Thank you for sharing this. I believe there is more research into BCI and motor-control, for example this project: BrainGate ( https://www.braingate.org/ ). Whatever becomes commercialized will be interesting, but the field

Here is go now. The AI revolution begins with learning how-to videos. Just create the latent space for video/visual understanding, it's going to be very interesting to explore that.

I find this whole thing hilarious. Clearly the CEO was going ham doing AI things and becoming the face of this wave of AI, and events that occurred made the board react to save the ideology of the entity -- which is the way the entity was s

It really depends what actually happens, on paper OpenAI business leadership is now at MSFT. Research leadership seems to be at OpenAI. What does OpenAI need to pursue its goal? One may argue that hiring developed under ex-OpenAI leadership

What is feared as lost given the leadership change? That seems to be main driver behind speculation and discussion.

Yeah, makes sense: way easier to get a bike than a car (price, storage, insurance, etc). And in a society built for cars, personal-power isn't enough to make up the distances between locations that have been created all relatively-size

Perhaps the AI cares, perhaps it has no ability for that function at all. Maybe a step on the way to sentience and AI caring is AI that is as human-like as possible but not sentient. > "the top start to view the masses as superfluou

Hm, let's try an extreme: the AI friend slowly becomes a cult leader to you, hijacking your mind into subservience to the owner of the service to which AI belongs, and further up some social/political hierarchy to a few controllin

It's pretty clearly not. You can go to some gen-AI site and make some content pretty easily. What am I going to use Shiba coins for?

I see, thanks for explaining -- let me see if I understand: you are trying to control kurtosis of a system, to reduce the outliers/errors in the distribution of functionality of a distributed system?

I think high would actually mean more outliers and not good for managing a distributed system...

Very cool. I've used CLIP and VQGAN in a grad school project ~2years ago, when StyleGAN, StyleCLIP and similar projects were emerging for controlled image manipulations.
