Thank you to Prof. Christoph Adami
@ChristophAdami for the interesting talk yesterday and to all of you earthlings who attended the event thirsty for science AND cocktails. Next event is on May 13. https://t.co/QbSXVCICg6 #science #event #cocktails #music

@ClausWilke @REasther @TravisVarga This can actually be verified experimentally, but you have to be sneaky to detect the lies. There is a paper in the works.

I will be closing my account here. Come find me over where the sky is blue, where all the cool kids are anyway.

@erikphoel Come on over to Bsky. We’re all there now.

New blog post about how you can test theories of attention with artificial brain models. Think your brain can't easily be fooled? Think again! https://t.co/mGQ7mScYoq

Thanks to @ChristophAdami for signing my copy of his classic book on Artificial Life! Great to have him here exploring collaborations at Cedars-Sinai.

Taleb. Incidentally, I reviewed one of his papers recently. What a moron.

A propos of nothing: there are no negative probabilities in quantum mechanics.

Wonderful paper from @ChristophAdami: Emergence of functional information from multivariate correlations https://t.co/mQd6P9fpZx #entropy #datascience #informationtheory

I just sold all my Tesla stock. I've been a big supporter of the company and technology for many years, but the risk presented by a CEO who has lost his mind is just too great.

Thanks Vince for an insightful review of my book!

[Vince Buffalo @vsbuffalo]

I've always liked informational views of evolution, so when @arvidagren asked if I'd review @ChristophAdami's new book, I was delighted.

It's a great book, and I discuss connections to Maynard Smith and Lewontin's ideas, measurement, Fisher's fundamental theorem, and more.

@cgseife That our first paper about the capacity only appeared ten years after we posted it to arXiv tells you something about the state of the field. It seemed then (and now) that no one really wanted this problem to be solved. @philipcball https://t.co/UwN4CVWHDu

20 years after writing about the black hole channel capacity for the first time, here is a review paper covering all that we now know about the black hole information problem. Namely that it isn't a problem at all. Link is to a free version of the paper. https://t.co/izFUWNHhrF

In 2004, Hawking was about to give a talk at a conference in Dublin, and we were scared that he would scoop us. Our paper appeared on arXiv two weeks later, but Hawking's solution wasn't one. Charles Seife @cgseife wrote about this in Science Magazine https://t.co/sTC0Tx2ez1

@moorejh I’m all of these ?

[Chris Adami @ChristophAdami]

Indeed. With the historically documented reluctance by the committee to hand out the prize for a theory, and always preferring the experiment that validated the theory, this one really stands out as blatant misogyny.
