Thank you for commenting this. I'm tired of hearing about Dune like its some kind of utopia

What do you think they're improving on? How would a model self-improve without some metric/data of some kind to check? When you have metrics+data, that is a benchmark. And yes, simulations and or soft-verification like LLM judges are still a kind of benchmarking. Maybe its not a static benchmark they can easily hack.

Folks -- RSI does not mean the self-improvement is them going to therapy and seeking inner peace to overcome trauma.

"For the past 300,000 years, Earth has had only one form of advanced intelligence on it: humans. With the recent advent of AI foundation models, some believe we are at the dawn of a new kind of intelligence. As AI continues to evolve, we may witness the proliferation of diverse intelligent lifeforms coexisting with us."

I am not even going to link more than one thing I think I've made my point

> was posed specifically under the framing of there needing to be more fundamental research beyond squeezing as much as we can out of relatively vanilla transformer stacks.

Not to be contentious, but this is so broad of a description that it could include literally thousands of papers in the last year or two. I'm imagining double digits or more if we go back the full decade.

I'm saving brownie points for people who deserve them

Organizations, especially businesses, are not individuals. If the implication is that David Ha has always been doing this, and will always be doing this, and that Sakana is David Ha ... then that's a far worse insult to the employees at Sakana than my little tweaking.

Genuinely it take a lot of work and talent to be this hype-motivated and completely ignore anything except what is popular on X at any given time.

Note: RSI is an incredibly important topic -- I just don't care to listen to Sakana on this matter -- they are the epitome of "hypebeast" https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=hypebeast

Shall We Play a Game? Language Models for Open-ended Wargames

Wargames are simulations of conflicts in which participants' decisions influence future events. While casual wargaming can be used for entertainment or socialization, serious wargaming is used by experts to explore strategic implications of decision-making and experiential learning. In this paper, we take the position that Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems, such as Language Models (LMs), are rapidly approaching human-expert capability for strategic planning -- and will one day surpass it. Military organizations have begun using LMs to provide insights into the consequences of real-world decisions during _open-ended wargames_ which use natural language to convey actions and outcomes. We argue the ability for AI systems to influence large-scale decisions motivates additional research into the safety, interpretability, and explainability of AI in open-ended wargames. To demonstrate, we conduct a scoping literature review with a curated selection of 100 unclassified studies on AI in wargames, and construct a novel ontology of open-endedness using the creativity afforded to players, adjudicators, and the novelty provided to observers. Drawing from this body of work, we distill a set of practical recommendations and critical safety considerations for deploying AI in open-ended wargames across common domains. We conclude by presenting the community with a set of high-impact open research challenges for future work
