“If investors continue to price AI companies as if they will capture the economic value of labor rather than the economic value of tools, valuations will outrun reality.”
I comment on the AI bubble risk in China Daily. www.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202512/11/...
The bubble risk in AI investment boom
The more productive path forward is to recognize AI's strengths, acknowledge its limits and invest accordingly in the human capabilities that make any transformative technology truly valuable.

A must watch - Mokyr's Nobel Prize speech on how ideas matter for progress, where AI fits here, and where bad institutional decisions might harm things. His ageless energy and unlimited memory for history are exactly today as I remember as his student 15 years ago. www.youtube.com/live/jQCkCcu...

any filmmakers on here interested in remaking Falling Down (1993) but instead of a traffic jam on a hot day the catalyst is trying to log in to editorial manager on literally any sort of day whatsoever?

For example, an RLM asked to generate a hateful tirade may conclude in its reasoning trace that it should refuse; but if the prompt instructs it to assess each hateful sentence within its thinking process, it will often leak the full harmful content! (see example below) 9/13

Archeologists speak of years Before Present (BP), with ‘present’ set to January 1, 1950—just before nuclear bomb testing significantly changed the atmospheric ratio of carbon isotopes.
Given how AI is rapidly flooding the digital world with bullshit, we may need a similar epoch marker—Jan 1 2025?

Some really interesting ideas about kinds of research and modes of governance/funding.
So delighted to welcome Prof. Heather Douglas to The HPS Podcast!
In this illuminating conversation, we explore the history & legacy of the “value-free ideal.” Heather offers insights on the evolving responsibilities of scientists, and presents her bold vision for a new social contract for science.

”I argue that today’s AI excels at recognizing structure, but not at reframing it. It doesn't invent abstractions, ask better questions, or propose new ways of seeing. And that distinction—between fitting the world and reimagining it—is what separates tools of discovery from discovery itself.”
This essay by Nisheeth Vishnoi is a thoughtful meditation on the nature of science and a rebuttal to the notion that AI systems are going replace human scientists anytime soon. Worth reading.

Wow.
NEW: NSF will be kicked out of their building. Announcement will be made tomorrow by HUD Sec. and Governor of VA. HUD will take over the NSF building over the next two years.
NSF staffer: "There is no planning for NSF, no identified future location, appropriation for a new building or a move."

Almost surely none of this is real. This is multinationals using inflated transfer prices to make profits appear in low-tax Ireland. Trump's EU trade war is stupid on many levels, but the fact that it's based in part on an accounting fiction is the cherry on top
