The Ledger
Every statement that passed quotation and attribution checks. Mix any filter with any other: certainty 1/5, debate potential 5/5, or both at once.
why aren't all 5 resolved? a statement only gets an assessment when the public record can support or contradict it. opinions and what-ifs never can, and 0 checkable ones are still open, waiting for their date. predictions held up or didn't; assertions are supported or contradicted. on every card: ▮▮▮▮▮ certainty · ▮▮▮▮▮ debate potential. speakers are clickable
Kolter: Neural network architectures matter less than commonly believed
“I actually think architectures don't matter as much as everyone else thinks they do.”
Kolter: Robotics AI is not yet ready for pure compute scaling
“Certain fields. I think things like robotics is still one. I don't think we're quite at the, let's just scale it up level with robotics yet. Some companies might argue we are. I don't think we are. I think we're still in the let's explore methods to find the r…”
Kolter: AI agent benefits outweigh security risks if deployed with proper guardrails
“Yes, I think so, actually. I think if you run with proper guardrails, you know, we release guardrails for coding agents, for example. If you're on proper guardrails with proper sandboxing, and right now, yes, you probably also take some care to be a little bit…”
Text model scaling is one of humanity's top scientific discoveries
“The discovery That when you train big enough models on lots of text, and then turn, and then a little bit of additional sort of, you know, fine-tuning text, and then turn them loose to generate, that this generates long-form coherent thought. That was probably…”
Kolter: AI companies should establish board-level safety and security committees
“I think it's actually very important that AI companies start to establish similar governance policies, because this is something that requires that level of just oversight and of assurance. It is a becoming You know, a massive industry, and just like there are…”
