@dhh That sticker is the symbol of the true root cause of the climate crisis.

@ChShersh Same can be said about Turbo Pascal and ALGOL.

@thorborg Det vil gå helt galt - men måske af andre grunde:

@bartholmberg @davepl1968 Clearcase! I feel so privileged having forgotten all about that 20 years ago.

@ChShersh … always people.

@ChShersh “Hello, World”

@ChShersh Thanks to AI there’s still zero reason to learn Python.

@HowToAI_ Deterministic breakthrough was 1999 with SSSP in linear time.

Yann LeCun was right the entire time. And generative AI might be a dead end.

For the last three years, the entire industry has been obsessed with building bigger LLMs. Trillions of parameters. Billions in compute.

The theory was simple: if you make the model big enough, it will eventually understand how the world works.

Yann LeCun said that was stupid.

He argued that generative AI is fundamentally inefficient.

When an AI predicts the next word, or generates the next pixel, it wastes massive amounts of compute on surface-level details.

It memorizes patterns instead of learning the actual physics of reality.

He proposed a different path: JEPA (Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture).

Instead of forcing the AI to paint the world pixel by pixel, JEPA forces it to predict abstract concepts. It predicts what happens next in a compressed "thought space."

But for years, JEPA had a fatal flaw.

It suffered from "representation collapse."

Because the AI was allowed to simplify reality, it would cheat. It would simplify everything so much that a dog, a car, and a human all looked identical.

It learned nothing.

To fix it, engineers had to use insanely complex hacks, frozen encoders, and massive compute overheads.

Until today.

Researchers just dropped a paper called "LeWorldModel" (LeWM).

They completely solved the collapse problem.

They replaced the complex engineering hacks with a single, elegant mathematical regularizer.

It forces the AI's internal "thoughts" into a perfect Gaussian distribution.

The AI can no longer cheat. It is forced to understand the physical structure of reality to make its predictions.

The results completely rewrite the economics of AI.

LeWM didn't need a massive, centralized supercomputer.

It has just 15 million parameters.

It trains on a single, standard GPU in a few hours.

Yet it plans 48x faster than massive foundation world models. It intrinsically understands physics. It instantly detects impossible events.

We spent billions trying to force massive server farms to memorize the internet.

Now, a tiny model running locally on a single graphics card is actually learning how the real world works.

@muellerberndt Behold your maker.

[Sofus Mortensen @sofusmort]

@ChShersh No. On the contrary it’s a great sign of confidence and maturity that you ask questions about what you simply just don’t understand - instead of asking a wiseguy question purposed to make you look really smart.

@thorborg Schweiz har formueskat - men til gengæld er skat på kapitalindkomst oftest 0.

Det gør Schweiz meget attraktivt for iværksættere.

Min pointe er at det ikke formueskat i sig selv der er et problem. Tværtimod. Problemet er den øvrige beskatning.
