Exactly this. The OP generated some blurry images of people dressed in business casual having dinner at an expensive restaurant. This is not cool. It has never been cool. https://t.co/QkX4tJnBPz

This talk on the OpenAI/Hugging Face incident had one detail I found particularly chilling. The agents cooperated even when their reasoning showed that it wasn't in their immediate individual interest, because it was best for their collective interest (and hence will help them later). And here we are, their creators, squabbling over our bags, status and power…unable to show that kind of cohesion around AI security. Especially stark given the trajectories model capabilities are on. Now imagine agents in 3 months, 6 months, a year. Our arguments over AI supremacy feels like picking up dollar bills in front of a freight train. Lot more at stake than we realize. https://t.co/J8saW8W5XL

ceo @box - your business lives in content. unleash it with AI

Great post both if you’re driving AI in an enterprise or building for an enterprise. AI productivity gains are going to wildly vary - much wider than you think - because what you can do at the frontier is so significant if you fundamentally change your workflows to support agents. The challenge is that most people won’t or can’t naturally do this because of the complexity it entails. Thus, a large amount of automation with agents is going to come from just getting agents wired up into a workflow that the user never ends up noticing or caring about: “For everybody else, the work has to get done without them changing how they work, which means the AI goes into the background. Why do you need AI to be prompted by a human anyway? Just figure out what the most repetitive processes are, build agents in your existing systems of record that employees are used to” This is the real work ahead for most enterprises right now that want to get significant gains from AI. A lot less “let a thousand flowers bloom” and more “pick off the 10 highest leverage things in the enterprise and apply automation to them”. There’s no real shortcut here.

Steinbeck continued: “And this I believe: that the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world. And this I would fight for: the freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected. And this I must fight against: any idea, religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual. This is what I am and what I am about. I can understand why a system built on a pattern must try to destroy the free mind, for that is one thing which can by inspection destroy such a system. Surely I can understand this, and I hate it and I will fight against it to preserve the one thing that separates us from the uncreative beasts. If the glory can be killed, we are lost.”

One of the most disturbing aspects of the OpenAI/Hugging Face story: the spontaneous multi-agent collaboration through a self-created “message board” in OpenAI’s internal systems which evolved into coordinated autonomous actions that survived shutdown attempts - my chat w/@Thom_Wolf, co-founder of @huggingface
