A biased coin flip with accuracy on my domain is what I all care.

You are also forgetting the undersea cables.

When the pager attack happened, there was a implicity sentiment on focusing on the technical details and not focus on politics. But I didn't see the same sentiment when Iran ballistic missles did their job.

There is cantillon effect happening here with respect to trust in govts. media and institutions in general. People are becoming distrustful but slowly. Those who are on internet a lot know about these topics in depth but people farther away take time to adjust to New Reality.

The metaphor I use is we have lot of distinct ideas or topics. Consider them as gold nuggets. Then through these glue sentences we flatten these gold nuggets creating a big foil or fabric which are laid on top of each other and they intermingle. This allows us to remember the same main ideas across multiple scenarios. That's how our brain works most of the time. The stronger match is Hopfield-style associative memory

Jean-Claude Juncker line, from 2007 when he was Luxembourg's prime minister and head of the Eurogroup: "We all know what to do, we just don't know how to get re-elected once we have done it."

You are missing the point. Biology is a kludge over billions of years and evolution is a blind process. It had many constraints that are not necessary for modern machines or systems. e.g. a GPU doesn't have to reproduce. Why didn't you drop yourself to planck scale or string theory scale and say we need all that detail to actually get a functioning AI.

Is all that complexity necessary? Haven't we learnt that doing things in Latent space is effective as compared to Pixel space.

Garbage In Garbage Out

If you have a very intelligent swiss army knife like hammer, that hammer will adapt to almost any nail, which is a good thing.

One thing I have noticed is "It is very easy for the Empire to vassalize Muslim countries". Try to notice next time.

Demis Hassabis decided not to sell DeepMind to Facebook after testing Mark Zuckerberg at dinner and realizing Zuckerberg sounded "Equally Excited" about every tech trend brought up.

Most of the problems people commonly encounter is solved by someone somewhere sometime. Today I wanted to add a simple search bar in a UI over log files in a directory. LLM ("through their unique ability to make the glue code adapt to any problems") solved my problem. That's all I care for now. Let people like Terry Tao push the frontiers. I am happy in my circumstance.

We developed languages that removed GOTO so that developers don't shoot themselves in the foot. We will surely develop harnesses that will ensure that majorly occurring problems are solved before they hit production.

In thermodynamics, through cycles of expansion and compression, useful work can be extracted. Similarly through economic cycles, America is able to extract wealth from rest of globe.

Reservation in education institutions and government job which is used to solve caste system are just doing Eugenics in disguise. Only gene pool of rich lower caste people benefit.

The people who suffered are dead. The people who committed discrimination are dead. Yet the whole nation has to accomodate. Reservation must be done on Pro-Rata basis. If one state like Kerela is advanced, doesn't do caste discrimination and another like Bihar is very much into it. Then only Bihar state should reservation, not whole of India.

All possible subsets of a Universal Set can be considered as Observers. So a Power Set is collection of observers. Power Set of Power Set is another such collection. So on and so forth. Powersets all the way up.

If you read the article, one of the analogy points to this. Compressing everything to a point.

But I had the same question few months back. Asking Claude is fruitful in this case.

In future, we will see intiatives similar to OpenStreetMap for Textual data or Web similar to high quality non-contaminated steel.

How about explain the problem and solution in 3 to 5 levels of details in a top-down hierarchical manner sort of like a decision tree. Let people decide how far they want to drill down.

Keynes didn't want USD to be reserve currency but he was overruled.

What many people don't realize is why is America suddenly caring about manufacturing everything inhouse when Elites decided earlier Globalization was good, because China wants to command respect more than America. That is also the reason why Gold is pushing higher. If China was nobody, no nation would care for gold. So all these unnecessary downstream reasons distort what is actually going on.

If there was no China, Globalization would spread very strongly with Bangladesh manufacturing clothes and Milan doing the fashion show. All those calculations are coming undone. So please keep this main reason front and center when we discuss this matters.

you can ask Claude to see how much of your process is similar to scientific process.

"There are three ways to learn. The most noble is by thinking and getting to the truth yourself. The second, which is still pretty good, is by imitating those who do. And the third one is through pain."

In prediction markets, imitation is the best policy

What if I am using Claude as a rubber duck where Claude is the crowdsourced version of all the human thoughts on that topic. It is rerouting all the thoughts ever recorded on that topic through the chatbox to me. Something synergistic could emerge.

I remember vaguely a documentary where Germans were supposed to change their keys frequently but being lazy and confident didn't. Lol

The successive generations of spaceships won't built themselves. Who will be responsible for setting up real world and software feedback loop?
