Johnson-Lindenstrauss is an example of a probabilistic existence argument: the probability of a random projection having low error is nonzero, therefore a low-error projection must exist. That doesn't mean any given random projection c

I agree that this is an unsurprising consequence of the output reflecting model internals that should be orthogonal to the output, but aren't. In particular, current models compress information into fairly low-dimensional vectors, with

If I'm generous, that "database" stores a single number. If you transform a more realistic database (one that can store many arbitrary values) into a Boolean circuit, you'll generally end up with at least one operation p

In the case of searching Google, E(x) is the encrypted query and y is Google's database. Can you compute E(x + y) without doing at least as much work as computing E(y)? I don't think so. Instead, you use public key cryptography so
