That is a descriptive surface level reduction. Now do the work to define what that actually means for the intelligence.

I think you can look at it dispassionately from a systems perspective. There is not /really/ a quantifiable threshold for capital I Intelligence. But there is a pretty well agreed set of properties for biological intelligence. As

That is a good area to explore. Their map of the past is fixed. They are frozen at some point in their psychological time. What has stopped working? Their hippocampus and medial temporal lobe. These are like the write-head that move data fr

You aren't wrong and that is a fascinating area of research. I think the key thing is that the memory has to fundamentally influence the underlying model, or at least the response, in some way. Patching memory on top of an LLM is diffe

Their consolidation of memory speed is what I was referring to. The model iterations are essentially their form of collective memory. In the sense of the human model of intelligence we have thoughts. Thoughts become memory. New thoughts use

I think the author very purposefully had no judgment or implications associated there. I think that is the reader's interpretation. The author was purposefully creating a division between AI and Non AI and showing what those two are li

This is the most fundamental argument that they are not, directly, an intelligence. They are not ever storing new information on a meaningful timescale. However, if you viewed them on some really large macro time scale where now LLMs are in

When someone so clearly misses an article written tongue in cheek and uses personal insults to let us know they missed the point, one begins to wonder. Apes code together. Apes stronger together. Return to monke.

These are all value judgements that reflect your disillusionment rather than some universal truth. No one is attached to some mythical objective reality. Everyone is imprisoned by the same social, economic and thought prisons.

The injury to their ego is tremendous. The ones that allow their authority to become their identity cannot mentally separate a challenge to this authority from a direct attack on themselves. To them it is quite literally the same thing and

I put the terms in quotes because it can be as simple as a set of prompts you develop for various contexts. It really doesn't have to be too heavy of an idea.

That is pretty funny. But you probably learned something in implementing it! This is such a new field, I think small projects like this are really worthwhile :)

I can tell you how I am seeing agents be used with reasonable results. I will keep this high level. I don't rely on the agents solely. You build agents that augment your capabilities. They can make diagrams for you, give you an attack

Who is going to tell them about lathes? They are much more practical for machining useful firearms. Good luck with all of that, I guess, California.

If you want to beat doom scrolling, put your phone down? Directed learning towards some goal is always going to be useful. These replacements for doom scrolling are addressing a surface level issue. Just change your habit to be spaced repet

It is salient to point out the individual almost certainly had incriminating evidence on that system. There aren't really any cases of a person being /randomly/ detained and held in contempt. Especially not a fishing expediti

It took 4 years. What is your point?

That case also established 18 months as an upper limit. If you are in that situation it is usually better to simply jot divulge. Especially if there is incriminating evidence. Or you are a journalist being harassed by the DOJ. It can only b

I am not. You can still assert your rights at border points. It is very inconvenient. I have done it. If you are returning from international travel there is little they can do. If you are trying to leave the country they can make that diff

The case law on this specific topic is convincing. If you are ever in that situation it is usually going to be worth your time and money to assert the right and see it through. Case law supports this. The general maximum “penalty” is being

You do not. We have this thing in our constitution called the 5th amendment. You cannot be forced to divulge the contents of your mind, including your pin or passwords. Case law supports this. For US citizens at least. Hopefully the constit

Rust is a general purpose systems programming language. There are very few situations where you cannot attain C like performance with Rust. Skill issue, most likely.

There are endless systems, tools, and strategies. Carefully consider your environment. I perform best with very little going on around me. In my physical environment and on my PC. Austere. Minimize things that catch your brain and eye. One

But that misses too much of the semantics. It also implies ownership transfer, even if copied.

I met my wife on IRC in the late 90s, but meeting on a MUD is a level above that and I bow to grandparent.

My first MUD I ran was there on mudservices! I learned C and become a programmer because of MUDs. MUDs and my obsession with building them in high school took me on a very long and statistically improbable journey of success in my career an
