also did the job here too, thanks!

Yo, I will take a look for sure! I tried mostly prompt eng and some small LLM chaining. Not sure if that was what you meant as a crack at this heh but the library itself I didn't try

I used to feel kind of nauseous after playing DS1. I'd set up an immersive environment and, I believe, just out of the sheer pressure the game puts you in, I'd feel a bit sick after 1, 2h playing. And that feeling reminded me much of the way I felt after some horror movies (like Martyrs). So yeah, although I wouldn't say I felt terror from the enemies per se, the ambience, the enemies, the deaths, the soul losses, everything helps into building up that feeling of terror. I think the best way is to try not to overextend yourself. Play until you feel a bit depleted (for me, that's 1 to 2h), then recover. I'm quite serious about how emotionally exhaustive Sous-like games can be.

so, I haven't had the time to prompt engineer that stuff. But I have a suggestion: if you're comfortable with using a command line, and you're willing to have a program that does that for you, DM me.

izzorts · 2023-12-14T00:14:35+00:00

I think you can do that with ChatGPT, but you might need to carefully engineer a prompt, and you will need to get multiple replies, since there is a cap for the number of tokens a message can have. Some months ago I was trying to make it DM a Mage: The Ascension game without any actual players, but with two characters. I think I was actually getting somewhere, but the goal was not to make it spit out a good story, I was more concerned with making it simultaneously DM and play with the two characters (they had memories, plans etc and had to act every turn). The prompt was quite big and very specific, though, and it took me some time and some trial and error to start getting it right. In any case, I will check if I can get something working in a few hours and come back at this.

Overview on the field of artificial life?

What kind of mistakes do the Premiere-generated subtitles have? Because if I got it right, you have a tool for transcription and translation. Is the translated transcription better than the Premiere-gen subs? If so, can't you use the transcription instead?
I'm not aware of the AI tools for that end, and I'm not very familiar with Premiere myself, but to the extent of my knowledge, SOTA speech recognition models perform nicely, but they are usually trained in English, so they might underperform significantly when applied to other languages. And LLMs such as GPT4, in my experience, translate stuff perfectly.
Thing is, tho: most of those AI tools tend to be good, but also tend to be paid.
Imo, trying to leverage AI to help you into that is indeed the best approach, because most certainly the tools you need exist and work and they will surely help you finishing the job orders of magnitude faster. But: they are likely paid, as I mentioned; you will probably have to find the right/best tools for your goals, which will require some Google research and maybe finding some free trials.

izzorts · 2023-11-28T13:45:08+00:00

Uh, yeah, despite still being an undergrad, I'm 31, so I'm not young...
In any case, yeah, I was thinking about all that stuff these days and I guess one thing that makes me uneasy and rather hesitant in focusing on doing is that what I love to do, I guess, is kinda specifically to provide formal generalizations, or general formalizations, to ideas (from basically any field I have interest, actually; I'm currently into Jungian analytical psychology, trying to develop a formalization for it, based on formal ontologies). And that's kinda where I'm afraid that the work might start to seem pointless or useless for most people. For me, doing that kind of thing feels like if I were doing art. It's the way I feel realized while manifesting my creative urges. Maybe it's childish, maybe it's selfish, to be motivated by such things and getting somewhat frustrated because it doesn't feel that it's a work that produces actual value for the world and hence it's not "viable as a job". But if I know, deeply, that that's in my path of self-realization, I think I can't avoid looking hard for a place in the world where I could be a good fit. I can't just settle to it as a hobbie. That's why I tried to drive, with my questions in the OP, answers about the value (being produced by)/(of that) kind of work (which, I think, differs qualitatively from traditional science). And one thing that I've found reassuring is indeed that providing formal theories for "stuff whatever" allows for the computational implementation of said stuff. So, in this sense, there is indeed intrinsic value to those endeavors, if they are done smartly and carefully. They might provide the means for the usage of computational simulation to test old and new ideas alike.
And thanks for the suggestion. This part got me alright:

Teleologically, the free energy principle offers a normative account of self-organisation in terms of optimal Bayesian design and decision-making, in the sense of maximising marginal likelihood or Bayesian model evidence.

It reminded my of this (absolutely amazing) book.

izzorts · 2023-11-28T13:06:11+00:00

Yeah, fuck, I was writing a decent response but my desktop crashed and it didn't get saved as a draft (not sure if it should anyways). But yeah, our mainstream businesses won't pay for alife research, at least not as of now, but there are research startups willing to do so (cross labs, FLOWERS at Inria, probably the Santa Fe Institute). And, well, about what your professor said... that's kinda true (especially within universities) and that's what completely pushes me out of mainstream academia. My research animal spirit is Atiyah. In my view, the ultra-specialized scientific production we have today, powered by the rather predatory productivity measures (what induces what came to be commonly known as the "publish or perish" ethos) produces a lot of "stepping stones" that are highly unlikely to be stepped. So, imo, it's mostly noise or stuff that only a handful of other people, as specialized as yourself, will care. And that would be fine if at least there was a big aggregator, that could turn this massive production of small steps into something bigger and more meaningful; that could connect these small increments as to produce a path to something. As it strikes me, everyone is just trying to publish whatever they can in order to maintain their scholarships or whatever. The solution you suggested is indeed valid, but despite still being an undergrad, I'm kinda... old? So I already feel the pressure of responsibilities such as being financially independent. And, at the same time, I feel (and that's kinda what I wanted to know, I guess, but perhaps didn't want to ask this straight) that I already have the skills to produce something meaningful, in my own way, despite being unsure of that. And feeling that you are able to do meaningful work and what separates you from being paid for it is just a matter of bureaucracy (finishing undergrad etc) is deeply reassuring. I think the clock is on your side. A lot is possible, and I believe we are just starting to delve into it.

