All the more special for your work to be the whole history of a journal I guess. But it's a shame they couldn't continue, I would have loved to have something filling that niche.

This was a wondrous read. I had not expected that these things would be significant in real world context with free viewpoint. Have you looked at whether the perturbation tend to do something to other networks than it's optimized for?

Personally I have long considered Facebook a deceptive, manipulative, evil company and inherently an enemy to liberty and human dignity. But, that should be at least broadly clear to anyone who bothers to look at what Facebook does. Maybe

As far as I'm concerned this whole discussion is severely hampered by failing to differentiate between intelligence and agency. Almost all of the bugaboo about runaway superhuman organisms comes down not to machines learning and reason

It's hardly clear from this particular blog post but if you look at what's been reported in newspapers almost all the trunks had been sawed in. As for why, who knows, but my guess is we're looking at a physical world manifest
