Summary

The article questions whether AI labs are exaggerating alignment problems, citing OpenAI's half-trained model solving a Millennium Prize problem as evidence and suggesting possible serious undisclosed issues within the labs.

Did we forget that OpenAI had a half-trained model solve a Millennium Prize problem? The model wasn’t even finished training. Do you realize how utterly bonkers that was? Maybe something genuinely went sideways in the last few days, inside the AI labs? Something serious enough that they’re not ready to make the full picture public?
