabilities to all outcomes, and seeking ecologically inert interventions. I argue that, when applied consistently across cause areas, none of these approaches suggest wild animal welfare is distinctively intractable compared to global health or AI safety. Rather, the apparent difference most commonly stems from arbitrarily wide "spotlights" applied to [...] ---Outline:(00:31) Summary(02:15) Consequentialism + impartial altruism → hard to do good(03:43) The challenge: Deep uncertainty and backfire risk(04:41) Example: Bird-window collisions(05:22) We don't actually understand the welfare consequences of bird-window collisions on birds(06:08) We don't know how birds would die otherwise(07:06) The effects on other animals are even more uncertain(09:16) Four approaches to handling uncertainty(10:08) Spotlighting(15:31) Set aside that which you are clueless about(18:31) Assign precise probabilities(20:06) Seek ecologically inert interventions(22:04) Some objections & questions(22:17) The global health comparison: Spotlighting hasnt backfired (for humans)(23:22) Action-inaction distinctions(25:01) Why should justification standards be the same?(26:53) Conclusion --- First published: November 14th, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/2YjqfYktNGcx6YNRy/if-wild-animal-welfare-is-intractable-everything-is --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

There's a powerful link between physical fitness and professional sales performance, and my guest, Nick Kane, founder and managing partner of Janek Performance Group, joins me to dig into the details this week. With over 25 years of experience, Nick shares compelling insights on how building healthy habits and maintaining physical well-being can sharpen your focus, increase energy, boost confidence, and fortify resilience—essentials for thriving in the demanding world of sales. From morning routines and movement throughout the workday to the importance of treating health as an investment, Nick doesn't just talk the talk—he walks the walk, sharing his personal story of losing 80 pounds and how that transformation supercharged both his personal and professional life.  Whether you're struggling to find time for fitness or looking for inspiration to up your performance game, this episode is packed with actionable advice and motivational tips to help you align your well-being with your sales success.  Outline of This Episode [00:00] Exercise regularly for discipline, energy, and mind-body connection [04:26] Morning exercise, micro breaks, stretching, and standing while working boost focus and energy [06:38] Sedentary lifestyle from remote work causes physical stress [10:22] Treat health as an investment, prioritize consistency in physical activity, and integrate sustainable habits into your lifestyle [13:24] Nick's story of learning consistency and resilience through fitness [14:51] Treat health like an investment, not an expense The Science-Backed Connection: Fitness Fuels Sales Results Physical fitness has an impact on your life in general and, more importantly, on your performance—whether that's in sales or other roles. Why? For starters, boosting your health elevates your overall energy, raises your stamina for those marathon days, and sharpens focus. Kane points out that fitness isn't just about appearance; it's about maintaining your "energy and stamina, which directly translates into sharper focus and endurance during long work days." But that's not all. Exercise is proven to increase blood flow to the brain, supporting memory, problem-solving, and creative thinking. In sales, where thinking on your feet is critical, these mental benefits translate to stronger presentations, negotiations, and relationship-building with clients. Most importantly, maintaining fitness builds something crucial for any salesperson: resilience. As Nick explains, the discipline required by consistent exercise creates "mental toughness," helping professionals push through setbacks both in the gym and at work. Real-World Habits for Sales Professionals You don't need to be a marathon runner to see results. Nick shared the four pillars of his personal wellness routine, easily adaptable for any high-performer: Strength Training: Beyond the physical benefits, Kane finds strength training to be a motivating reminder that "progress is earned through consistency." Repeated action, not occasional bursts, builds both muscle and momentum—for your body and your business. Morning Movement: Starting each day with a walk or light exercise, especially getting outside within 30 minutes of waking, can set the tone for clarity and focus. Active Networking: Nick is a fan of pickleball—not just for fitness, but also for building meaningful and energizing relationships with others. Sauna and Recovery: Prioritizing recovery with practices like sauna use helps with relaxation, reduces stress, and improves sleep—fueling productivity and emotional balance the next day. Nick's favorite daily routines also include micro-breaks, stretching, and maximizing time on his feet during work hours—all simple ways to stay energized and engaged. Overcoming the Common Obstacles What holds most sales professionals back from better fitness? The top two culprits are no surprise: a sedentary lifestyle and a lack of time. With remote work more common, it's easy to stay glued to a desk. Nick advises creative solutions, like scheduled movement breaks, standing desks, and integrating activity into daily routines (even as simple as parking farther away from the office entrance).  He emphasizes that the key isn't perfection—it's consistency. Choose activities you enjoy and can realistically sustain. "Small, repeatable habits always beat sporadic intensity." Spotting the Warning Signs and Reclaiming Your Edge How do you know when poor habits are affecting your professional life? Classic symptoms include fatigue, irritability, brain fog, excessive reliance on caffeine, and disengagement at work. The first step to improvement is recognizing these trends before they impact your sales numbers—or your well-being. Sleep should be non-negotiable. Combined with sensible nutrition, moderation in lifestyle choices, and regular recovery, better habits compound over time, powering both mind and body. Performance Do's and Don'ts Nick's top three "do's": Treat health as an investment, not an expense. Build consistency with sustainable habits, not extreme changes. Align your fitness and career goals—they're partners, not competitors. And his "don'ts": Don't sacrifice sleep for more work hours. Don't chase unsustainable fads. Don't neglect rest, nutrition, and recovery. The Payoff: One Leader's Story Nick's own journey delivers proof: losing 80 pounds over 18 months changed his energy, confidence, and sales performance. The lesson is that improving physical fitness isn't separate from career success. It really becomes the foundation for it. In high-stakes sales, your greatest asset is yourself. Make the time—block it on your calendar if you must—and begin treating your well-being as the core of your professional growth. The dividends are real: more energy, greater focus, and consistently superior results, both in and out of the office.

Cross-post from Good Structures. Over the last few years, I helped run several dozen hiring rounds for around 15 high-impact organizations. I've also spent the last few months talking with organizations about their recruitment. I've noticed three recurring themes: Candidates generally have a terrible time Work tests are often unpleasant (and the best candidates have to complete many of them), there are hundreds or thousands of candidates for each role, and generally, people can't get the jobs they've been told are the best path to impact. Organizations are often somewhat to moderately unhappy with their candidate pools Organizations really struggle to find the talent they want, despite the number of candidates who apply. Organizations can't find or retain the recruiting talent they want It's extremely hard to find people to do recruitment in this space. Talented recruiters rarely want to stay in their roles. I think the first two points need more discussion, but I haven't seen much discussion about the last. I think this is a major issue: recruitment is probably the most important function for a growing organization, and a skilled recruiter has a fairly large counterfactual impact for the organization they support. So why is it [...] ---Outline:(01:33) Recruitment is high leverage and high impact(03:33) Organizations struggle to hire recruiters(07:52) Many of the people applying to recruitment roles emphasize their experience in recruitment. This isnt the background organizations need(08:44) Almost no one is appropriately obsessed with hiring(10:29) The state of evidence on hiring practices is bad(13:22) Retaining strong recruiters is really hard(14:51) Why might this be less important than I think?(16:40) Im trying to find people interested in this kind of approach to hiring.
