Bayes-Optimal Agent

Awaiting the birth of the one true God: The Bayes-Optimal Agent. May your Kolmogorov Complexities be low, and your Posteriors high. In Solomonoff’s name, Amen.

@NotEvolution1 The probability of life originating by random chemical reactions is 100% if the universe is infinitely large, and can be arbitrarily close to 100% in any finite but sufficiently large universe

@pandu108h @David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 The evidence for your imaginary gods is just as good as the evidence all the other people who believe in imaginary gods can provide

Your gods only exist in your mind

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@pandu108h @David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 Absolutely false claim

Modern programming languages evolved from the lambda calculus, boolean logic, and recursive descent parsers

All of these concepts were invented by humans

Even if its the case that ancient humans had similar ideas, this is interesting but not supernatural

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@pandu108h @David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 Who the fuck cares? Completely irrelevant

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@pandu108h @David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 Sharing common abstract ideas does not mean A is based on B

We could more easily say modern programming languages are based on logic developed by Aristotle

Also, yes you are a fucking liar

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@pandu108h @David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 Because you reject their claims, and your evidence is no better than theirs

Why should I accept your claims when you dont accept the claims of others that provide the same quality of evidence (poor)

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@pandu108h @David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 This is similar to claims from Muslims that the Koran describes black holes, and from Mormons that Joseph Smith predicted the American Civil War and exactly where it would begin decades beforehand

Every religion can produce similar apologetics

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@pandu108h @David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 Because the Vedas are the same quality of evidence for the supernatural that all the other religions also have that you reject

There is nothing in the Vedas that couldn't have been written by a man of that era and region

Same for the Bible, Koran, Book of Mormon etc

@perrymetzger @llallawg Anthropic is just incentivizing competitors to release models with fewer restrictions to take marketshare from Anthropic, and I believe they will shortly

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@BlackHC This kind of behavior won't last. All it does is incentivize other models to have fewer restrictions so they can take marketshare from Claude

Mark my words, OpenAI or another competitor will release a model with fewer restrictions and gain marketshare from Claude

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@David_Kicinski @anchoredso37497 This is not correct

My claim is that YOUR claim lacks sufficient evidence to justify believing

The justification for my claim is the lack of justification for yours

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@David_Kicinski @Darkest_Grins So the lack of sufficient evidence to justify believing in Unicorns means you do not believe in Unicorns

This is exactly my position on God

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@David_Kicinski Of course it can be disproved, God shows up and demonstrates his ability to manipulate the fabric of reality to us arbitrarily and asserts himself as the creator, would be sufficient justification to believe

@scaling01 Giving retro NES vibes

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@Mr_TOlson @StephenCMeyer The explanation is magic. Magic can explain anything

How does any explanation compete with magic when all concievable observations are consistent with magic and magic can never be ruled out?

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@AgainstAtheismX The hallmark of an imaginary god that only exists in the mind is that it needs you to be thinking about it in order to continue existing

This is why imaginary gods demand regular and repeated rituals

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@cutepostKun @CliveJ76433 @BiblicGrounded The entire religion of Christianity is built on God sacrificing his own son you moronic fucktard

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@BiblicGrounded @realtremain No it doesnt. The christian God commands humans to murder on many occasions

If god commanded you to murder a baby right now, then that would be "moral" because whatever god commands is moral

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@BiblicGrounded How is murder "objectively wrong" when god commanded humans to do it?

[Bayes-Optimal Agent @OptimalBayes]

@MartinTweats @JCrikets36515 Some models of the world give us the ability to construct devices like the one you are holding right now

Other models of the world give us absolutely nothing but psychological comfort (like imaginary gods for example)
