When you are developing an autocratic regime within an elected system, criminal extralegal military action reveals who the leaders are who will act criminally (are "loyal") segregating them from the constitutional adherents who op

I'm concerned that coders and the general public will confuse optimization with intelligence. That's the nature of propaganda, substituting sleight of hand to create a false narrative. btw an excellent explanation, thank you.

It doesn't happen "btwn ears" and math is an illusion of imprecision. The fundamental barrier is frameworks and computers will not be involved. There will be software obviously. But it will never be computed.

It's not magic. It's neural syntax. And nothing trapped by computation is occurring. It's not a model, it is the world as actions. The computer is a hand-me-down tool under evolution's glass ceiling. This should be obvio

It's science under the creative boundary of binary/symbols. And as analog thinkers, we should be developing far greater tools than these glass ceilings. And yes, having finished the film, it's far more propagandic than it beg

Agency will emerge from exceeding the bottleneck of evolution's hand-me-down tools: binary, symbols, metaphors. As long as these unconscious sportscasters for thought "explain" to us what thought "is", we are trappe

I'm an hour into it, unconvinced. The illusion that agency 'emerges' from rules like games, is fundamentally absurd. This is the foundational illusion of mechanics. It's UFOlogy not science.

Sharp wave ripples, nested oscillations, cohering at action-syntax. The brain is "about actions" and lacks representations.

Symbols and binary will never get us to "I believe that artificial general intelligence (AGI) is achievable." And the problem is circular: as the Riley Verge piece citing Fedorenko https://news.ycombinator.com/item

The key is that there is no content to thought. It's all nested oscillations. It can't be extracted as symbols, so there is no connection between them. Words play the role of a sportscaster reading the minds of the players by obse

Language may ultimately be maladaptive as it is arbitrary and disconnected from thought. Who cares about the gibberish of logic/philosophy when survival is at stake in ecological balance? The key idea is, there are events. They are rea

As there are no symbols in our brains, using symbols as transport for 'intelligence' is oxymoronic. Symbols are the bottleneck to intelligence, not the referential or representation of it. This is basic stuff, folks. The brain doe

It's not evolutionary, that's functionality. There are no algorithms in nature. Evolution is a tinkering process that finds by selection, and functionality is what we post-hoc add to the success. Anything reduced to symbols is sim

Whatever gets predicted by tokens gets summarized by symbols, which are artifacts of language. This gets to the illusory aspects of binary as well, the rabbit hole goes deep.
