Part of me wants to be able to encode my life2vec and see what the next predicted tokens are. On the other hand, as much as going to a fortune teller sounds fun to me, I worry that if I go I will simply make what they say come true since I will be anxious about what the fortune teller said.
That said, my life is already on a certain track, and because I'm afraid of change, it's unlikely to be much different than it was before. Maybe this is just a weird call to actually do what your gut says, and to follow your dreams.

- jedberg 3y agoThat's sometimes but not always, or even often, true. You're thinking of accidents or death. But what about marriage or jobs or education or divorce? Those usually require an active choice (or many of them).
- nsagent 3y agoThat's a debated topic. See the recent book by Stanford neuroendocrinologist Robert Sapolsky "Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will."
- jedberg 3y agoIt's true, any system is 100% deterministic when you get to a low enough level, but we can't observe it and saying so is rather pointless.
