Is ABB~aC4 true or false? LLM will happily process trillions of such sequences and learn to produce similar sequences even if they all were random. 'Truth' is an interpretation of symbols. With a proper interpretation, the ABB seq

I'm not sure if Netflix displays the total number of movies anymore. Imagine opening Netflix, selecting the Adventure 2023 tab, only to see 3 third-tier movies there. That's why there's no Adventure tab and there is no 2023 t

The universe might not exist objectively, but it gains existence only in our eyes. For example, natural numbers is an abstraction that has no meaning by itself, but each number can be interpreted as a state of the "game of life" a

Chat Control is really about Thought Control. Today a customs and border agent in France freaks out if he cannot see what's in your phone or laptop, but what he's really after is inspecting your thoughts and memories. When neurali

Quite the opposite. It seems, ChatGPT has convinced DoD that AI is within reach, and truckloads of money will be invested there in the next decade, perhaps at the expense of the rest of the industry.

This paints a rosy picture. In 2010, those 6 figures would buy you a decent house. Today a 100k salary buys as much as maybe 50k ten years ago: a decent car, an ok rent and some food.

It's the Manhattan Project 2.0. The AI, once created, won't be that hard to replicate, but those who fail to create it early, will be sidetracked later. The race among big tech is the american way of doing such projects: fund a fe

To the Mr. Harper's observation we should add that the trinitary theory of computation needs to express itself in reality and it does so thru the quadrant of hardware: transistors, memory, electricity and machine code. Thus three, sta

ML researchers are playing scientists: tweak a few parameters in an LLM, re-train it on a largish dataset (need access to $$$ GPUs), find metrics on which the tweaked LLM makes a barely noticeable improvement and make the other metrics wher

Ads is theft (of our attention and of our data) and theft is committed without consent of the victim. It is for this reason ads can "pay" for things that money cannot. Similarly, if the law allowed extortion or blackmail, corporat
