Ah, didn't know the term for this, but vaguely remembered articles multiple models being trained together. Good to know:)

Eh, think you might not have read my comment well enough, because actually I partially agree with you in that two models may not be the best way to train an LLM. Yeah, I did say "In AI, maybe two models should be developed and traine

Ah, I stand corrected:) Maybe a better diagram might be to merge our ideas: Fish Brain = brain stem + pallium + other parts of brain[1] | (evolved into) | V Human Brain = brain stem + gigantic cortex(which directly e

am no expert in brain development, still have read about evolution. I like aspects of the way you mentioned this, but seems that putting cortex separately from fish brain isn't quite right. As you mentioned, the cortex is simply a part

Interesting, but for me at least, this new research did not seem to promote the dispelled hypothesis about the reptile brain. Because the reptile brain hypothesis says a primitive reptile-brain evolved first (lower brain), then a separate p

Agreed. This isn't being oversold. And actually, the fact that the brain is actually two "developmental" systems combined into one seems like big news to me. We might not know its other uses, but probably for cognitive scienc

Like the thought:) But actually have read that the hypothesis that the hindbrain (or lower brain) had evolved directly from our lizard ancestors while the upper brain (which does more complex types of thought) evolved later turned out to be

Me and the friends of mine who didn’t vote for him feel the same way. What did the Trump supports expect when they voted for him? … although, even we didn’t expect him to be as unhinged and impulsive as he has been. It’s been crazy here.

Ah this is true too (seeing as I didn’t vote for him, it doesn’t bother me that he’s done the opposite of his campaign promises). But as for competent alternatives during last election, would think a young, vibrant, thoughtful Kamala Harris

Thanks, it’s been a real trial, but we can feel the momentum shifting - when Trump is truly let loose, he’s his own worst enemy. And agreed, hope our institutions hold up too:)

As an American, would say more than half our country actually agrees with you. Trumps approval rating has fallen to 39% while 58% disapprove. Yeah, a lot of us in the US are in just as much amazement as the rest of the world at the crazy an

Am no expert at French history, but this feels like cherry-picking to me of what happened to France. From what I read, one of the biggest reasons (besides the defeat at Waterloo) for the downfall of France to Britain was that in the 1700’s,

Actually, not sure how to take it, because it can be viewed the opposite way than trying to escape blame for crimes, that it’s a parody of something AI did that everyone is making a big deal about. Not sure what the poster of the mastodon’s

Thanks for the info on this. Hmmm, maybe Leqembi isn’t such a bad option. And, would be very surprised if none of the drugs in clinical trials panned out in the next five or six year. It seems like they’re on the verge of making a major br

Hi there. Actually, Leqembi is a 1st gen Alzheimer’s drugs and targets amyloid plaques. But, like other responses, amyloids doesn’t seem to be hugely responsible for Alzheimers, which is why targeting things like tau proteins is being explo

Agreed that that it’s an interesting question on how to detect Alzheimer’s and also how to treat. My Dad is starting to show signs of mild mental impairment (he’s 87) - more forgetful than usual, more confused than usual, not able to work h

This is what I was thinking too. Ports are probably where AI has the one of the biggest time savings over humans. Although also agree, that even if human's did it, they probably would try to automate as much as possible and speed up de
