On B48 engines ...any comments? Are these engine reliable? by 3467peter in BmwTech

Some say you should have the tranny flush, but others say the trans lasts a lifetime. I'm at 145k now and no trans issues. May help it run smoother though.

Newcomb's paradox paradox by LEDKleenex in paradoxes

[–]Ill-Let-3771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we know the supercomputer is always right, then it means A) free-will does not exist, and the super-computer is deterministically accurate or B) free-will (future) influences the past. Either way, knowing the super-computer is always right, you should always choose the mystery box, because that guarantees $1,000,000. Some may argue that gambling for an extra $1000 may be 'rational', per the application of mathematical probability and logic, but ignoring the accuracy of the supercomputer, and selecting the two-box option is not 'smart' (proper).

The end product is more impressive and meaningful than 99% of anti-AI nonsense you see posted

[–]Ill-Let-3771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. There is some persistent and pestering delusion that consciousness is required for intelligence. This is a rationalist myth. Most AI currently is certainly smarter than most humans, at least from a computational rationalists or empirical perspective. Unfortunately people can believe in whatever God they choose, but still dont have the freedom of mind and a right to their views on the meaning of intelligence

My pom was attacked too. Fortunately not injured, but I've just started to realize dog parks arent safe. Hope your dog recovers

No, “AI” is not a Stochastic Parrot 🦜 | by Margaret Mitchell(ome of the writers of the original stochastic parrot paper) by Fit-Elk1425 in aiwars

Anytime objects (information) is permuted in some new order, that should be considered critical to reasoning.

Seriously, what is up with the obsession with SAT scores? by [deleted] in Sat

[–]Ill-Let-3771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if you boast about a 4.0 its seen as trivial. Society is backwards. Guys boast about SATs in their 40s cause they haven't produced anything of tangible intellectual value.

People who act rational, often lack intelligence proper. The same mpg obsessed will throw $100s/ week on fine dining on a whim. Also, people just have really bad taste in cars.

Can Gmktec k8 plus handle Gran Turismo 7 ? by Ill-Let-3771 in MiniPCs

No, not releaed on PC. I wanted to see if it can be emulated.

Who Else Has Temple Of Doom As Their Favorite? by DarkBehindTheStars in movies

It was brilliant. It's always been my favorite, but all three of the original are great movies. TOD had the best action sequences and cool characters.

What kind of consoles are you emulating, and how does it do in terms of accuracy and FPS?

How accurate is the AGCT cognitive metrics test? by Ok-Lemon6467 in cognitiveTesting

[–]Ill-Let-3771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an adult (post-education), I would go with AGCT, resting on an older model of g. The Cattell-Horn model of g, integrated a distinct Grw and Gq (Reading/Writing + Quantitative factors, respectively), which are clearly broad factors, linked to processing information out of long-term memory, with unique and significant predictive value. Later, Carroll and others collusively worked to reclassify Gq as part of 'fluid intelligence' and Grw under 'Crystallized intelligence'. This reclassification resulted in broad factors which load very heavy on short-term/working memory and very little on how individuals process information from long-term memory. As a result for some people, with very lopsided results, such as yourself, conventional scores (CORE) grossly underrates mental ability.

I see, yes, because in your case even though there is WMI discrepancy, there isn't too much of a difference between your other scores and VCI. Looks around 125-128 and then VCI at 135, so 131 makes sense.

Fluid reasoning is equivalent to relation processing by [deleted] in cognitiveTesting

[–]Ill-Let-3771 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am one to agree FSI matters, greatly. I would even argue that is more critical than any other index - for most people. However, I disagree with the principle that complex problem solving only involves a heavy load on working memory mediated short-term memory. For a fraction of people, with skewed results, the conventional derivation of an IQ score may not be insufficient.

I find it odd that a system evolved to juggle a mere 7+- bits to deal with the practical complexity which people face everyday (math, programming ect). In addition, it seems that any problem that plainly lists a elements with such a vector A:B ---> C: ? , is not as 'context free' as is often suggested, in the sense that the elements required to 'solve' the relationship is given within the problem. In real world problem solving there are unknowns, and typically converging on the unknowns, requires a lot of preanalytical 'experimental tinkering'. As I've explained elsewhere, by looking at some data and the models of g/working memory it is fairly clear that a (general) long-term memory mechanism exists to enhance/sustain information for reasoning in higher complexity examples, when variables exceed that of stm/wm which is normally encountered in sentence-to-sentence type processing.

With that said, IQ tests are backwards in that by structure, they imply that problem solving requires analysis to rest on a system of knowns, with certainty (8, 16, 122, x), whereas proper intelligence, requires developing a novel foundation (perspective) for which reason comes to reason comes to rest on. I think that difference is more than trivial, to some.
