@DrAlgaeGirl Nice!

@DrAlgaeGirl Have to assume from context that Kestrel is not an actual kestrel.

If twitter shuts down I think you all should know that I don't even work for AriZona. Someone just left this account logged into a Macbook at the Apple Store in Queens and I've been using it ever since

@ebtapper I guess you've proved there's no favoritism.

shut. the. front. door.

This is insane. A system to decode visual stimuli from brain recordings.

So you're saying...in ten years...it'll be thought to image?

Lots of folks are talking about *emergence* in Deep Learning as if it's a new thing, that happens only in large language models at scale.

It's not! It has been happening for decades and in very small networks.

Just raised $500m for my new startup that uses AI to detect crypto fraud.

We don’t actually use any AI, we just say that everything is fraud and haven’t been proven wrong yet.
