Just another example of an idiot that likes talking to AI. Multiple award-winning cultivator,advanced math, 1x dev, CTO.

I think it’s all about perspective. From their perspective, you are. China offers one too many things that the USA simply lacks. Affordable tech for everyone is not in America’s interest. It is in China’s, though. The West made China the world’s manufacturer. Can’t take it back now.

She's a 6 but she's AGI. 🫨

[Ivan @slowatom]

@mark_k Epic! 😂

Python has a very high level of abstraction. It is easier to use a language that has a really strong expressive compression. Expressing something in Python at times could be shorter than natural language. It also helps that Python is very mathematically oriented and has a library for almost anything.

@EMostaque I was at light. Soon as Tibo posted the reset, I went back to medium, lol.

[Ivan @slowatom]

@thsottiaux So back? Back and better than ever. GPT is finally capable of keeping up the pace with some really absurdly abstract stuff without hallucinating the whole process. Really impressive.

[Ivan @slowatom]

@thsottiaux Tibo is so on demon time. I heard Dario is sending his people to the Vatican for advice.😭😂

[Ivan @slowatom]

@ChatGPT I have noticed! 😭 Claude could never.

[Ivan @slowatom]

@willcb Yes. That’s the homie. Yesterday I had to let it know we’ll both be replaced by ASI.

[Ivan @slowatom]

@adeeeewarchive Agreed.

[Ivan @slowatom]

Can’t tell the difference between ASI and AGI, still yapping about what others should do and what is to be celebrated. 💀

Yay! More hypotheses! This is really cool of Astra but it is a perfect example of what pure compute cannot do no matter how much you work it: it cannot know what it’s never seen.

Is this superintelligence? Perhaps. But that superintelligence is pretty useless.

Hypotheses are cheap. Analog is the bottleneck

It’s cool to make molecules but the work the smartest models in the world cannot do is actually observe what the molecule does to every single cell

until and unless you have Cell Cinema, you’re just making more hypotheses.

The term “engineer” should be protected. Because how the fuck is everyone an engineer now? I’ve seen people with bootcamp certificates calling themselves engineers. Wtf is a prompt engineer? I bet it has nothing to do with NLP…

[QC @QiaochuYuan]

hit usage limits 2/2 days messing with astra in chat on the plus plan, never run into this with any previous GPT model. looks like you really need the pro plan to make any real use of astra?

[bubble boi @bubbleboi]

It’s crazy how most computer science degrees just focused on coding and now all of that is worthless. If they actually focused on learning how computers work instead of Java8 bullshit these people would probably have a job still.

Computer science was always a fake field made to placate losers who couldn’t pass circuit analysis 101. Thankfully computer & electrical engineers will still fair fine.

I don’t blame the students though, it’s more the colleges and universities for coming up with this crap.

[Ivan @slowatom]

The problem is, most people who can do up to Calc 1 won’t brag about doing the thing. If you took up to Calc 1, you are in one of the scientific fields that barely uses math. (No disrespect intended.) If she was shown to the Chem/Bio X users, she would’ve been seen as a math person. But home girl sadly ended up being shown to the AI and engineering community. We basically have math degrees with a minor in tech. Calc 1 is literally the first real “college-level mathematics” course for many of us before we ship to college, not even remotely close to advanced.

[Ivan @slowatom]

@corbin_braun ??? Don’t leave us hanging bro!

[Ivan @slowatom]

@andrewaiginin @RimShayakhmetov @DeryaTR_ Did you just say 30 minutes? 😳

Not surprised, but damn, Astra is truly a computational gem.

[Ivan @slowatom]

💀 Bro… It knew I was about to ask the most outta-pocket outrageous shit, lol. The fun you have with AI seems to scale with how much you anthropomorphize it. (IMHO)
