I took a trip to San Francisco early in December.

Ever since then, things in the world of AI have been utterly insane.

Google and OpenAI released endless new products, including Google Flash 2.0 and o1.

Redwood Research and Anthropic put out the most important alignment paper of the year, on the heels of Apollo's report on o1.

Then OpenAI announced o3. Like the rest of the media, this blog currently is horrendously lacking in o3 content. Unlike the rest of the media, it is not because I don’t realize that This Changes Everything. It is because I had so much in the queue, and am taking the time to figure out what to think about it.
