Article says it’s about stack addresses but I think it should apply more generally to dynamically allocated memory as well.

Here is his 1984 article published in PRL in which he highlights that cellular automata can be realized as physical systems and therefore computational intractabilities will manifest in models of physics. https://content.wolfram.

Here is a free updated version from 2022. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1502.04573 Edit: Alright, I'm back after skimming the paper. This is a halting oracle. Here is what I understand, with my limited knowledge of QM.

Regarding faulty intermediate versions, I think that’s the point. The diffusion process can correct wrong tokens with the global state implies it.

I wonder why the Kinect is still so popular given the many more recent projects that have come to market, eg Realsense, Zed, Orbec. I’ve recently been using the Realsense for robotics and they are satisfactory (although they have been drast

It's a little hard to understand your criticism. From just reading the original article, I had assumed that Claude could decompile binaries. The author said > Understand dear reader that this technique can be done on any programming

That's true in the realm of LLMs. But even in this case, the position information is added only into the first layer. Tokens in later layers can choose to "forget" this information. In addition there are applications of trans

I was careless in my thinking, thanks for the correction. I was imagining since you sum the group elements in any order, there is a permutation invariance. But the group elements themselves play the role of the "token index" and g

The Fourier transform is taken along the “token” dimension. However, in many applications, this dimension is not meaningful. That’s why transformers are a great option for consuming data which is permutation invariant. I would like to see a

The interesting thing about this project is that it shouldn’t even be possible if the chip behaved as an abstract logical circuit since then it would simply implement a finite automation. You must abuse the underlying physics to make the lo

This is basically Gaussian splat using cubes instead of Gaussians. The cube centers and sizes choices are discrete and non overlapping, hence the name “sparse voxel”. The qualitative results and rendering speeds are similar to Gaussian spla

It’s interesting that the conjecture was proven via case by case analysis, with each case demanding different techniques. It’s almost a coincidence that all finite groups have this property, since each group has the property because of a di

I like the glorified mitosis analogy. And psychology is glorified particle physics. It’s kind of true, but you just know there is something else going on there that might explain it better.

RQM is an interesting viewpoint on QM that I have not encountered before, even though it was apparently introduced in 1996. It says that the physical world is a collection of discrete events, doing away with continuous time. It also says th
