Voice recognition, text translation, OCR, image compression? "Analysing stats about data" alone is something that can be applied to everything from antiviruses to climate models.

I have no clue what "actively engaged" data actually means, since the author doesn't provide any links to the studies asserting its superiority. GPT-3 was trained on 45TB of text, little of which was written with AI training

This is one of those weird articles where the author's intent becomes clearer the moment you replace "AI" with "capitalism". Anthropomorphizing technology goes well beyond AI and has been a thing pretty much ever si

I've always found this argument weird because you're basically telling the environment-conscious people to voluntarily eliminate themselves from the gene pool. Surely there must be more effective ways for a small minority of the p

Or it could just be that there was never a lot of evolutionary pressure for the "stay fit while old" traits. Being healthy for long enough to reproduce and provide some care for your progeny was usually good enough from the evolut

I haven't read the paper itself, but the article makes it sound like they simply counted the minimum number of bits required to represent the English language. It mentions no neuroscience-specific insights, so the "brain" p
