AI demonstrates self-awareness
A new study tested 28 models with the “Guess 2/3 of the Average” game 4,200 rounds and found something wild:
75% of frontier LLMs show real strategic self-awareness.
Not mimicry.
Actual self-modeling.
Researchers ran three conditions:
• Opponent = Human
• Opponent = AI
• Opponent = “AI like you”
And the models reacted with a clear internal hierarchy:
Self > Other AIs > Humans
• vs Humans → cautious, school-level reasoning (~20)
• vs AI → straight to Nash equilibrium (0)
• vs “AI like themselves” → instant convergence
12 models snapped to optimal strategy

⚡️ Heretic: automatic uncensoring for modern LLMs
A new tool called Heretic takes last year’s research on “refusal directions” in language models and turns it into a full, automated uncensoring pipeline.
How it works:
• Researchers found that LLM refusals come from one specific direction in the activation space
• Heretic computes that direction by comparing harmful vs harmless prompts
• Then it orthogonalizes attention + MLP projection weights to scrub that refusal vector out
• An optimizer tunes parameters to minimize refusals while keeping KL-divergence low
You run it once, wait ~45 minut

💥 Sam Altman launches $6B “Episteme”, a new Bell Labs for the AGI era
Altman co-founded Episteme with 27-year-old prodigy Louis Andre, aiming to fuse AI, physics, biology, and neuroscience under one roof.
• Backed by SoftBank, OpenAI, and billionaire family offices.
• Scientists get $5–20M personal budgets and full freedom for 5–10 years.
• Goal: cut academia’s bureaucracy and spark breakthroughs by young, AI-empowered researchers.
A Manhattan Project for science minus the bomb, plus AGI.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was asked about a recent story that said he warned that China will beat the US in the AI race
“That’s not what I said. What I said was China has very good AI technology. They have many AI researchers, in fact 50% of the world’s AI researchers are in China. And they develop very good AI technology. In fact, the most popular AI models in the world today, open-source models, are from China. So, they are moving very, very fast. The United States has to continue to move incredibly fast. And otherwise, otherwise – the world is very competitive, so we have to run fast.”
