That human intelligence might just be token prediction evolving from successive small bit-width float matrix transformations is depressing to me.

That human intelligence might just be token prediction evolving from successive small bit-width float matrix transformations is depressing to me.
- goatlover 4y agoIs that what biologists or neuroscientists think the nervous system is actually doing?
- triceratops 4y ago> That human intelligence might just be token prediction I mean have you heard the word salad that comes out of so many people's mouths? (Including myself, admittedly)
- londons_explore 4y agoEating salad is good for your health. Not only word salad, but green salad and egg salad.
- mdp2021 4y agoThis trains in seeing what intelligence is not, not the opposite!
- xixixao 4y agoIt’s most fascinating (or very obvious) - look at Conway’s Game of Life, then scale it up - a lot. Unlimited complexity can arise from very simple rules and initial conditions. Now consciousness on the other hand is unfathomable and (in its finitude) extremely depressing for me.
- Der_Einzige 4y agoDear god I hope that we are using something more complicated than sampling with top_p, top_k, and a set temperature as our decoder!
- chriswarbo 4y agoThat's a poor usage of "just": discovering that "X is just Y" doesn't diminish X; it tells us that Y is a much more complex and amazing topic than we might have previously thought. For example: "Life is just chemistry", "Earth is just a pile of atoms", "Behaviours are just Turing Machines", etc.

- goatlover 4y agoUnless nature is mathematical, the linear operators & complex numbers are just useful tools for making predictive models about nature. The map isn't the territory.
- mdp2021 4y agoStop being depressed because it simply, clearly, certainly, is not. I just wrote a few paragraphs about it in an immediately previous post. This confirms that this phase is getting some people fooled on basics.
