*do not try this at home
Research like this gives me hope for people like my severely autistic son who has been missing development milestone after development milestone so a fear of mine is that he might eventually have to live in a group home once he’s strong enough to overpower us. If a treatment like this can manage symptoms enough to allow him to live independently that would be literally life changing
It’s for gut issues like crohns not anything to do with emotional regulation or communication.
Group homes are as good as their staff, interview everyone there. Visit him often. Living independently is not always for the best.
and made you eat it, as a cure
Once again, the science piles up behind my “we’re just LLMs running on the mecha suit controlled by bacteria” theory
Well neural networks (the construct LLMs use) is modelled on how neurons process information. Just in incredibly simplified form.
And I’m pretty sure most scientists agree that humans are actually a colony of many different species given how we rely on bacteria to live.
Oh, the metaphor goes further. We’re not the pilot of the suit, we’re not the hardware, we’re not the OS of the suit, we’re the AI assistant
We speak for it with the other AIs, we get called up to handle things we don’t have learned behaviors for, we analyze and provide feedback - we give advice and it feels like we’re making decisions, but we’re not
We are literally 10 times more bacteria than human cells in the human body.
What does a reduction in Autism “symptoms” even mean - We uninstall Arch?
