Ezra Klein interviewed Jack Clark co-founder of Anthropic*

“If Clark intended any of this to sound remotely reassuring, then I don't even know what to say.”

                                                                                                  hed secondem
Wha the hell was tha


they conversed about Anthropics Claude quoting their introduction “a next-generation AI assistant . . . train(ed to be a) helpful, honest, and harmless AI (system).”

 

not uncommon his irritation when listening to discussions about AI a sceptic he was struck by Clarks repeated insistence to use probably because Klein is Jewish schlep  Yiddish  German  that he hadnt heard since schleppinround Evanston Illinois as a teenager

                                                     out of the mouths of tattooed shopkeepers
Holocaust camp survivors

    he took exception

also of his repeated insinuation Claudes intuition
                                                      that Klein made him back off of
where then he gamed “seeming intuition” Drop it Jack

Clark was hesitant to call Claude a chatbot  when pressed on agent  he said agentic in obvious preference to the adjective rather than noun form


he said his interactions with Claude evolved from him using very specific commands tasks for Claude to perform  Claude would then question he would say interrogate  although hed admit his distaste scepticism of any AI  questioned the tasker

Clark alluded to displaced employees the next diaspora their opportunity to become artisans think guild mentality think Medieval guilds think moneyed overseers landholders lords think servitude think serfs think what coarse garment one will wear over their nakedness

                                                              he did say he was sceptical
