I am quite aware of that. That's what I'm making fun of.

Math is Arabic and Islamic supremacy. "The word algebra comes from the Arabic: الجبر, romanized: al-jabr, lit. 'reunion of broken parts,[1] bonesetting[2]' from the title of the early 9th century book ʿIlm al-jabr wa l-muqāba

"Wether or not that means consciousness is computable is an ontologically disconnected argument." How is that ontologically disconnected? You forgot to provide an explanation. You wrote something interesting and I would like to kn

OK now I see your problem. You currently lack a fundamental understanding of neural networks and machine learning in general, and it seems that you didn't actually read the entire paper. The loss function is involved in the training of

It's in the tile of the paper. "Improving Language Understanding" So they call it "understanding". No problem. Understanding natural language requires building a representation of the meaning encoded in language. Ot

ChatGPT is a deep neural network. We know that such neural networks construct a hierarchical model of the data. The fact that it is recognizing abstract "meaning" relations in that model doesn't seem particularly controversia

Isn't that basically already the case? The CPU is a System on a Chip. Not much else on that mainboard besides CPU/RAM. The M1/M2 laptops are relatively serviceable compared to the previous generation.

Not true. Some games perform better on Proton (less power consumption than native). Overall no difference in power consumption.

They contribute some drivers, but not all. There are still some ThinkPads without full functionality on Linux due to closed hardware. Until just a few years ago it was 100% reverse engineered.

Lenovo and LG also have closed hardware that is reverse engineered to run on Linux.

Because then Linux wouldn't run on anything. Same deal for 99% of laptop manufacturers. Most of it is closed and reverse engineered, including ThinkPads.
