Genetic Programming and the wider field of Evolutionary Computation and Genetic Algorithms are really good at some kinds of optimization. If the problem fits into a tree form, then Genetic Programming programming is your best friend. If the

Completely agree. +1. Very well written. Felt like a Black Mirror episode. At times my career over the decades has felt like this.

This is very good attempt with people playing musical instruments. But, there are some subtle timing tells, that this is AI generated. Take a look at the singer playing the piano. Timing of the hands with the singer is slightly off. The

This is a very cool project! I wish this was around when I was teaching computer architecture. I use to challenge students to think outside the box when it came to switchs. One example is to build a computer out of paperclips.[1] The book c

Dr. Horstmann was my advisor in college, San Jose State. I just loved his lectures, very dry sense of humor, and extremely funny. He was just getting started writing books in the early 90s. He has this awesome way of thinking about program

Was the original LLM ever trained on original material like this? Pretty cool use of genetic algorithm! Would love to see the code or at least the reward function.

Some other multi machine options that have worked well for me, well beyond just compilation of C/C++ on multiple machines, with multiple gpu(s) and cores. 1) set up passwordless, ssh. and 2) use the gnu parallel. https://www

I still partially disagree with the "must have people" the subject. There is a whole branch of nature photography that is for scientific purposes. Many of these are stunningly beautiful. As an example take a look at the work done

Yes, "The Cuckoo's Egg", also left a big impression on me, for my 20ish year old self. It was one of the books that lead me to get a Ph.D. and pursue math and computer science. Thanks!
