What's almost certainly true is the amount of insanity he encountered at Anthropic.

They do speak of the gravitational singularity (not the event horizon). It's within the horizon, there is a contradiction between the need for two infallers' position to reach the singularity (thus hitting a point) and the causal

The first 1 star comment on the "YEREADW USB-C Tester Power Meter" marketed here is worrisome: > HOWEVER, the issue is that, for some reason, on some devices, it seems to mess with PD negotiation. On chargers that I know can ou

Say you've got a set of 5 points that are not all collinear (e.g. everytime you draw a line, you never get all 5 of them). Now every time you try to draw a line between two points, you always end up with a third one. Can this happen? T

Not necessarily. Selling a tool doesn't incur the same risks as using it, not at all.

I understand the point that the physical world is still our (human's) anchor, but the virtual world still "exists" anyway, as in: it impacts the physical world. Whether some humans are "Real humans", anchored in the

I don't think that GA would be incapable of that, from what I know of LLMs and agents. The part where you make the GA uphold your set of values could, instead of coming from an individual, come from a collective. Price could be shared

One of the example Gwern brings [1] is a GA as an agent for public discourse and political life, to bring your "set of values" to have an effect in solving society's issues, when you yourself don't have the time or energ

Even if pi is an approximation, it is still representable mathematically. Floating-point arithmetic is an algebra (in this case, a magma [1]), which can be studied mathematically. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma

And what the author goes and shows are equalities, not tautologies.

If you hold the eraser for a second at the center, I find that it destroys the image more often than not.

The ratio of AI startups at YC surprised me... (slide 48). This is a clear trend.

Asymptotics has been used to validate tons of statistical tools. This is just another tool being validated. If you have a tool that you don't know works when data increases (n-> infinity), then you shouldn't use it. So practica

I don't think that this is true. You need an infinite number of dimensions for this (think Taylor's expansion, Fourier expansion, infinitely wide or deep NNs..)

As someone who worked with Nadaraya-Watson regression in the pass, the result that infinitely wide NNs converges to kernel regression baffles me.

The half-life idea is interesting. What's the loop behind consolidation? Random sampling and LLM to merge?

Bayesian network is a really general concept. It applies to all multidimensional probability distribution. It's a graph that encodes independence between variables. Ish. I have not taken the time to review the paper, but if the claim
