They are always gamed. The moment a "secret" test set is sent to a closed model, it's no longer secret. So every benchmark is compromised.

I suspect they even train adapters daily on github just for something hard to game like SWE-rebench. If I was launching a trillion dollar IPO I certainly would.

Since the courts fucked them any way, they took the reach around.

A nation can obviously make it traceable if it wants, it can also make it untraceable if it wants.

The app can just check your physical ID with NFC offline, set a flag "yep, older than 15" and be done with it.

"QR" code on screen (a RGB using code works better) mobile phone app sends confirmation with data from the code.

The Claude part wasn't autonomous anything. Just using Claude to help find an exploit in open source software to breach OpenAI due to shit network segmentation and login re-use (amateur hour).

It's awfully convenient they used Claude to throw shade at OpenAI.

Amazing the kind of PR campaigns a trillion dollar IPO can create.

Who is paying those independent evaluators?

Any way, best way to slow down at the moment is not to IPO.

That gives Anthropic the right to suspend service.

Thus its perfectly legal to train on your exfiltrated data.

PS. as long as you stay inside the Apple ecosystem I think you always need one device left registered to the account (directly or through recovery contact) to restore the backup. I don't think the customer service based account recovery (last ditch, prove identity through passport/etc) recovers the passkeys from icloud backup. Every ecosystem will differ.

With Android, iOS and MacOS they aren't on disk exactly. The database is encrypted with a hardware bound key and only opened inside a secure enclave. Windows Hello probably too.

I never expected Google and Apple to export to third party vaults, or the user hostile FIDO to create a standard to export to non manufacturer attested endpoints.

If the initial finite volume for a finite big bang was large enough and we were not too close to the centre or edge, it would look like that. All the proof could be beyond our current measurement capability.

They have enough cosmic coincidences to deal with, without a cosmology where our view of the universe is privileged in such a way it makes it look unprivileged. Why would science Satan do that?

The usual assumptiom is that there is no source of the big bang, everything banged.

With enough mathematical wrangling, you could probably make current observations compatible with a centered big bang (far enough on the edge you might not be able to tell the difference). But it would be blasphemy to cosmologists to even try.

Risk costs money, this is a subsidy for Google.

As expected.
