I'm working on a continuous chain-of-thought reasoning architecture for generative AI models. It is similar to Meta's COCONUT. However, instead of the training forward and backwards passes of the reasoning tokens being done serial

Humans are a lot dumber than you think too. They are self-replicating machines, not logical deduction engines. It says so right in the name. Expecting logic or reason or decision making is a gross mis-application.

It's interesting that the model generalizes to unseen participants. I was under the impression that everyone's brain patterns were different enough that the model would need to be retrained for new users. Though, I suppose if the

The next step (and I am not claiming it's the right one) is probably "Generative UI" where the model creates website-like interfaces on the fly. Google seems to be making good progress [1] and it seems like only a matter of t

Google is already doing this with Gemini: https://research.google/blog/generative-ui-a-rich-custom-vis... I don't know if/when it will actually be in consumers hands, but the tech is there.

It is naive to think that their end-goal is to make models that play computer games. The reason they build models like this is because playing 3D computer games is the closest digital proxy for operating a robot or similar in the real world

The ideas are very interesting, but the paper is lacking in details (especially given that they defer several times to an appendix which is not present in their pdf). I don't think this could be reproduced very closely given what they

Considering that OpenAI's model got a higher score than any of the world's best collegiate programming teams, I'd guess that a mechanical turk would not do better (even if you gave them quite a bit of time).

The point is that up until now, humans were the best at these competitions, just like horses were the best at racing up until cars came around. The other commenter is pointing out how ridiculous it would be for someone to downplay the perfo
