  • The Biochemical Beauty of Retatrutide: How GLP-1s Actually Work
    On some level, calories in calories out has to be true. But these variables are not independent. Bodies respond to exercise by getting hungry and to calorie deficit by getting tired. Even absent that, bodies know how much food they want, and if you don’t give it to them they will tell you at increasing volume until you give in (not all bodies, of course, but quiet stomachs aren’t the target...

But some of the most important things are most effectively pursued indirectly. For example: But why is it more effective to pursue some things indirectly, rather than directly? Sometimes it’s because it’s unclear how […]...

  • What is Lesswrong good for?
    If you want to learn something, usually the best sources are far from Lesswrong. If you're interested in biochemistry, you should pick up a textbook. Or if you're interested in business, find a mentor who gets the business triad and throw stuff at the wall till you know how to make money. And yet, Lesswrong has had some big hits.

  • Current Language Models Struggle to Reason in Ciphered Language
    tl;dr: We fine-tune or few-shot LLMs to use reasoning encoded with simple ciphers (e.g. base64, rot13, putting a dot between each letter) to solve math problems. We find that these models only get an uplift from the reasoning (over directly answering) for very simple ciphers, and get no uplift for intermediate-difficulty ciphers that they can translate to English.

    This is a Draft Amnesty Week draft. It may not be polished, up to my usual standards, fully thought through, or fully fact-checked. Commenting and feedback guidelines: This draft lacks the polish of a full post (I wrote this in ~30 minutes), but the content is almost there. The kind of constructive feedback you would normally put on a Forum post is very welcome.

  • Recontextualization Mitigates Specification Gaming Without Modifying the Specification
    Recontextualization distills good behavior into a context which allows bad behavior. More specifically, recontextualization is a modification to RL which generates completions from prompts that discourage misbehavior, appends those completions to prompts that are more tolerant of misbehavior, and finally reinforces the model on the recontextualized instruction-completion data.
