@dvnxmvl_hdf5 Did you?

[Alex Efremov @alxecome]

@frankgoertzen @wolfejosh @ylecun If you need to learn all of the internet or fly long distances - modern large models and planes are good for that. If you need flexible learning/flight with a possibility to learn or quickly adapt to any situation - they're not

@T_M_Hatter @oh_that_hat @eonsys Not with the current technology, and this connectome is not of a single fly, but an average connectome of many flies

[Alex Efremov @alxecome]

@NwrdScissrhands @oh_that_hat @eonsys What's a book that tells about virtual fly emulation gone wrong?

We need AI that strengthens our ability to govern ourselves together, with tools that connect people to each other and enables our collective agency.

@dchackethal @alexeyguzey What makes you think that individual people are computers while groups of people aren't?

@el_poryadok @amrenamryan Вы причину со следствием перепутали

@RichardMCNgo @nathancofnas What kinds of asymmetries do you have in mind?

[Alex Efremov @alxecome]

@dvnxmvl_hdf5 That your life is filled with interesting stuff and not some pesky rl

@Elnaz_AK More like deaf, cuz there were always voices

@amrenamryan Кажется, выводы, которые делают последователи ММТ, работают только если рассматривать государство в отрыве от остальных государств

Preprint Alert 🚀
Multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) often assumes that agents know when other agents cooperate with them. But for humans, this isn’t always true. Example, plains indigenous groups used to leave resources for others to use at effigies called Manitokan.

@Chees3bal1 @wstree188966 @burkehenryt No, it's not. You're talking about not appreciating the new tendencies, while I'm talking about not appreciating the ugliness and lack of meaning

[Alex Efremov @alxecome]

@Chees3bal1 @wstree188966 @burkehenryt There are some real cool modern artists that use AI creatively as one of their tools. And then there's mountains of AI slop

[Alex Efremov @alxecome]

@xuanalogue Do people really perceive themselves that way?

[Alex Efremov @alxecome]

@HenryYin19 However, neither can be done, and so neither is practically useful. And talking about either doesn't seem to be useful too.

[Alex Efremov @alxecome]

@HenryYin19 I was not joking, and I think it does depend on it. Hypothetical usefulness ≠ practical usefulness. I could be groaning about how useful it would be to have Superman powers, or in this case, how much better it would be to have a human model instead of a fly one. 1/
