The manifold hypothesis posits that many high-dimensional data sets that occur in the real world actually lie along low-dimensional latent manifolds inside that high-dimensional space. As a consequence of the manifold hypothesis, many data sets that appear to initially require many variables to describe, can actually be described by a comparatively small number of variables, likened to the local coordinate system of the underlying manifold. It is suggested that this principle underpins the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms in describing high-dimensional data sets by considering a few common features.

For new cultivators I don't recommend forming your mana core using air mana (breath meditation). It's a classic and has some nice skill unlocks but you can always put spare skill points into those later. Instead, I recommend cultivating factors of cultivation for the exp gains.

Knowledge is the architecture independent representation of models, it’s one of the most important paths out of the current paradigm of Too Large Language Models

Mythologies as a technology:

truth - a perspective

Truth - a mythology: self consistent truths together forming One

Verity / Veritas - collection of all veritable Truths

[Alex Zhao @alextzhao]

the universe seems be doing at least two things:

1) maximizing qualia

2) minimizing description length

the balance / equilibrium between these two is existence: autopoesis.

[Alex Zhao @alextzhao]

with a cost function(s) defined, there exists “right” and “wrong”, “good” and “bad.

without a cost function, everything simply * is *
