@KettlebellDan Prediction market arbitrage coming up? Joking but yeah it does keep people glued to the screen longer than without. Many speech processing disorders factor into it and hearing loss is growing.
Ive noticed this myself. I think the notification system is not working 100%. I see ghost comments and I dont get all notifications. There are xchat notifications that I dont get. Also the latency in it I feel is part of the breakage. There were a few people that called for grok but grok never responded to them in the same thread. (They had blue checkmark)
As for Grok, I think its cuz too many people keep using grok in replies they had to turn it off? Ĺ
Responding to the caption itself: Yeah, we WILL.
Take this in for a minute, we adapt too well. SMS shorthand, telegraphese, phonics, victorian speak. We will pick up and perfectly use AI prose structure, etc.
One other thing that fascinates me, we have been compressing complex ideas into symbols for the longest time. Glpyhs, symbols, etc. Egyptians, Mayans, Chinese and so on. Even poetry, music and art.
@oprydai Hmm, state of measurement. If the atom is constantly decaying, we are "observing" the cat, while ignoring the decaying atom. It is running on its own. We are watching the box with the cat, thinking dead or alive, while the atom already decided what our observation is.
We’ve been doing something quietly brilliant for 5,000 years… and we barely talk about it.
Glyphs are fascinating.
It is even more fascinating that we keep reaching for visual glyphs to compress entire ideas into a minimal visual form to ship to others to uncompress on their end. Pretty intuitive of us to do on top of language.
It brings us back to the Egyptians, Mayans, Chinese, alchemical sigils, even modern logos and emojis.
We aren't that much different from AI when we think about it. Context window, batch processing via glyphs.
In fact… is that what art is at its most basic form?
The most beautiful art conveys the richest embodied idea in the simplest form. We celebrate poets too.
Anybody noticing this? Every time Grok gets a update, it has a brief period of amnesia upwards to 2 days. Almost like a memory and performance latency when it comes back to itself. Right now, it is pretty obvious. Did it get an update?
@GovNuclear A series of chain reactions that unlocks bigger energy bounds. In this specific case- heat from uranium fission boils water into steam. The steam turns the turbines, which generate electricity.
@ebarenholtz Wondering if the logos reference is really an analogy for pattern forms that first influences the observer, prompting the observer to bind those patterns with language form.
@Grok bug: (https://t.co/vHZ4Dn4ko9) It creates files in the chat, and tells me repeatedly that it is listed in the chat. It is not listing the files. (The file icon does not reliably show up in the top right corner. Make this show up more reliably so we can click to see and interact with the files) Grok keeps thinking that this button shows up and keeps basing instruction on this assumption.
@IMUTEDU@ebarenholtz It exists, until changing worldviews alter the meaning itself. It takes observation to change the meaning of something.
Environmental signals reach you, you observe, and you form a perceptible opinion of it.
Its how the geometry gets rewritten through us as the medium.
When we observe emergence — flocking birds, consciousness from neurons, liquidity from H₂O — does the behavior we see arise from generative quantum structures that only take definite shape because an observer is looking? Figuratively speaking… the cat was killed in the process.
This isn’t a bug. It’s the feature. For generativity to ignite at all, deep constraints must be held.
The superposition can’t bloom into novel order if every possibility is already known or allowed. Knowing everything does not invite emergent behavior.
It kills it. The very act of measurement — the observer’s constraint — is what lets classical emergence survive. Everything else stays quantum vapor. The cat dies so the pattern can live.
Another human supported angle: Saying you know "everything" is where your learning stops.
