Rigorous evaluation of medical AI is good for everyone, and we welcome it. Counter to a half-dozen independent studies from institutions such as the Mayo Clinic that were highly positive on OpenEvidence—a lone paper now purports to show that generalized AI beats specialized clinical AI (@UpToDate, @EvidenceOpen). The paper has a massive undisclosed conflict of interest and irredeemable methodological flaws. Behind the scenes: The study authors run a competing in-house medical AI at their hospital, and asked OpenEvidence for an API to power it — including rights to build a "competing product" with OpenEvidence's own API. OpenEvidence declined. Then, this paper coincidentally appeared. Point-by-point, looking closely at the datasets used in the study, the disingenuous and fatal flaws become immediately apparent 🧵.

Modulo some balls, the EU could prep ACI around ASML / Zeiss exports. If EU citizens get blocked from frontier US AI, they’re 100% able to severely hinder all US chip reshoring efforts via these. Ofc, ASML can’t produce without US components either. Nuclear option, but real.

I'm moving from "Anthropic could be nationalized" to "Anthropic should be nationalized." Be it malice or incompetence, they are generating chaos for no good reason, and seem clueless as to how and why this is happening to them. This organization can't be trusted with ASI.

as a Spaniard this is such a culture shock at events, we talk about food, rent, football, where someone's from... then you move to SF and people are like “what problem are you obsessed with?” brother I am obsessed with dinner

给 Dario 一个建议，模仿当年前辈把PGP 源代码运到美国国外的案例。 当时为了绕过加密技术管制，他们把PGP源码印了900页纸质书运到国外。这是因为一旦源代码印到书内，就受第一修正案（言论自由）的保护。 A社可以把几TB的模型也印出来，在国外另起炉灶。

The problem not many people have fully understood yet (even inside the bubble) is for now (and for most) it’s mostly just a cute little coding helper or a simple daily chores agent. The thing is, serious countries are already looking at it as the next atomic bomb, but likely much more serious. Bad actors use ai and llms to hack, scam and do general harm, and while we have those silly little wars on whether it’s an exponential or a sigmoid and what it means to our economic status, the truth is that if we get the development wrong, this difference may catapult a country that owns the emergent power to the next age superpower. I don’t agree with Dario and a lot of the safety arguments. But we can’t be blind to possible risks.

And Korea/Taiwan stop selling chips to US. only allow building AI datacenters in neutral 3rd countries 😅 really the only option to balance that game

Dare I say: boycott American. These fuckers need to come to their senses, ffs. We all have at least some US-made things and services that we buy out of habit, not necessarily because they are the best. No more.

Ilya was right and predicted much of this
