Description

I’m really excited to resume the Interconnects Interviews with Dean W. Ball from the Hyperdimensional Substack. We cover the whole stack of recent happenings in AI policy, focusing of course on California’s bill SB 1047. We cover many, many more great topics here including:

  • What will happen in the case of a minor AI disaster,
  • If Meta will release the 405B model, and why,
  • The status of Chinese open-source AI,
  • Training on model outputs,
  • Anthropic’s recent strategy,
  • What scaling laws actually mean,
  • Creating content and shifting the needle of the AI discourse.
