I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. In science and engineering, being able to provide justification is a core skill. The comparison we should be making is against the human practitioners who are trained in…
Dude, these two things are not at all analogous: 1. Asking a model why it did a certain thing, and 2. Expecting a human to say which neuron fired in their response.
So nature doesn't exhibit justice, but a society likely needs to implement it, yes? But you don't want to say who gets to receive those rights? Some might say that those millions of dying children is an injustice that…
There will always be scarcity and inequality. The point is to minimize/mitigate their effects. Can't you make the same argument for justice? Why does everyone deserve justice? Isn't that just entitlement? What is the…
There is value in critically evaluating ideas and possible endeavors. On the other hand, demanding an answer to every little pocket of uncertainty creates a huge burden that prevents exploration. It's one thing to be…
I'm curious about manufacturing from like 10-20 years ago. Would it be cheap to make a RAM chip from like 15 years ago? Or would it just not even work with our modern hardware? Like if we want more of something, can we…
I think a big part of undergraduate math is theory/abstraction building, which is usually very different than the activity of programming. I've studied quite a bit of math, so I can appreciate both. But I can definitely…
You're posting this in a thread filled with stories which paint him as an asshole.
Reducibility is usually a goal of intellectual pursuits? I don't see that as a fault.
