Hinton says things like
"...we're optimized for having not many experiences. You only live for about a billion seconds—that's assuming you don't learn anything after you're 30, which is pretty much true. So you live for about a billion seconds and you've got a 100 trillion connections. So [you've] got crazily more parameters than you have experiences. So our brains [are] optimized for making the best use of not very many experiences."
- necovek 5mo agoA billion seconds is around 34 years, so I'd say we live for two billion seconds. But that's a good way to look at it: in 2B seconds, how many experiences can we get?
