Looks like the Nobel wants to fast track its march towards irrelevancy. What a joke. I see a lot of people saying "physics has stalled" etc., which is not the case. It may be the case for high energy physics (I would not even make

I'm sure it's less popular, but I heard you can google pirate bay proxies and get on there in 2 minutes. Not that I would ever do such an immoral and illegal thing, depriving publishers of their hard-earned dollars! But from what

I have to admit that I hate them and view them as abominations. But that's just my personal opinion.

Yeah, the chatbot's big draw for me is sidestepping the SEO wasteland.

Yeah it's totally fine. No uncomfortable thoughts bubbling below the surface here.

The Stern-Gerlach experiment is imo the best way to learn the basic idea of quantum mechanics as derived from a reasonably simple experiment. Much better than the double-slit experiment which is more confusing and about which there is a lot

It's (presumably) legitimate research, but it's a long way from market. It's basically a hype article.

The reporting is functioning as intended, don't worry.

I'm only talking about myself, since I'm talking about what I can't deny rationally, i.e. the fact of my own conscious experience. I can't speak for schizophrenics. I don't think you need a definition for your self

by zeofig 2y ago
I don't identify my "self" (or consciousness) with memories or anything the supposed LLM in my brain might babble about. If you took those things away, I'd still be here. Rationally speaking, self is the only thing that

AGI singularity is science fiction and, while interesting, none of that research comes close to biological immortality in humans. Don't deceive yourself.

If that seems implausible you might want to replause your seemometer. A nuclear plant has much higher energy density than any battery.

Sure, so would tiny little mechanical elves that go into your blood and scoop up all the nasties. Maybe AI could design some for us!

>Law was unjust, they had a moral imperative to break it. I disagree that they had a moral imperative to break it. But our laws must be quite bad because foreign companies seem to love breaking them while claiming the moral highground. &

They broke the law. Furthermore Uber's competitive advantages are fueled by incredibly dangerous financial practices. In the kind of "any other scenario" you're alluding to, the new kid on the block typically isn't

If physics allows it... a considerable assumption. In my view physics (or mathematics, or whatever) doesn't even allow an LLM to "reason", let alone manufacture novel bioweapons. The probability of Jesus returning is consider

On the contrary... way too many people see "AI can do X", "AI can do Y", "I can draw an imaginary line between X, Y and Z", "therefore AI can totally maybe do Z". The fact that we "just don'

Am I still allowed to be skeptical?

I also found that extremely weird. I'm a scientist, or at least I got a STEM PhD before I quit, and I often think about how indeed correlation does not imply causation, and how a lot of science (or the media reporting thereof) seems to

It is, in my opinion, still "electrons". More pedantically, the electron field is still the mechanism for nonzero current, regardless of its exotic state. This must be the case as there's no other stable charge-carrying field
