Hi, I’m Eric and I work at a big chip company making chips and such! I do math for a job, but it’s cold hard stochastic optimization that makes people who know names like Tychonoff and Sylow weep.
My pfp is Hank Azaria in Heat, but you already knew that.
e/acc bros in tatters today as Ol’ Musky comes out in support of SB 1047.
Meanwhile, our very good friends line up to praise Musk’s character. After all, what’s the harm in trying to subvert a lil democracy/push white replacement narratives/actively harm lgbt peeps if your goal is to save 420^69 future lives?
Some rando points out the obvious tho… man who fled California due ‘to regulation’ (and ofc the woke mind virus) wants legislation enacted where his competitors are instead of the beautiful lone star state 🤠 🤠 🤠 🤠 🤠
Wishful thinking on my part to think their sexism/eugenics posting was based on ignorance instead of deliberately being massive piles of shit. Don’t let them know Iceland has the highest number of GMs/pop or else we’ll get a 10,000 page essay about how proximity to volcanoes gives + 20 IQ points.
Reasoning There is not a well known way to achieve system 2 thinking, but I am quite confident that it is possible within the transformer paradigm with the technology and compute we have available to us right now. I estimate that we are 2-3 years away from building a mechanism for system 2 thinking which is sufficiently good for the cycle I described above.
Wow, what are the odds! The exact same transformer paradigm that OAI co-opted from Google is also the key to solving ‘system 2’ reasoning, meta cognition, recursive self improvement, and the symbol grounding problem! All they need is a couple trillion more dollars of VC Invesment, a couple of goat sacrifices here and there, and AGI will just fall out. They definitely aren’t tossing cash into a bottomless money pit chasing a dead-end architecture!
… right?
Holy fuck David, you really are living rent free in this SOB’s head.
my honest reacton:
Edit: Judit Polgár for ref if anyone wants to learn about one of the greatest of all times. Her dad claimed he was doing a nature/nurture experiment in order to prove that anyone could be great if they were trained to master a skill from a young age, so taught his 3 daughters chess. Judit achieved the rank of number 8 in the world OVERALL and beat multiple WC including Kasparov over her career.
idk its almost like if more girls were encouraged to play chess and felt welcome in the community these apparent skill differences might disappear
This is literally the dumbest shit I’ve read all week and it’s been a pretty dumb week. I’m afraid I have to diagnose Roko with having the brain scamblies. There is no cure.
Smh, why do I feel like I understand the theology of their dumb cult better than its own adherents? If you believe that one day AI will foom into a 10 trillion IQ super being, then it makes no difference at all whether your ai safety researcher has 200 IQ or spends their days eating rocks like the average LW user.
Yann and co. just dropped llama 3.1. Now there’s an open source model on par with OAI and Anthropic, so who the hell is going to pay these nutjobs for access to their apis when people can get roughly the same quality for free without the risk of having to give your data to a 3rd party?
These chuckle fucks are cooked.
How many rounds of training does it take before AlphaGo realizes the optimal strategy is to simply eat its opponent?
