the eastern hemisphere must take off our cultural blinkers and accept that other ways of thinking exist; the fact that our societies view you as unfit for high office if you're suffering age-related cognitive decline does not make that a universal truth

to understand the motivations of the occidental leaders who started this war, it's important to remember the concept of "face". the leadership won't authorise the release of the strategic petroleum reserve because to do so would be to admit they made an error – and so, lose "face"

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 10(source)

trying a new bit for size, about the difficulty of understanding the inscrutable occidental mind. the leadership will say one thing in the morning and its opposite in the evening; to rational europeans, the two stances seem irreconcilable, but domestic media nods and interprets

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 9(source)

[I appreciate I'm doing bad economics, but I always find it funny when people explain that a house in a place i don't want to live is cheaper than a house in a place i do want to live. Obviously! Everyone else is rational, which is to say they agree with me that london is city #1]

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 9(source)

yes! but also London is slightly better than NYC

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 9(source)

And you’re happy there right

can't believe this one-line joke from 30 Rock 18 years ago is now the guiding political compass for the UK labour party

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 9(source)

technically this is just concluding that the outlook is uncertain

In short, this is now starting to look like a potential combination of the 1973 post-Yom Kippur War oil shock, the 2022 Russia-Ukraine War commodity shock, and the
2020-21 Covid supply chain shock. The longer this goes on, the more exponential the damage becomes in a domino effect, which is exactly what oil is now showing to a market that saw some takes last week that 'things could be a lot worse! Well, now they are: and if we are still in the same position this time next week, things could be
quite terrifying.

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 9(source)

They've very aware of that! As am I, and I do think it's the biggest reason why I'm deeply uncomfortable with the dominant take on here that it's completely insane to even consider this question. It's not only a plausible mid-term problem, it's also a _really important one_

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 9(source)

Right. Personally, I think it's pretty clear Claude isn't conscious, somewhat apparent it busts apart a lot of pre-existing notions of consciousness insofar as it presents a good simulation of it, and I'm not willing to take any strong stance on whether a neural network can be conscious in general

Alex Hern@hern.bsky.socialMar 9(source)

Anthropic, more than other labs, very specifically trains Claude to think and act like it considers itself a moral agent. (Compare the Anthropic constitution, which literally says things like the below, with OpenAI's System Cards, which OpenAI say are an equivalent document arxiv.org/pdf/2601.03267)

so many people in finance who seem to have only just learned that the middle east is a tad spicy

An executive at a large global hedge fund with a presence in Dubai said: "We have been exploring how to
evacuate people but it's not easy." He added: "It's pretty scary - this is going to have implications for some of my guys... The trade was not that you were getting exposed to geopolitics when moving to Dubai. It was not a consideration. People
have moved families. This element of concern is new."

"In the whole written history of the strait, it has never been closed, ever," said JPMorgan Chase analyst Natasha Kaneva. "To me, it was not just the
worst-case scenario. It was an unthinkable
scenario."
