Earthquake in SLC area? What was that? (Very minor here)

@gavin_kickstart Happy Birthday!

@elonmusk Heat shield: it may come at a weight cost, but is there any reason why dragon scales or shingles configurations wouldn’t work better for the expansion and movement?

@dickiebush Aside from scriptures, I’d choose How Will You Measure Your Life by Clayton Christensen. It’s a great book to put things like career and family in perspective.

@girdley I heated my basement with a miner for a while. Quickly, it became cheaper to heat my basement and buy the coins with cash. Though I too ended up losing on that investment, the learnings helped me feel confident in investing earlier than most which has been a good call so far.

[Brant Avondet @BAvondet]

At some point, we’ll reach a point where an AI model only gets better with re-generation using additional data generated from previous generations - where questions asked get better answers, deeper thought, further answers to provide enhancement to the model.

[Brant Avondet @BAvondet]

these models will not decay or will be able to adapt for synthetic data to not converge on incorrect responses? Once we reach a tipping point of X re-generations of the model, we could classify the model as intelligent?

[Brant Avondet @BAvondet]

Could we create a benchmark of intelligence of future generations of AI that evaluates how many generations of a model being trained on it’s own synthetic data (recursion) results in model collapse? Is it possible that once AI’s generate a larger percentage of original thought,

[Brant Avondet @BAvondet]

For AI models, and it seems to apply to most all model types, studies have shown model decay as a result of synthetic data and recursion. I’m sure it’s not original thinking, but can you direct me to research or papers postulating the following:

@Techstars Nice doctors get sued less.

Best thread on remote work trends I’ve seen in a good while!
