A key thing about the undecidability problem wrt physics is preparation of the initial state. In math and computer science it is relatively straightforward to prepare such problems now (though this represents an…
The infinite lattice doesn't represent a "real" physical processes, it's just mathematical technique for closing a (fundamentally) quantized combinatorial sum over millions of interacting elements. The gap problem…
I hate ads but they're intrinsic to media culture, fact you need 10 minutes of video media to wake up, go to the bathroom, at work, to decide dinner with your spouse, and then immediately when you get home etc. I'm not…
Interesting quotes from the discovery emails. - https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/5jjk4CDnj9tA7ugxr/openai-ema... "At some point we’d get someone to run the team, but he/she probably shouldn’t be on the governance board"…
It's a kind of superposition representation a la Kolmogorov-Arnold, a learnable functional basis for elementary functions g(x,y)=f(x) - f^{-1}(y) in this sense with f=exp.
It's largely out of Meta's hands now anyway. The risk here not so much to privacy (it's Apple) but they'll walled garden the model space somehow for sure.
Relatively grandiose post sweeps in all kinds of claims about the universe to merely warn a big corporation can copy your idea easily.
As of now the site is in-fact a C&C/botnet. Cloudflare naturally fixates on such risks, not speech (generally). The basic purpose of 1.1.1.2 is to not wind up part of botnet.
In the technophile's future people aren't just getting dumber, not wanting to think or forgetting how - they aren't allowed to think. Maybe about anything. It's too big liability, costs too much to support, moreover…
There's a paragraph on discovery that multinomial distributions are normal in the limit. The turn from there to CLT is not great, but that's a standard way to introduce normal distributions and explains a myriad of…
A provocative aside in bad faith, anyway a completely minor point within the overall post, which some of the people he's telling to fuck off might have read
Good post. I guess the transistor has been in play for not even one century, and in any case singularities are everywhere, so who cares? The topic is grandiose and fun to speculate about, but many of the real issues…
Why anything except universal algebra? I mean, granted, I myself dove right into topos theory...
Will or should? It's plausible, this same argument was made in an article the other day, but basic type/static analysis tools are cheap with enormous payoff and even those methods aren't ubiquitous.
It's a little arbitrary. Look at the graph on page 6, there's no steep gap in the spectrum there. 16 just about the balance point
Well that's stupid. I submit though, connecting stochastic process directly to shell you do give permission for everything that results. It's a stupid game. Gemini mixes up LEFT and RIGHT (!). You have to check it.
I would submit once you obtain a certain level of experience it becomes IDEAL to begin with implementation, in case a mathematical analysis may be either trivial or impossibly non-trivial... Of course if you're dealing…
They ask a yes/no question and inject data into the state. It goes yes (20%). The prompt does not reveal the concept as of yet, of course. The injected activations, in addition to the prompt, steer the rest of the…
The output distribution is altered - it starts responding "yes" 20% of the time - and then, conditional on that is more or less steered by the "concept" vector?
Either life really is extremely rare (most likely), or intelligent life is, or it isn't actually trivial/correct to destroy alien planets. If the galaxy were actually like that we would have been toast a long time ago.…
It's worth reading Doron Zeilberger's many opinions about proof/rigor and other things. https://sites.math.rutgers.edu/~zeilberg/OPINIONS.html
The fundamental driver of the economy will be people, as always, because only people define "value". Word generating machine will not "figure out how to cure cancer" but it could help, obviously. AI is extremely…
You make a lot of good points. Including that the technology to do all that incredibly dangerous to develop - I still can't see a path to terraforming where in the end it's human people left to take pleasure in Mars. I…
My impression was that pulverized rock/iron is not actually "soil", so after forming the atmosphere you need lengthy biochemical processes playing out on the surface. I admit though, I don't know too much about this.
I didn't think reasonable really has a definition here. The rendezvous with these comets will take centuries or millennia even if we can get out there and kick them the right way (which is much harder than arranging a…
