We are seeing increasing evidence that these sort of video world models are terrible options for useful rollouts of the physical dynamics of the environment. It is hypothesized that you can get them to be better than simulators by training

I had a lot of fun playing this! It's definitely the quirkiness that sets it apart from the typical "GenAI" content. Highly recommend other hackernews readers check it out.

Sure A* is awesome, but taking the "star" and immediately attributing it to A* is probably a bridge too far. Q* or any X* for that matter is extremely common for referring to the optimal function under certain assumptions. (usuall

I really have to plug the method of Comprehensible Input (CI) [0]. Specifically, Pablo Román's effort to make this viable for Spanish [1]. I started before there was a website or anything, just watching free youtube videos. Now I'

For what it's worth, this was a paper I was exposed to during grad school for robotics/CS. I'm not saying one has to go to school to get good curation of content, but it is certainly one way to be exposed to a well structured

I am approaching 3 years with Obsidian! What I have found works best is to basically forget about putting strong priors on the structure of your notes. Just let everything be flat - or at most, create one level of hierarchy for a specific p

You're right about AI capabilities being much better in the "ungrounded" realm (like writing sonnets), but I would revise the statement a little to be more accurate. AI systems are quite good at perception in a traditional se

I also love it and am interested in hearing more about how you approach syndication!

In my opinion, this is the crux. Think about it for a moment. Can you define human intelligence? Have you ever gotten in a debate with someone about this? Is there a commonly accepted way to designate intelligence that isn't somewhat c

This hits me hard. Somehow, this has a perfect selection of games that formed a great portion of my childhood (some of which I was too young to play myself, but I watched my cousin or dad play). Amazing to teleport into these worlds through

Out of curiosity, which mailing lists did you check? I am wondering what others consider the 'standards'. Thanks!
