If you thought we were already living in crazy times, you should reconsider: Former OpenAI founder Naomi Bashkansky is now building Thought-to-text, aka telepathy.
How to achieve Thought-to-text? Simple: More compute:
"To train models that can predict text given brain signals, we must apply the same lesson learned by those predicting text given speech audio, or text given preceding text: the bitter lesson.
The lesson roughly states that you should throw more useful compute at your model, and your model will become better than any ingenious algorithm you could've hand-crafted. That means we must scale up our data collection by orders of magnitude beyond what has ever been done in academia."
Things will get very weird.
Today’s LMS outage was embarrassing.
Not because outages never happen.
But because it exposed how unprepared many schools are when their main learning platform goes down.
Excited to launch Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro with our next generation Google Tensor G2 chip, which brings state-of-the-art #GoogleAI directly to the phone. And introducing our first Google Pixel Watch, with health and fitness insights from Fitbit.

A first-place award to an AI-wielding artist at the Colorado State Fair has created yet another firestorm of debate over the use of image synthesis in art—and whether AI art is art at all. https://t.co/Sb1cWPhTU5
