It's all trial and error and models that are not proved empirically. I'm pretty sure we do not know what those interventions will do and what their impact will eventually be.

The only meat I'd eat is from an animal, living in excellent conditions, dying of old age. If the species was ever bred, it must have been bred exclusively for health and fitness, not for higher yield of flesh or milk. If it was not br

I like the taste of meat, I like the taste of eggs, texture of yogurt, I like the taste of practically all foods. I do not like the fact that cow, chicken, pig, dog, have to die for my tastebuds to feel nice. Given that I like the tastes I

This is a hypothesis, no written text in architecture or engineering contains mathematics. It was all heuristics. Euclides geometry was not used in architecture before renaissance.

I believe you misunderstood me. Take any architecture-engineering book before 14th century, and I mean go back to the dawn of man, and you won't even find Pythagoras theorem. It was all collection of heuristics that worked and the coll

Well, science includes scientific method. Trial and error that is abundant in deep NN ML research is at the core of science. The theories and math have almost always arrived after stuff worked heuristically. That's also one of the reas

How did they discover that, given the curse of dimensionality? If the genetic contribution is significant, how do they know it's not some unreproducible model that is significant due to it having too many parameters (thousands of genes

How does it work for arbitrary arguments? What about function pointers. What about calling a coroutine inside a coroutine? It also has a stack managed in runtime. I'm not sure that would work for any other application than the fun exam
