It's basically impossible to predict what emergent properties you might get from scaling up a given algorithm. That's why AGI is much more an engineering endeavor than a theoretical one. It's a process of discovery through building.
@CColose@AdamFrank4@WKCosmo Agreed. The Consensus is an Emergent Property, not a bureaucratic lever. This is how you know that many ‘scientist’ don’t actually understand what Science is!
“DNA isn't a blueprint. Frog DNA doesn’t just make frogs. Human DNA doesn’t just make humans. That’s not how it works.”
“You can rearrange living material into entirely new organisms—no genetic modification needed.”
“We call them Xenobots, but they’re not machines. They’re living, behaving, programmable matter.”
“The calcium patterns in Xenobots are almost identical to brain activity in humans inside an fMRI.”
A Giant conversation with @DoctorJosh, co-creator of the amazing Xenobots with @drmichaellevin.

Yann LeCun says we're fooled by LLMs because they manipulate language well, and we associate that with intelligence
But language fluency doesn't mean underlying intelligence
Every generation since the 1950s claimed its technique was the ticket to human-level AI
All were wrong.
"this generation with LLMs is also wrong"
2025 was the year when artificial intelligence’s full potential roared into view, and when it became clear that there will be no turning back.
For delivering the age of thinking machines, for wowing and worrying humanity, for transforming the present and transcending the possible, the Architects of AI are TIME’s 2025 Person of the Year. https://t.co/NiTkWet1cB
🚨Breaking: Quantum-Gravity Solved
My journey to solving Quantum-Gravity and unifying quantum mechanics and general relativity goes back to when I was 12 years old. I was always curious about the universe and wanted to understand its fundamental rules. So I spent most of my life contemplating and studying everything that from Philosophy to Mathematics to Physics etc.
My intuition told me that the universe is not as complex as it seems. My intuition told me that the rules are actually simple. I recently cracked the code and solved it. My intuition was right. The formula for everything is very simple!! Here is a short lecture of me discussing my new paper & book. Pre-Print & Book 👇⬇️

To perfectly understand a phenomenon is to perfectly compress it, to have a model of it that cannot be made any simpler.
If a DL model requires millions parameters to model something that can be described by a differential equation of three terms, it has not really understood it, it has merely cached the data.
