I was hoping this would be about a new way to augur the events of the day from my morning toast to ensemble with the tea leaves at the bottom of my morning cuppa, alas ...

Thank you for this. Knowing both those words, i could never work out the original/history of the terms.

I agree with you on the markets but not on institutions and organisations. Organisations pursue goals with agency and there is even Darwinian competition between them in many cases.

I kinda agree that the financial system is intelligent in the problem solving sense but disagree that it is pursuing a particular goal in the sense that institutions and organisations are. It's more akin to an ecosystem to me. In natur

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping to get some debate going and have my thoughts challenged in order to see how they hold up under scrutiny. You're right that I believe in Functionalism and Strong AI and in previous comment I only real

Cool, will check it out. Yeah, wasn't claiming that it was particularly novel or divine insight, otherwise I might have tried to publish a paper about it. I was just recounting my experience on this matter.

Really? I'd love to read some write ups on this because I'm still doing it the old way. I was going to say that corporate experience runs counter to this but maybe not; you think the architect is more important than the developer,

Very true! Also the accountability problem! Sometimes we try to hold the corporation accountable and sometimes the individuals. It never seems adequate though. I found the documentary "The Corporation" (2003) very instructive in t

Agreed. Michael Levin's work and discoveries are mind blowing! I was actually referencing that with the "electrical signals" nod (as well as neuronal activity) and Alan Turing's reaction-diffusion theory of morphogenesis

A related point that I've been making privately for at least ten years to anyone that would listen, is that we've had Superhuman Intelligence for at least hundreds, if not thousands, of years in the form of corporations and instit

Looks good , but I don't understand the licensing. The bottom of the read me says it's Apache 2.0, except for the /ee folder, but I don't see the /ee folder in the repo, at least not at the top-level. I also don&#x2

I love both of those and actually only started playing Mini Metro this month. Such synchronicity(!), although mediated by whatever is probably happening on the Play Store, this is less surprising then it would have been 50 years ago.

What is the best way to deploy these on CPUs, arm64 ones in particular? I'm interested in the CPU inference application of these models with things like the FairyFuse kernels. I've tried trillim previously but was disappointed tha

Thanks. This relates to some questions I've got. I was playing around with the previous generation smaller models and found that i wasn't getting any speedups from the T1 and T2 binary/ternary models compared to standard Q4 q

LinkedIn content that hasn't been written by AI might as well have been. There's a reason i read HN and not LI.

I was wondering what a book keeper is, thinking it would be some kind of librarian. Isn't the accounting sense written as a single word, i.e. bookkeeper?

OT but how are y'all sharing your skills and agents across harnesses? I have a bunch of Claude Code Plugins and yesterday asked Codex to make them accessible to itself. It wanted to rewrite most of it. I was hoping i could get by with

Not just RLHF but also RLVR, and isn't that the litter lesson though? My sense of the Sutton Dwarkesh interview was that he was calling out that he didn't mean just longer datasets, but rather learning through exploration and that
