I'v been heads down in building a foundation for how apps should made in the future. TLDR: Apps are ephemeral, created on the spot to solve a problem right now. What needs to remain is the data

Can't deny that I also built Rool to be a powerful alternative to ChatGPT, made in Europe

Rool is the perfect foundation for building connected AI-powered apps, but it is also a chat with a powerful memory. Research, edit images, and collaborate with other users into a Rool

@KarstenCapion @JoachimBOlsen Atomkraft er ikke specielt billigt. Det gode ved atomkraft er at det er stabilt når vinden ikke blæser og solen ikke skinner, samtidig med at det er CO2 neutralt og ikke forurener miljøet.

@ylecun Trump's pet-eating claims are ridiculos, and its useful to hear that he thinks these things. What I really dislike, is when people attemt to use law to shut him up or punish him for his views. Chomsky got it right. You don't

I just tried OpenAI o1. I wanted to test its ability to reason about a genuinely new scientific idea. Although it was fun, it illustrated to me that o1 still can't think outside the box in the way that is needed to generate genuinely new understanding.

The conversation was about panpsychism. I asked o1 to help me think about how hypothetical proto-consciousness features of elementary particles could be formulated to explain particle properties that are otherwise considered fundamental, such as mass, spin, or charge.

proto-consciousness -> mass, spin, charge, etc

In it's response, it kept falling back to wanting to derive proto-consciousness from fundamental principles, rather than the other way around, implicitly falling into emergentist reasoning.

So, o1 is certainly great at exploring current human knowledge, but I doubt it is useful for generating new knowledge in the true sense of the word.

Human creativity, inspiration, and genius still have a role to play - at least for now.

@stats_feed Just like the last time you posted this overview, let me point out that the Danish flag, known as the Dannebrog, is first indisputably attested in the Gelre Armorial around 1350, although written sources claim it had been in use earlier.

@TBregnballe @pelledragsted Ok, god pointe. Men min er også god, ikke?

@pelledragsted Den omfordeling består i at der skal ansættes en nogle offentligt ansatte til at administrere den ordning, og så er der også nogle IT selskaber der tjener en flok millioner. Jobskabelse gennem mere bureaukrati.

Hvis regeringen vil lette skatten, så let dog skatten!

@stephen_housman @stats_feed @elonmusk 2+2 is 5, the Earth is flat, Man was never on the moon ... try a defamation case on that :-)

[Casper Wilstrup @cwilstrup]

@stats_feed @elonmusk Yep. And importantly, opinions don't have to be nice or even true to be protected.

@stats_feed Old age claimed the life of approximately 12% of the world's population in the same time span.
(with a few assumptions about life expectancy and global age distribution at the time)

@pelledragsted Ha ha. De har dumpet grundlæggene økonomi for dummies.

@ylecun @elonmusk It would very much serve US democracy well to prohibit electronic voting and go back to paper ballots - just like we in Denmark

It is not anti-tech, it is just one of those areas where efficiency is a distant second to trust and transparency.

@stats_feed @realDonaldTrump Norwegians, is this true? Do you really tip that much?

[Casper Wilstrup @cwilstrup]

@JesperWissing @hrmarcussen Okay. Det ser ud til at det er rigtig nok. Jeg har ikke kunnet finde referencer der underbygger mit udsagn.

[Casper Wilstrup @cwilstrup]

@ClaesKnudsen @hrmarcussen Det er nok for tidligt. Noget tyder på at vores kognition er klar til at navigere i trafikken noget før vi fylder 18, men at vi omkring 18 og fremefter bliver ret uansvarlige.
