Worse men than you have solved bigger problems than yours.

@kunalb11 The era of scale is over. Now we are entering into the era of efficiency.

@bronzeagepapi All they needed to do was be a little bit patient.

"Hope" is the default. An Admissible heuristic function can only be optimistic.

... with apparently only one life to live on this earth, you ought to try to make significant contributions to humanity rather than just get along through life comfortably-that the life of trying to achieve excellence in some area is in itself a worthy goal for your life.

Closing applications this week.

Not a typical community/events role.

@yunta_tsai Scaling has a cost on the environment and the social structure. If the intentions are true, let the market decide if your technology makes profitable sense. But a few rich guys destroying resources and convincing others as well to do so, thats unethical at a lot of levels.

@paraschopra Without having the ability to tweak the prioriors reliably or some sort of local training or aggregating the signals within an organisation, the problem cannot be solved. Ultimately every org will require to train their own models so that the priors can be preserved and shared.

@SahilBloom Thats what Taleb calls anti-fragile. Those that not only survive but also thrive in uncertainty.

@beffjezos Less of a "big model smell" and more of a "big model stink"

There is no self improvement without external signal, only compression. RSI needs a huge continous flow of signals from the environment or the ability to harness patterns from the platonic space.

@mahaprasad_ @drummatick What is the output of "change directory"?

[Saksham Rawal @sakshamrawal]

@paraschopra Stigmergy limits what can be learnt. You can make more ants come, once food has been found but it doesn't optomise for the search for novel food.

One step forward towards a Theory of Everything

[Sabine Hossenfelder @skdh]

Physicists may have found the origin of gravity. And that would finally explain why gravity is different from the other forces of nature.
