That our current ocean chemistry is shaped by life and Europa's chemistry is similar could be a datum for a Europaean biology. Urey & Miller terrestrial biogenesis happened during the Hadean / Archean transition and their pre-

Nice summary of NEAT. Given Neuro Evolution evolves efficient structure, this suggests training NEAT on a dataset produced by pre-trained deep networks could distill highly optimised functions. Evolving specialised components like LSTM is a

A Hinton inspired speculation about a Robot that plans & communicates. I posit that general A.I. must be embodied to develop, it must learn from the real world by interacting with it and learn by trial and error. Deep learning is a huge

That sounds worth a go, although Shannon's system was analogue rather than digital which might have made a difference to the point where signal is unrecoverable from noise. Then there is the noise from the transatlantic cable.

Yes you are correct, I was wrong, I had confused the term with Anarcho-syndicalism, thanks for putting me on the right track.

The Transoceanic crypto system Shannon created so Churchill & Roosevelt could conference call was brilliant. It was a sonic one-time pad, L.P.s were sent to Britain and America. They were played over the conversation, simply adding nois

In terms of (Artificial) Neural Networks it implies their internal representation is functional not merely symbolic. Soumith has shown this applies to visual modalities and smile vectors or wearing sunglasses vectors are similarly present[1

Interesting to compare this semantic map with the semantic maps that Mikolov's Word2vec processes produce and Word2vec's resultant semantic vector math (King - Man + Woman ~= Queen). Perhaps Hinton's Vectors of Thought do hav
