First author of the critique @vincentholst.bsky.social presented "How Open Code and Data Unveiled Errors in Measuring Scientific Disruption" at STI 2024 in Berlin. Slides available here: data.research.vub.be/sites/defaul... Yes, we firmly agree on the importance of open science in these matters! 🔓

One thing I really appreciate the authors of this comment did was make this online Q&A page about this work, the process behind it, and why it took three years to get it published. vincentholst.github.io/the_curious_…

Happy to see our work, published in Nature (rdcu.be/fzwzq), picked up by The Economist. We made a page where we answer the most pressing questions publicly. The Curious Case of the Declining Disruption's Disappearance (vincentholst.github.io/the_curious_...). Open Science meets Brandolini.

Toen Don’t look up uitkwam bedacht ik hoe de metafoor tot vervelens toe misbruikt zou worden in opiniestukken. Ik keek neer op mijn toekomstige zelf. Is er nog íémand bekommerd om de gevaren van AI? www.standaard.be/cnt/dmf20250...

Is er nog íémand bekommerd om de gevaren van AI?

Op de AI-veiligheidconferentie was niemand bezig met de gevaren van AI. Alles was pr en machtsstrijd. Het doet Vincent Ginis denken aan de film Don’t look up.

If humanity goes down, let it at least be with poetry—not with 'OpenAI o5 (high),' but with a name the people chose. Something dignified. Something noble. Like Chatty McChatface.

The people who are not particularly surprised by recent developments in AI are by and large saying AGI could be soon. The people confidently saying AGI won’t be soon are the same people who kept being very surprised by advancements over the past years.

Happy #GlobalSwitchDay to those who celebrate! Today I will start looking into moving my old YouTube channel to PeerTube. It's a non-profit, decentralized and open-source project. joinpeertube.org

Join the Fediverse #GlobalSwitchDay.
8 suggestions for switching platforms:
WhatsApp to Signal,
Reddit to Lemmy,
X to Mastodon,
Instagram to Pixelfed,
Facebook Messenger to Signal,
Facebook to friendica,
YouTube to PeerTube,
TikTok to Loops.video.

Academics worldwide worked to create questions no state-of-the-art AI could answer in Humanity's Last Exam. But the real story isn’t just the questions that got in—it’s the ones that didn’t. Crafting problems that truly push AI is getting harder, and that says a lot about where we are.

Hoe gaan we om met technologie die ons intellectueel voorbijstreeft?

Onderzoekers probeerden vragen te bedenken die AI niet kan beantwoorden. Viel dat even tegen. AI houdt ons een spiegel voor.

It is 2025, and I vaguely remember the time when it was still possible to come up with questions that could baffle state-of-the-art LLMs. Of course, I’m joking. I don’t really remember.

When A.I. Passes This Test, Look Out

The creators of a new test called “Humanity’s Last Exam” argue we may soon lose the ability to create tests hard enough for A.I. models.
