I think the contentious tone within the comment combined with the mathematical abstrusity makes it doubly difficult to determine whether the criticism stems from correcting proper high-level-math-other-people-don't-understand or just a personal axe to grind with... someone (openai? sam altman? gradient.ai? meta?).
To those who don't understand the math (or its implications/connections to the shared link here, especially since the link is sparse on details unless you know where to look), I could see how a reader would lean toward the latter and downvote without comment.
- benreesman 2y agoA sibling asked about the math, I gave some hopefully useful analogies. I’m happy to elaborate further on what a colossal waste of money the current mega autoencoders are and why this follows from some geometry and topology that’s table stakes in AI now. “Jail Altman” is basically my sig now. And no one wonders why someone would be passionate about that. Not in good faith.
