Silly image for a serious moment. Open AI just announced 'Chat GPT Gov' - AI for the U.S. government. It's the start of AI-driven governance, of autonomous politics, agentic delivery - promising super services & data-driven policymaking. And/Or an irreversible, technological erosion of democracy?

A recent 'shift' in tone in the AI industry, following the O3 model release, should be on everyone's radar. Three years ago, talking of AGI would have gotten you laughed at.

I read a lot of social science papers on AI and my conclusion is that there are far too few people rigorously studying the implications (good & bad) of LLMs across society & work
Computer science is producing a tide of good AI work. Economics, management, psych, & sociology etc. need to do the same

Could this BE any Skynet-ier? Jokes aside the likes of Palantir and Anduril are reported to be forming a tech consortium to bid for US military contracts.
I think its formation may well be studied, as a moment in history.
Why? It represents many things.

What are governments, economists, unions, educators, scientists, lawyers and the UN (etc) doing about such progress? Not nebulous charters/voluntary safety institutes stuff. Action. Feels like we need adults involved. Walking up AGI's front path (yes yes with big caveats) so quickly is concerning.
Independent evaluations of OpenAI’s o3 suggest that it passed math & reasoning benchmarks that were previously considered far out of reach for AI including achieving a score on ARC-AGI that was associated with actually achieving AGI (though the creators of the benchmark don’t think it o3 is AGI)

Open AI just announced a model that looks like a breakthrough and meaningful step towards (but not achievement of) AGI. I take this seriously as here is Francois Chollet, noted AI expert who was publicly skeptical of current approaches, calling for this to be taken seriously.

You have to admire the bravery here from a journalist, very much abroad. Curious why Putin is suddenly taking hard questions live on air, to humanise himself before Trump led deals? I dislike the somewhat antagonistic phrasing from Beeb yet that aside, admirable stuff from @bbcstever.bsky.social

A competitive AI era could soon emerge into the real world, with bots competing in important areas of business and society.
