There are mathematical certainties. In this instance we have that all exponentially growing bubbles will necessarily display the property that values grow and at an increasing rate just before the bubble bursts. This is so fundamental tha

I said that high valuation or valuations rising at an increasing rate is common to bubbles. This clearly refers back to the comment about the current high and rising valuations for AGI prospects.

I mean that as valuations rise before a bubble bursts, the curve provides that successive values grow, sometimes at an increasing rate. The greatest values, and change in values comes just before the bubble bursts. The point being that hi

To share my experience, 25 years ago I looked into AI and had inclinations to see what scaling compute would do. It took no time to find advisors who told me the whole program I had in mind could not gain ethics approval and was mathematic

Oddly, in a bubble the highest valuations come just before the burst. This is obvious mathematical certainty that can be read by anyone viewing an exponential growth curve.

The central theme is very hard to disgree with; claims of productivity increase being self-reported are oftem misleading. The way forward is math and meaningful measurement, this bears repeating. I find that getting from zero to 80-90% fun

This study says that when you tell young people underage drinking is illegal then underage people report their drinking less.

Right, because age verification has totally put a stop to underage drinking and drug use. Q: If I am a teenager wanting to access content that is prohibited by age verification, who is mostly likely the party that will provide access? A: Th

Intelligence as a byproduct of pitched battle? A spatio-temporal convergence scheme? Really, is that novel?

Intelligence itself may be a virus, literally. The chemical activity in your brain is not that unlike viral activity. The reason humans can do math may be that some kind of salamander-like creature millions of years ago contracted a brain

Skepticism is best expressed by repeating the experiment and comparing results. I'm game and I have 10 days off work next month. I wonder what can be had in terms of full source and data, etc. from the authors?

Not sure if others mentioned this but one can abstract away the configuration and sys-admin type tasks using a declarative language. Then the setup can be recreated effortlessly by others, reviewed and verified on an ongoing basis. If the

This would not be a problem because human hands are limited, their output is bounded.

This seems like a good example of a more general issue; when you have a machine that produces bullshit mixed with gem-like phraseology, at a pace that we cannot possibly match as humans, we may be faced with intellectual denial of service

Nobody will do this, there are only so many questions that can be asked. Generally, a test like this will ask you to derive some result then to expand on it in several ways. I concur with other posters that the important part is how you se

As a graduate student I was actually given tests that more closely resembled the second scenario the auther described. Difficult problems in GR, a whole weekend to work on them, no limits as to who or what references I consulted. This soun

I think the difference between you and I is that I am trained to adopt whatever ontology I must in order to understand the subtlety and nuance of various physical theories, without experiencing existential angst or cognitive dissonance. My

In your parlance, in order for there to be "no contradiction or embellishment" between your "Truth" and your "truth" there must be an isomorphic mapping between what entities you deem exist and the symbols you

You come at this from and interesting psychology angle, so I can't tell if you agree, disagree, or something in between. I think Einstein and GR is a perfect example. He simply did what had previously been unthinkable by making time a
