Oh, actually it was ~3/15. But all of my own time. I then handed things over to my co-author who did a ~12 minute talk on GANs

My co-authors have completed one of the projects I was working on with them before I went on disability leave. Check out this great explainer thread from @davidlindner.bsky.social

New Google DeepMind safety paper! LLM agents are coming – how do we stop them finding complex plans to hack the reward?

Our method, MONA, prevents many such hacks, *even if* humans are unable to detect them!

Inspired by myopic optimization but better performance – details in🧵

Another more specific way people can help: does anyone know if it’s safe to take betahistine if I have MCAS? And does taking antihistamines make betahistine ineffective?

Posting a call for help: does anyone know of a good way to simultaneously treat both POTS and Ménière’s disease? Please contact me if you’re either a clinician with experience doing this or a patient who has found a good solution. Context in thread
