@VilgotHuhn @KordingLab This sounds like a description of primate cognition achieving something like logic, by throwing heaps of experiential data at a bunch of boring survival tasks - a greedy fast future predictor based on correlations alone - should have hit a wall some time ago, but here we are

@KWargamer @yang_yi_cn @chanwoopark20 @pirchavez Does anyone else also feel that "noise" (uncertainty) lies at the crux of thought?

[Philip Meier @hooPhilip]

@KWargamer @yang_yi_cn @chanwoopark20 @pirchavez Humans minds aren't stateless - we have internal working memory - and leveraging that is probably how we do symbolic manipulation (even if our implementation of the symbolic transforma might be done with squishy probabilistic wetware)

[Philip Meier @hooPhilip]

@KWargamer @yang_yi_cn @chanwoopark20 @pirchavez I think the curse of dimensionality prevents a system from doing the FULL probability mapping. Instead some finite sampling makes the problem tractable again.

[Philip Meier @hooPhilip]

@KWargamer @yang_yi_cn @chanwoopark20 @pirchavez Inferences is a decent approach of your "axioms" are probabilistic claims, that you car over to make more downstream "beliefs" that are likely to be consistent with the probabilistic input.

[Philip Meier @hooPhilip]

@KWargamer @yang_yi_cn @chanwoopark20 @pirchavez Logic is more like set theory. Deterministic transforms given fixed axioms, with no uncertainty in them. https://t.co/aj8PVYtTDS

[Philip Meier @hooPhilip]

@chanwoopark20 Logic is super deterministic, once you have your premises. But you have to assume the starting point. On the other hand "perception" promises raw observations of bits of reality that lead you to "premises" that you could extend with good old symbolic logic.

@Neuropalcare Thanks for organizing! 4 years and counting, now. Do you have presentations online for your remote community?

@Syth406 @minhsmind I know it defeats the joy of working in person / on set, but how do you guys feel about looping in remote crews? I just did some location scouting for gen AI video-2-video assets, and it strikes me that this kinda work would pair well for people on a team at a gen battle.

@Syth406 @minhsmind @synth406 When are you thinking about going up / down?

[Philip Meier @hooPhilip]

@rezawrecktion @OpenAI @Tribeca @sama Congrats!

@etherington @theangle What's your process for selecting which startups are worth covering for your audience?

[Philip Meier @hooPhilip]

Initial prompts made last night with @louiepecan at #cerebralbeach wrapped up this morning with @10zebra_app.

Claims from the paper (hardware dependant, code not released). Still ... 1 minute!