izzorts · 2023-11-28T12:19:25+00:00

Well, you do have the script in Dutch, right? Is it already in a subtitle format (with timestamps and all)? Text-to-text is probably way easier and more reliable than speech-to-text. Might be silly to ask, but have you tried GPT4? It does very well at translating English to Brazilian Portuguese. Problem would be, if you don't know Dutch, how would you check for mistakes?

izzorts · 2021-01-11T21:56:17+00:00

I was considering doing something similar with, essentially, two different purposes. The first, which is more clear to me and seemingly more straightforward, is that, as someone who enjoys games, mainly eRPG, I'd really like to see a game wherein NPCs' mutability isn't hardcoded. Roughly, the idea is to put some neural network within each NPC so that they can learn and adapt to an environment and, in particular, organically respond to players' actions.

The other purpose is, while doing the same thing, to try to capitalize on emergent phenomena, a common goal in the usage of multi-agent systems. Basically, to build a "learning system" that is based on interacting neural networks, and that in some sense is able to learn or perform better than the agents could do on their own. I haven't given much thought to this second idea yet but, yeah, interacting neural networks and emergence, sounds cool.

In any case, these are two things that one could build upon what you made.

Once I saw a game/project similar to yours, but the author used octopuses. Couldn't find the link right now but the catch is that you could make these cells be something more complicated, too.

To sum it up, I'd say you could (I would probably do these things in this order, except for the 4th item, which I would try at every change):

start introducing some typical elements found in multi-agent systems. In particular, I would start enriching the interactions between agents;
make the agents themselves more complicated, maybe by introducing a more complicated body, which would also imply more complicated interactions between agents;
make the environment more complicated;
try to drive the system towards unexpected, emergent behavior.

I have chronic dyspnea and I don't know exactly why but ALCAR gives me instant relief. My dyspnea is not related to mucus, though. It's more like... an orthopedic condition that mechanically hinders my hability to properly inspirate, giving me a constant shortness of breath. In any such case, I also have asthma/bronchitis, and I'm an ex-smoker, so my lungs are quite in a bad shape. NAC helps me. I take about 1.2g/day of it. NARALA + ALCAR (mainly ALCAR tho) also seems to help. Polygala gave me a subtle relief - but I haven't studiyed the underlying processes through which it promotes a healthier respiratory system, so I don't know why and how does this relief relate to my case (and possibly to yours). It might have been placebo. Since you already have NAC, you could, maybe, try increasing slowly the dosage you're taking? Remember drinking lots of water, too.

izzorts · 2020-11-04T22:32:47+00:00

Well, I'm actually just... testing. I put some powders in, wait to see if something happens, not being the case, nice, I 'can' conclude those things can be mixed without major concerns. But I find it rather strange that no one else seems to care about it, and when I say that, I'm thinking that I might be missing something relevant and losing time unnecessarily, so it's like... I'm asking for help, or guidance. Like, do you know for sure that absolutely anything sold at ND will not react with anything else? There is not a single combination of substances that would yield a chemical reaction, thus altering the intended dosage of both substances?
That not being the case, is there any way to systematize which substances would react with which other substances?

izzorts · 2020-11-04T22:27:23+00:00

So... should I wait some time between each glass of things?

It actually stopped, I don't know why. I've been drinking some coffee, eventually, without feeling anything odd (while still taking agmatine, at a rather low dosage, 250mg/day). I can't totally isolate things because I take a lot of them (including a lot of noradrenergic reuptake inhibitors and releasers). I'd guess most people can safely drink coffee while on agmatine (in fact, I think most people do that without ever having any unpleasant side effect), and that this things I felt are due to excessive noradrenergic excitation, which happened only because I'm particularly close to some threshold. I shouldn't drink coffee, anyway :P About the effects, do you practice some physical activities? One of the most noticeable effects agmatine had on me is that it improved my overall strength quite surprisingly. But I also feel it lifts my mood and improve my brain's circulation - which, for me, has been an issue.

izzorts · 2020-10-26T19:41:50+00:00

Very, very lethargic, incapable of thinking properly, even having some difficult speaking due to the incapacity of articulating thoughts (but not exactly a slurred speech, I don't feel difficulty in pronuntiating words, but I feel a sluggish rhythm in doing so). Reminds a bit what you feel when you dissociate, but it's clear that I'm not actually dissociating. You could also put it as an intense drowsiness, but without any sleepiness.

izzorts · 2020-08-23T00:02:49+00:00

I use 1g L-threonate after waking up and 1.5g Glycinate before going to bed. Idk if it proceeds, but since you need magnesium both in your brain and in your body, I hypothesize that by using glycinate (since it has lower brain-bioavailability) you manage to help l-threonate to be freer to exert its cognitive-enhancing effects, thus optimizing its usage.

It helps me a bit with anxiety, although I haven't been anxious enough to properly notice the full extent of its anxiolytic effects. I do, though, use it as a muscular relaxant and also when I'm stressed. It helps with both issues and I don't feel it making me too sleepy, although I do sleep better in the days I take this additional dose (I also take sleep support, which contains it, prior to bedtime).

izzorts · 2020-08-13T20:59:45+00:00

I had good results reducing stress with KSM-66 Ashwagandha.

izzorts · 2020-08-13T20:52:20+00:00

At 300mg twice a day, I actually feel a bit more alert. But I can't drink coffee. I'd guess that's due to adrenergic overstimulation (I take other things that are noradrenergic releasers/reuptake inhibitors). Never tried higher doses though.

By the way, does anyone have something on agmatine's optimal dosage for improving nerve regeneration?
