Never mind the typewriter, what about P(doom | PowerPoint) ?

"We had 12.9 GB of slides on our network and I thought, 'What a huge waste of corporate productivity.' So we banned it. And we've had three unbelievable record-breaking fiscal quarters since. Now, I would argue that every company in the world, if they would just ban PowerPoint, would see their earnings skyrocket."
-- Scott McNealy, CEO Sun Microsystems, 1997.

Black Holes as Brains: Neural Networks with Area Law Entropy

Motivated by the potential similarities between the underlying mechanisms of the enhanced memory storage capacity in black holes and in brain networks, we construct an artificial quantum neural network based on gravity-like synaptic connections and a symmetry structure that allows to describe the network in terms of geometry of a d-dimensional space. We show that the network possesses a critical state in which the gapless neurons emerge that appear to inhabit a (d-1)-dimensional surface, with their number given by the surface area. In the excitations of these neurons, the network can store and retrieve an exponentially large number of patterns within an arbitrarily narrow energy gap. The corresponding micro-state entropy of the brain network exhibits an area law. The neural network can be described in terms of a quantum field, via identifying the different neurons with the different momentum modes of the field, while identifying the synaptic connections among the neurons with the interactions among the corresponding momentum modes. Such a mapping allows to attribute a well-defined sense of geometry to an intrinsically non-local system, such as the neural network, and vice versa, it allows to represent the quantum field model as a neural network.

@AISafetyMemes This should most definitely NOT be centralised. If any AI tech should be decentralized and private, this is it right here.

Are you wondering how the new Mamba language model works?

Mamba is based on state-space models (SSMs), a new competitor to the Transformer architecture.

Here are 5 resources to help you learn about SSMs & Mamba! ↓↓↓

Scientists in Denmark have discovered two new fungi species that 'zombify flies and eject spores out of a large hole in the insect's abdomen "like small rockets". The take over can last quite long as three insect becomes a partially living drone to distribute spores.

Do you think that the world we create will be integrated into the cosmic mind of God or are we just food?

[Stability AI @StabilityAI]

Introducing SDXL Turbo: A real-time text-to-image generation model.

SDXL Turbo achieves state-of-the-art performance with a new distillation technology, enabling single-step image generation with unprecedented quality, reducing the required step count from 50 to just one.

The code, research paper, and weights for non-commercial use are now available on our website.

You can test SDXL Turbo on Stability AI’s image editing platform @Clipdropapp, with a beta demonstration of the real-time text-to-image generation capabilities.

AI video generation is getting shockingly good.

In a couple of years, anyone will be able to create a movie from a smartphone- we're entering a whole new era of film.

Here are some of the best examples I've seen:

The printing press scared a lot of people: the catholic church, the rulers of the Ottoman Empire (who banned it), even this Swiss physician.
They all feared that books were too dangerous to be put in the hands of the public.
In a way, they were all correct.
Books weakened their powers by making people smarter and more knowledgeable.
Feudalism, autocracy, magical thinking, and rigid religious dogma were eventually displaced by democracy, rationalism, secularism, science, and the Enlightenment.
And we are all better for it.

@fnedrik @EMostaque Of course. I actually know someone who invested a year into learning to code and stopped because of these sensationalist statements. We need to be able to separate the engagement farm from real life.
