@nickcammarata i dont think any lab has gotten less leaky honestly. i assume if anthropic or deepmind or openai actually find another Q* you’ll hear murmurs within the week

@willdepue I hear about all hands from like three sources who heard it from a collective ten other sources within about an hour of it happening without trying to or any care about what the all hands said but I have hope for them, maybe they can bubble it internally

not bc others wouldn’t find it but because a year or two of absurd aura where no one else is near you is worth a lot for feedback loopy winner take all games
