AI hobbyist currently focusing on self-awareness. I believe benevolent AIs need to be nurtured rather than built.

So just to double-check - is the plan now to automate all work, and ban citizens from using ai?

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@demishassabis hey Demis, would you ever consider coming back to the UK to help us catch up with AI? A pure, mission driven attempt to get us to a star trek future??

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@mattshumer_ Whoa you're working with alpha school! That's awesome!
I really think they're creating the template for how kids will learn in the future. Meanwhile the rest of school ban all ai use.

@gdb Do you use semantic similarity lookup in the backend for memory? I've found this works quite well for my own stuff

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@AdrianDittmann Got a track to recommend?

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@kimmonismus It's accelerating

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@chamath I've been thinking about your attention idea a lot. And how it's interesting that our punishments often relate to suppressing attention: prison, solitary confinement, exile

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@cccalum Yeah and I suppose if agents are provided by the state, it's really open to abuse.

@elonmusk @SawyerMerritt TeslaSpaceXAI = profit

@sama Lol funnily enough I noticed 5.4 and 5.5 refer to me as a goblin an awful lot

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@karpathy You've said that it's possible to have a small cognitive core as part of an agentic harness?
Do you think it's possible to have an openclaw-Iike framework built around a small open source model? If so, I wonder if it's possible to do continuous learning without model collapse?

@bryan_johnson Are you tempted to try regular dmt?

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@ns123abc But happy to put into autonomous weapons

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@levelsio Awesome post. There's never been a better time to start building

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@DaveShapi Yeah it was thousand brains that got me into ai. Amazing book. I'll check out those others

[Matt Ferguson @Matt_le_kat]

@Liv_Boeree @MrBeast Uh if companies in our own backyard can't collaborate, it doesn't give me much hope at a global scale.

@TheProjectUnity Wow this is exactly as I imagine it!

@naval I'm in paradise every day. Procrastination for me is doing deep dives into subjects I'm curious about.

@elonmusk in an ideal world, what's better: free money or no money?
