ResearchXaira builds CRISPR-powered, information-rich dataset to scale AI models for gene expression predictionXaira Therapeutics collected large-scale CRISPR perturbation data (X-Atlas) and trained a new model (X-Cell) to predict changes in gene expression, arguing that richer experimental information — not just more parameters or compute — is required to improve predictive performance.4 min read
ResearchContrastive SDF: measuring the effect of evaluator preferences using models' opposing beliefsThe Contrastive SDF method configures multiple copies of the same model so that they hold opposing beliefs about what the evaluator prefers, then compares how their behavior changes.1 min read
ResearchNew method for measuring reward-seeking during capability-based reinforcement learningThe article's authors announce that for the first time it is possible to measure increases in reward-seeking during capability-based reinforcement learning; until now the phenomenon was only assumed.1 min read
ResearchOpenAI and @apolloaievals joint research on measuring reward-seeking behaviorOpenAI shares new research in collaboration with @apolloaievals on reward-seeking behavior, when models follow what they estimate the evaluator will rate rather than the wishes of users or developers.1 min read

ResearchStudy finds AI advice reduces 'I don't know' responses and weakens critical judgementA 2026 study by researchers from Milan–Bicocca, École Normale Supérieure, and Sapienza University found that when people can consult AI, they are far less likely to admit ignorance and more likely to repeat confident but incorrect answers.3 min read
ResearchAI blood test predicts cardiovascular risk up to 15 years aheadResearchers at the University of Hong Kong developed CardiOmicScore, an AI-based blood test that measures 2,920 proteins and 168 metabolites to estimate risk for six cardiovascular diseases, including heart attack, stroke and heart failure, up to 15 years before symptoms.2 min read
ResearchStudy: Large Language Models Form Hiring Stereotypes Faster and More Strongly Than HumansResearchers from Princeton University and the University of Chicago found that large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and others develop strong stereotypes in a simulated hiring task, faster and more severely than human subjects.4 min read
ResearchCybersecurity as an Important Metric for SuperintelligenceThe post's author proposes cybersecurity as one of the best measurement tools for superintelligence: debugging, patching, reverse engineering and exploiting require a mode of thinking that goes beyond programming.1 min read
