Reposted by Tony OnodiAlex Hern @hern.bsky.social · 29/09/2026When assessing claims like “are the labs sincere about their concern that recursive self improvement is imminent, or is it simply marketing”, I think a useful data point is that openAI is now on a weekly release cycle for point improvements. 2205
Tony Onodi @tonyonodi.bsky.social · 24/09/2026They’re criminally negligent, but this isn’t a fair comparison. AFAIK all the models involved in these incidents don’t have the alignment training and safeguards public models have. Almost no one could make a public OAI model do this if they tried 010

Tony Onodi @tonyonodi.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Imo deploying nuclear reduces the amount of renewables + storage that we need to deploy, because the nuclear plants should be running all the time if they can be. I've never really heard a good answer on this 100
Tony Onodi @tonyonodi.bsky.social · 17/07/2026I'm not convinced this works, or not how people think it does at least. If you build enough nuclear capacity to make up for renewables' worst days, you might as go all nuclear rather than ramping a v expensive asset up and down, no? 100
