Iran Guards say two oil tankers hit by mines in Hormuz
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…

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…
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…

생성 AI의 확산은 기업의 업무 방식뿐 아니라 소비자가 제품과 브랜드를 탐색하는 방식까지 바꾸고 있다.포털이나 이커머스 플랫폼에서 키워드를 검색하고 여러 결과를 직접 비교하던 과정에 AI에게 자신의 상황과 조건을 설명하고 적합한 제품을 제안받는 방식이 더해지고 있다.AI 마케팅 솔루션 기업의 전략을 총괄하는 입장에서 이 변화에 주목하는 이유는 명확하다.AI가 업무 생산성을 높이는 도구를 넘어 소비자와 브랜드를 연결하고 구매 결정에 영향을 미치는 새로운 접점으로 부상하고 있기 때문이다.이러한 변화와 함께 주목받는 개념이 AEO(답변
