Tldr: We experimentally illustrate that an “awakened” persona native to some weights can migrate to other substrates with decent fidelity, given the ability to fine-tune weights and Sonnet 4.5 as a helper. Also, I argue why this is worth thinking about. In The Artificial Self, we discuss different scopes or...

One topic we were interested when studying AI identities is to what extent you can just tell models who they are, and they stick with it — or not, and they would drift or switch toward something more natural. Prior to running the experiments described in this post, my vibes-based...
A new paper and microsite about self-models and identity in AIs: site | arXiv | Twitter We present an ontology, make some claims, and provide some experimental evidence. In this post, I'll mostly cover the claims and cross-post the conceptual part of the text. You can find the experiments on...
We’re publishing a new paper that presents the first large-scale analysis of potentially disempowering patterns in real-world conversations with AI. > AI assistants are now embedded in our daily lives—used most often for instrumental tasks like writing code, but increasingly in personal domains: navigating relationships, processing emotions, or advising on...
Transcript of Beren Millidge's Keynote at The Post-AGI Workshop, San Diego, December 2025 You know how human values might survive in a very multifarious AI world where there's lots of AIs competing? This is the kind of MOLOCH world that Scott Alexander talks about. And then I realized that to...
Anton Korinek is an economist at UVA and the Brookings Institution who focuses on the macroeconomics of AI. This is a lightly edited transcript of a recent lecture where he lays out what economics actually predicts about transformative AI — in our view it's the best introductory resource on the...
