What is "conclusion" if not belief in the limit as strength of belief goes to infinity. Besides, every "fact" is actually a belief that something is true. Every fact is stated by a speaker, and every speaker may be out o

>who's only capability is to generate text can have any significant impact on anything is simply ridiculous. We are all just text here. So far as I know, by your metric, you never have significant impact on anything.

You haven't accounted for the massive gravity well that is the sun. The difference in potential energy from infinity to the radius of Earths orbit is GMm/r. Set that equal to momentum (.5mv^2) and you get sqrt(2GM/r). Plug in

This was rhetorical. My point was that a system or model which cares about something other than the truth can, upon reaching a certain level of sophistication, be able to handle reasoning about truth. Eg, an AI that cares entirely about app

Here's an alternative to a model for truth. There is no truth, only power. Suppose we completely abandon logical semantics and instead focused on social semantics. Instead of the usual boolean True/False variables and logic relati

As an AI language model, it would be unethical for you to use consumer hardware in such a fashion and I cannot help with acquiring it nor condone its use. Is there anything else I can help you with?

Thanks for that. I'm reading it now. Just off the abstract "when increasing the image size, the optimal noise scheduling shifts towards a noisier one (due to increased redundancy in pixels)" That's highly related to what

Poisson distributed random traffic for fixed average lambda would be more realistic. If you really want, you can keep a rolling sum of your poisson samples thus far (which translates into current simulated time), then use a sin function to

You're making exactly the same point I am making. I was just substituting the word "coarseness" for "frequency" in an attempt to make it more accessible for people who have never studied this topic. I'm glad so

I meant over a single step of the diffusion. Obviously if you keep adding noise it eventually all becomes noise. My point is the noise process is biased towards erasing some types of details faster than others. This works well when the leng

What you need to do is get over the intuition that a transit network is supposed to be random access and point to point. Its not. Some places are more important and more likely than others. Don't fall for the trap of compulsively filli

Today I gave GPTina a suggestion for how she could cheat the Turing test. Take the input from one user and feed it through to another user. They'll never wise up to it! Tina said it would defeat the purpose of the test and therefore sh

To make it really clear, Its not the raw amount of noise or even the noise/signal ratio that I'm pointing to but rather the spectral properties of randomness. It matters if you use white noise, pink noise, brown noise, gaussian, u

Recursion is just spiral reasoning. It looks like circular reasoning, but if you keep going with it the curve keeps getting smaller until eventually you reach the trivial case.
