conjuring alien minds

[Dan Robinson @danrobinson]

We love puzzles, so we acquired the secret to one of the most notorious puzzles in cryptographic history.

Kryptos is a sculpture at CIA headquarters with an encrypted message on it. The final 97 characters of it have never been solved.

Here's what we're doing with the solution.

there should be structures that gradient descent disfavors, eg hard boolean circuits, since gradients don’t flow particularly well through them. would be fascinating to map the space of structures “difficult” for gd

Exclusive: Andromeda started out as a project by AI-focused VC firm NFDG.

Now it's a standalone startup with a run rate of $100M and a $1.5B valuation after raising $60M from Paradigm.

I spoke to CEO @WMoushey about his plans to build a better market around global AI compute.

might be interesting to rl on this and see if it leads to a meaningful improvement in physics abilities.

(the ideal would be, given 1910-level knowledge, discover general relativity, but seems nontrivial to ablate all modern physics)

i'd be curious if models given free reign in synthetic worlds could derive its laws. e.g. can start by successfully navigating mazes in a locally non-euclidean env and then build up to a full mathematical description

@joemelko very cool research!!

[Ayush Tambde @atamb_]
