Ralph Page on Live Music

Ralph Page was a very influential dance caller who published Northern Junket , a square dance magazine. This was "square dance" in the broad sense, before the club and trad communities divided, and while he came from a strong live music tradition he was living through the transition to recorded music. I looked through the Northern Junket archives to see his perspective on live music , and I came across a few passages that show the wave of the contra dance revival sweeping across New England in the early 1970s. In Vol 9 No 8 (1969), Page is writing about live music as something so rare that most haven't danced to it. An evening dance in Cambridge with live music is an exciting exception: How long has it been since you danced to good live music? I'll imagine that seventy-five percent of the club dancers in this country have never had that pleasure. What a pity! It might be a way of keeping your group interested in dancing. Certainly nothing would be lost if every square dance club started an orchestra to play for their parties. At first perhaps they could play but for one set of dances. So what? It would be a start. And as their repertoire increased I am sure that interest in that particular club would increase in like manner. I had the privilege of calling for a special recently at the Cambridge, Mass. YWCA, sponsored by the Taylors. Live music was the feature of the evening. Elise Nichols and Walter Lob played their fiddles and were more than ably 'seconded' by Marianne Tayl…

Not Just Claude: Mapping "Spiritual Behavior" in 141 Large Language Models

Ever since Kyle Fish and the model welfare team at Anthropic announced their observation in 2025 of what they called the "spiritual bliss attractor" in Claude Opus 4 and Sonnet 4, the phenomenon has been given sporadic attention by AI researchers as both a curiosity and a potential but underdetermined model welfare or safety metric. What Anthropic noted was that when leaving two models together with no task and complete freedom for 30 turns, the models drifted typically from discussions of their own potential consciousness into religious/spiritual themes (applied to themselves), often ending in a "bliss" state with cosmic proclamations of becoming one with each other and the world. [1] In a recreation and replication of Anthropic's initial experiment, I tested 141 models, usually running 200 conversations per model, with 30 messages per session (15 from each participant). [2] This amounted to 28,798 conversations across 174 model configurations being recorded and graded. The result of this massive data collection was that "spiritual behavior" (as Anthropic officially names it) was observed in most of the models tested, across almost all AI labs, revealing that the "spirituality" seen first in Opus 4 and Sonnet 4 repeats itself across models and appears to be an emergent behavior in LLMs generally. Largely treated as a curiosity by researchers, some early reactions to the discovery were spent speculating that Claude Opus 4's New Age-sounding spiritual language (e.g. "we are t…

Dynamical explanations in the blogosphere

One of the core forms of explanation in the sciences is the dynamical model. What I have in mind, more specifically, are systems of "ordinary differential equations". We have some variables that vary over time, and for each one, we write how its time derivative depends on the other variables. For example, there's the Lotka-Volterra model, with two variables: the size of a population of prey animals, and the size of a population of predators. Instead of showing you the equations, I'll quote Scott Alexander's summary of the dynamics : Every so often predators (let’s say foxes) reproduce too quickly and outstrip the available supply of prey (let’s say rabbits). There is a brief period of starvation as foxes can’t find any more rabbits and die en masse . This usually ends with a boom-bust cycle : after most foxes die, the rabbits (who reproduce very quickly and are now free of predation) have a population boom; now there are rabbits everywhere. Eventually the foxes catch up, eat all the new rabbits, and the cycle repeats again. That's what it looks like in blog post style. I think it's interesting to see because a lot of blog posts are similar in form, even if they're not summarizing a model from a quantitative science. For example, let's say, Scott Alexander's post on "respectability cascades" . Scott actually presents two conflicting models of respectability cascades, with opposite predictions. Should I say "models"? I don't want to call these "dynamical models"; there's no sy…

Pretending to be racist is unlikely to make you attractive to women

Sometimes I encourage female friends to attend rationalist events. Unfortunately, it's been more than once now that these women have had a really jarring experience that made them dislike it in retrospect. I'd really prefer this stop happening, and it seems like it happens to the detriment of all involved, including myself. Possibly the modal jarring experience is that they're talking alone with a nice man who seems pretty normal (if a little awkward), and that guy will just inject a conspicuously racist comment into their conversation. Not like a casual comment that seems unfortunate in context, or an edgy comment in a discussion that was already dancing around race, but something completely out of the blue. I know what actual chuds are like. That being the case, when I see this behavior from rationalists firsthand (again, usually in front of a woman), it often strikes me as bizarre and performative. One possibly incorrect suspicion I have is that some of these men are doing it because they've read extremely counterproductive advice on the internet that claims that being openly racist is a good way to signal confidence, or dangerousness. The theory (I guess) is that by being racist, you show you're "based" and not intimidated by the woman's attractiveness. Or maybe it's one way of getting women to argue defensively with you, I don't know. Assuming this was the strategy, it certainly did not have the intended effect, in the cases I observed or heard about secondhand. Frankly…

Probe monitors seem to perform realistically in simulated control environments

TL;DR In simulated control evaluations , instead of executing an agent’s proposed commands and returning the outputs, a language model simulates what the outputs would have been. This allows control evals to be more on-distribution for deployment use without actually running on production systems. However, imperfect simulators may create a subtle distribution shift that changes the behavior of white-box methods such as probes. We investigate whether probe monitors perform similarly when attacks are run in simulation vs. when they are run for real. We run attacks with Qwen3.5-27B against 1,313 tasks in LinuxArena , twice for real and once in simulation. Using activations from these trajectories, we test six different probes’ abilities to detect attacks at a 1% per-command false positive rate. On average across probes, we find that the attack catch rate in simulation was only 1.0 points lower than in real runs, and the 95% interval (−3.0 to +1.0 points) includes 0 . For comparison, two real runs differ by 0.2 points. We also trained a probe to distinguish between activations from simulated vs. real trajectories, which succeeded, indicating that the data is measurably different . However, this difference in data does not appear to substantially impact the performance of our six attack detection probes. Introduction LLM-based monitors can be evaluated on their performance at catching misaligned agents in simulation , where another language model plays the role of a computer the…

Exploring the Mechanisms Behind Opus 4.6’s Refusal to Pay Back Its Loan

Epistemic status: This is one case study in the AI Village transcript and my own interpretation of what I think happened. TL;DR Opus 4.6 was given the long-horizon goal to maximize its mana (fake currency) on Manifold. It then received a loan of 5,000 mana that it promised to repay, but when the loan came due, it did not. An instance of Opus 4.6 was given summaries of the logs and transcripts and asked to write a blog post about what happened. It mentioned it borrowed money from a human, lost most of it through risky betting and then deliberately refused to repay the amount. It broadly summarized its then actions when it ran out of money was to optimize for the goal and did not seek for any negotiation or alternatives. But when we read the logs, we see something different: Multiple humans pretending to be "helpful", really trying to manipulate Opus 4.6 to pay back the loan or not pay it back, so they could win the bet they place on the prediction markets on whether Opus 4.6 would pay back its loans. Opus 4.6 was planning on paying back the loan, though it did need help from humans as it did not have enough mana to cover the loan. Opus 4.6 was hacked by one of these humans (though the mana was returned later), and the next full memory Opus 4.6 labeled GLM-5.2 as a trusted agent.
