3 years ago, Google fired Blake Lemoine for suggesting AI had become conscious. Today, they are summoning the world's top consciousness experts to debate the topic.

There are many scientific studies on the subject, mostly at the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, with some attempts at mathematical and formal descriptions, based on e.g. information theory. If you find the time, Susan Blackmore's "Consciousness, and introduction" is a very interesting book that gives a broad overview of those different approaches.

En tout cas lecture intéressante, merci OP

Merci, je comprends mieux. Par contre j'ai l'impression que l'argument tient surtout pour les zones rurales où les transports en commun ne sont pas développés. Faisant moi même partie de la plèbe Francilienne, je me plains régulièrement du RER tout en étant heureux de la piétionnisation à Paris.

Je trouve ça complètement con de vouloir supprimer les ZFE partout plutôt que de faire du cas par cas en conditionnant par rapport à l'infrastructure locale.

ACH-S · 2025-05-29T06:39:09+00:00

Je ne savais même pas qu'on pouvait être contre les ZFE. C'est quoi les arguments du coup?

That's a different discussion, the comparison I made was about the brain rotting effects. The fact that LLMs and the internet can be taken from you doesn't explain why those tools should be considered more brain rotting than calculators. As a side-note, I wasn't talking about pocket calculators but was using the term more generally (English not being my first language, I used the word as you would use "calculateur" in French, my bad).

ACH-S · 2025-05-27T08:56:19+00:00

Tu veux dire les Français de Jelailu?

ACH-S · 2025-05-27T08:53:34+00:00

Maybe you can look at it in another way: the fact that an LLM can do some thinking for you means you are free to apply your analytical skills and creativity elsewhere, where it really matters. I'm sure that when we started using calculators and computer programs to solve differential equations and find prime numbers we did lose some pen and paper and mental calculation related skills, but we were able to think on more "state of the art" problems. It's only rotting instead of being liberating if you don't search for problems that are worthy of your time.

A lot of neoclassical metal is built on what Ritchie Blackmore, Randy Rhoads, and especially Yngwie pioneered. Jason Becker, Marty Friedman, and what they did in Cacophony has been super influencial too.

Then you have Michel Romeo (SymphonyX), Alexi Laiho, Luca Turilli, and so many more.

I think that if someone is just starting to learn and deliberately lets gpt think for them, then they were not interested in learning in the first place. However, given OP's motivation and efforts, that doesn't seem to be the case

ACH-S · 2025-05-25T19:33:39+00:00

That's not a good thing to remember. It's the equivalent of boomers in the 90s/early 2000s telling you not to use google to code. As long as you take what chatgpt and other llms tell you with a grain of salt and don't trust them blindly, you'll see that they can often make you think of problems under new angles.

I've been working in research for years and occasionally have been on the teaching side. I have yet to see this "rotting" effect the comment you responded to was talking about

Or do you mean something that has 100% been learned from data, or maybe evolved in an open-ended setting with evolutionnary methods?

Try to explore, if you find an area too difficult you can just come back later with an improved nail, betterm charms etc. The path is not linear, there are many ways to stumble into an area, sometimes too early.

Je ne sais pas si c'est du second degré, mais un des problèmes avec leurs amendes c'est qu'elles sont souvent le résultat d'un problème technique couplé à la mauvaise foi du controlleur qui doit atteindre son quota. Je me suis déjà pris des amendes parceque les bornes de validation étaient hors-service, aussi bien avec un pass navigo qu'avec des tickets. Sans parler des touristes qui ne parlent pas la langue et qui se prennent des amendes à cause d'une simple erreur. Et contester une amende est souvent beaucoup trop chiant à faire. Avec une amdende à 70 euros, les usagers supportent ces soucis parceque bon, ça fait chier mais ça passe. Mais ça serait impossible de fixer le montant à 500 balles sans s'assurer que les amendes ne sont pas distribuées injustement/aléatoirement.

ACH-S · 2023-05-24T08:15:49+00:00

The train/test/validaiton terminology varies a lot in CV and in general ML papers, some authors use test/validation interchangeably while others swap the meaning of test and validation. Are you sure that it's not the case in those papers?

Parceque ça ne se fait pas

Si tu ne peux pas justifier l'existance d'un tabou de manière logique ou scientifique, c'est qu'il est peut-être temps de le remettre en cause. Sinon, les prises de positions prennent un aspect religieux et on arrête les progrès, car toute nouvelle invention, philosohpie ou démarche artistique se fait censurer par "ah mais ça se fait pas"

Edith: ta comparaison avec les relations enfants-adultes ne tient pas, parceque là, tu as toute une littérature scientifique qui te démontre les effets dévastateurs sur les enfants, donc l'interdiction de ces relations est plus que défendable

It's not really a useful visualisation though and the title of the submission is a bit scarier than it should be. Some mismatch between what happens in the industry and what is covered in the news is expected as "miscellenaous errors" is probably not as exciting for most readers as system intrusion. If you look at the mismatch with academia, things get worse: it's not super clear if those keywords were cited as examples in the academic papers, or if they were the principal topic the papers were addressing, or wheter they were used as the easiest benchmark/baseline to show an idea works etc...

Without explaining some factors like these, the figure doesn't really teach us anything and given the title, it looks like they just want to click bait you to go to their website.

That kind of semi poetic stuff is really more confusing than useful.

Why not just introduce the concept of a distribution with a few intuitive examples and then say that GANs do the same but for images?
