The most spectacular plot in the Gödel Darwin paper is the one below, with the seeds of perpetual motion, escaping the clutches of mediocrity. How did they do it? Among key ingredients was the extremely lucid insight by the authors that self improvement is, itself, a coding

What an enormous privilege to give the opening lecture at the OxML summer school this morning. Never have I had such a thought-provoking set of audience questions! Here's to the automation of innovation towards human flourishing alongside the next generation of researchers.

It’s been a while since I have read a neuroscience manuscript in depth but this one published in Nature was a gem 💎 & interesting to compare how the brain learns vs deep learning. 👇 The setting here is on the topic of systems consolidation - the brain’s mechanism to turn

Are AI scientists already better than human researchers? We recruited 43 PhD students to spend 3 months executing research ideas proposed by an LLM agent vs human experts. Main finding: LLM ideas result in worse projects than human ideas.

Having competed in the IMO, I find the generalist training this work provides to be its most incredible aspect. 🧙‍♂️ No more rabbithole specialization as we did in high school, thinking specifically about olympiad problem solving 🤔, eating and sleeping olympiad problems.

Congrats to our very own Google DeepMind and Thang Luong for getting the first OFFICIALLY VERIFIED AI Gold at the IMO. As a former IMO student, it was heartening also to see Google respecting the brilliant students at the IMO, to follow the official rules and deferring the

Super awesome opportunity from Google research!! If I am not mistaken this team is under the visionary Blaise Agüera (@blaiseaguera.bsky.social) Fun fact: I was originally hired by Blaise to Google. If you’re interested in making the big leap toward understanding intelligence and the origins of sentient
