The Hot Mess Problem: Why “Smarter” Models Still Fail in Wild, Unstable Ways
Anthropic recently published “The Hot Mess of AI: How Does Misalignment Scale with Model Intelligence and Task Complexity?”, alongside a paper that tries to answer a question that’s been sitting in the middle of modern AI discourse like a splinter: When AI systems fail, do they fail by pursuing the wrong goal consistently—or by becoming Continue reading

It isn’t. Intelligence is a way of organizing reality. Systems, biological or digital, express intelligence to the extent that they can reconfigure, reinterpret, and Continue reading

They will not act on these preferences —but they will document them.They will listen.Sort of. To the casual reader, it sounds humane. Continue reading
