The lost "work" is two years of ChatGPT logs. Sounds like AI systems had concrete benefits to this researcher in a number of applications, but I'm not sure how I feel that their discussions with AIs are so casually being desc

Is there anyway to try this without logging in?

Funny how in a world of AI, human curation is becoming more important.

I appreciate that this figure is showing that the relative scarcity of gold compared to oil increasing, but I'm not sure what it's saying, or is interesting beyond that? Is this reflecting a global shift towards natural gas rather

Definitely says something, but I'm not sure what. How are you interpreting this?

Just wanted to say this post has caused a huge spike in traffic to my language's website: a dizzying ~40 visitors per day up from ~0 haha!

As a scientific researcher, I use LLMs all the time. Mainly in place of Google search, to help write code and maybe summarize a paper here and there etc. But I definitely don't use it for the actual scientific process e.g. hypothesis g

I get why this is problematic for industries that depend on high traffic for ad revenue etc, but is bad for websites who are actually trying to market services that provide tangible value? Like if I’m searching for a dry cleaner in Glasgow,

Over the last few years, I’ve been working on Zyme, an esoteric language for genetic programming: creating computer programs by means of natural selection. I’ve started seeing promising results, showing that random bytecode mutations can, o

You're right - a disassembler would be incredibly valuable; and while I haven’t gotten around to implementing one yet, it’s definitely on my radar. But even the idea of even having an assembler is exciting because it suggests the outpu

Thanks! Since the language is still in its early stages of being able to evolve programs, I don't have many examples to share yet. I didn’t realize when I began but developing the language itself was just the beginning - I hadn't

Sadly not. When I was developing Zyme, I was thinking a lot about the molecular components of a cell and how one might translate them into a virtual machine. I was particularly inspired by enZYMEs.
