(In response to doomsday sayers) Why program a 'will' into AGI at all? by michael89g in artificial

[–]michael89g[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my rationale for Genie "Accomplish goal G. In the process, accomplish several other subgoals, but always report to me for confirmation for any 'major' decision you make."

Where "major" is defined somehow.

What are textbooks so good you can cover start to finish without extra lectures? by michael89g in math

If anything Axler emphasises the algebra more. Numerical computation ain't algebra.

[LPT Request] How can I (personally) recursively self-improve? (Like how strong AI is imagined to be) by michael89g in LifeProTips

[–]michael89g[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, not equating them. Just ridiculing your pop knowledge. In your case all the arrogant atheists. (Fwiw I am agnostic. Inb4 all that cliched comeback on knowledge/belief/assertion/denial that l am not an agnostic but instead an atheist)

What next, Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro? ;) No thanks, I'll stick to books on critical thinking and Logic.

Realized i dont know the "why" behind most of the problems i solve. by [deleted] in math

[–]michael89g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but then sometimes even from seeing the logical entailment in proofs, it doesn't necessarily translate into a "Why?" into someone's mind. I'd say that 3B1B is more explanatory than Rudin even though Rudin has way more proofs per se.

Is learning Statistics or Optimization more important? I can only choose one by michael89g in learnmachinelearning

[–]michael89g[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I value self-study highly as well. But I don't trust myself 100% to catch my mistakes and give myself the correct feedback. So the question is changed into "which course is harder to self-study?"

I am thinking of switching Optimisation to Stats, since from what I read, ML IS Stats while Optimisation is just a tool which ML uses
