Jack Clark's latest covers the AGI Economy paper (verification as binding constraint), AI Gamestore (frontier models score under 10% of human performance on games), Agents of Chaos (multi-agent security failures), and Physical Intelligence (robot brains deployed for laundry and packaging). The strongest single-issue synthesis in weeks. Import AI

Three standout papers from Jack Clark's latest: (1) "Some Simple Economics of AGI" (MIT/WashU/UCLA) models a future where humans shift to verification work, warns of a "Hollow Economy." (2) AI GAMESTORE benchmark: SOTA models achieve under 10% of human baseline on 100 simplifi...
(Jack Clark) — Three essential threads: (1) MIT paper on "Some Simple Economics of AGI" modeling the transition via automation cost vs. verification cost curves, warning of a "hollow economy" of counterfeit utility; (2) AI Gamestore benchmark where frontier models achieve <30%...
Jack Clark's Import AI #461 covers Sequent, founded on the view that frontier labs' reactive approaches won't keep pace with superintelligence development. Instead of reacting, it plans a portfolio of "differentiated alignment bets." Worth noting for anyone tracking where inde...
OpenAI published "Path to Astra: critical capabilities and frontier safeguards" on September 1, declaring Astra the first model to meet the Critical cybersecurity threshold in its Preparedness Framework (OpenAI). Critical, in their own definition, means the model can find and...
Import AI 470 walks through a METR note measuring where LLMs moved the needle (Import AI). Vulnerability reports accelerated across cURL, OpenSSL, Firefox, Microsoft, the US NVD and OSV in 2026 against 2025. Math shows arXiv submissions doubling in some areas plus named result...
A group including Tri Dao, Jürgen Schmidhuber, Joshua Tenenbaum, Thomas Griffiths, and James Whittington encoded 70 hidden-rule discovery games as short strings where both the transformation rules and the win conditions must be inferred through experimentation (arXiv 2608.1259...
