Prediction text

Plugins/marketplaces will get built into baseline models and won't need to exist independently. | these plugins and the marketplaces of the plugins are so absurdly simple that I would reasonably expect these plugins are going to get just built in since they're just scaffolding anyway, built into the next baseline version of the model and won't even need to exist independently in the future.

Verbatim quote

From episode "Amazon's $35B AGI Ultimatum to OpenAI & Anthropic Drops AI Safety | EP #235"
these plugins and the marketplaces of the plugins are so absurdly simple that I would reasonably expect these plugins are going to get just built in since they're just scaffolding anyway, built into the next baseline version of the model and won't even need to exist independently in the future.

What if this resolves?

Clamp this prediction TRUE or FALSE and run a counterfactual Gibbs sample. Surfaces the predictions whose marginals shift most under that assumption.
(live posterior: 38%)

Click a button to clamp this prediction and run a Gibbs sample. Returns the predictions whose marginals shift most. ~30s per run; ideal for stress-testing "if X resolves, what else moves?"
