Here's the thing. If any of my work is in their model, then I co-own their model as well as everything it makes. I guarantee it's scraped our work. So where's our paychecks.

The more I talk to people about consciousness and personal experience, the more I notice that most people hold some very strong unquestioned assumptions about these concepts. The first and most frustrating confusion that comes up repeatedly

The process designed to optimize for attracting our attention has done what it was designed to do: optimized for attracting our attention, at the cost of all other incentives. The image of a throbbing, mutating, dark spiral is conjured in m

By that logic, all of the Earth and the moon were once parts of stars, so tidal and geothermal are also solar. When people say "solar energy", they are usually referring to first order solar energy, directly from photons, not seco

I think that this waters down "brute force" to the point of meaninglessness. If employing transformer architectures trained on data to hack a system is the same as using a for loop to enumerate over all possible values, then I hav

I love how fun this is. It has so much personality. Definitely can see the pico8 and aseprite inspiration. I think what could be really interesting is some procedural generation brushes... Like a brush that generates a random city-scape as

There's always two sides to a coin right? While everything you said is true, I think that there's a pattern people are generally aware of in this world. Things that don't serve a purpose, vanish. We see it in worker replaceme

As a schizotypal person, I'm unsure how more people aren't exhibiting paranoid schizophrenic symptoms in this wildly untrustworthy digital age. Yesterday a good friend reached out to me on a new phone number to wish me happy holid

You understand how the brain works right? It's probability distributions mapped to sodium ion channels. The human understands nothing.

I don't agree with puritanical laws like this, but I do believe that the quantity and quality of porn consumed in the US constitutes a non-trivial public mental health crisis, and I hope that this will drive into people the serious ris

Death is just the name we give to the moment when the condensed energy that is moving this system that calls itself a body breaks down into a temporarily simpler state. At some point I'll get caught up in some whirlpool of energy and f
