The final report on the Iberia Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) blackout is out.
A lot of people will be blaming renewables and talk about inertia. But the cause was bad voltage control and that's surprisingly easy to fix. Let me explain.

Dear #Minnesota:
Sorry to hear about your troubles.
As your president doesn’t appear to mind border reshuffling between our two nations, have you considered becoming Canada’s 11th province?
I think you’d like it here. We don’t hunt and kill our residents.

"Why should human brain be the main reference for machine learning systems?"
It isn't. The principles of intelligence are not exclusive to the human brain. All animals, including insects and spiders are intelligent. The problem is that the AI community keeps conflating intelligence with automation. Intelligence is not automation.
When someone like Yann LeCun claims that human intelligence is not general because they can't calculate as well as a calculator or play chess as well as a chess computer, he's making a category error by comparing intelligence with automation.
When Shane Legg (DeepMind) conflates intelligence with "cognitive intelligence", a made-up definition, he, too, is making a category error. Calling himself "chief AGI scientist" is laughable.
Any system, such as an LLM, that is pretrained before deployment is an automaton. An intelligent system uses its own sensors and effectors to train itself in the real world after deployment, not before.
That's the difference between automation and intelligence. Being in the real world is important. Both Legg and LeCun are clueless about intelligence in my opinion. Heck, the entire AI community is ignorant of the true meaning of intelligence. They should stop talking about it and stick to automation.
Moreover, "machine learning" is also a category error. Compiling a data distribution of human-produced or collected texts or pictures into a machine is not learning. Learning requires causal understanding and it occurs in the real world.
Poca gente de la comedia puede presumir de haber acuñado un verbo. Mario Moreno, sí.
Lógicamente, el verbo es"cantinflear", pero ¿qué significa?
No se lo explico, se lo muestro con este pequeño clip con el que empieza el #MakeEmLaugh de hoy.
