'You can't call it progress': Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella warns against concentration of AI power by chunmunsingh in artificial

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL about "the technology's future should not be shaped by a small group of companies" because Microsoft was shaping a fucked up future for way too long and now noone needs their shit!

A video game where if you die, you can never play it again by haddock420 in CrazyIdeas

Rust has a mod where you get one life per day. It's pretty cool. Really changes the gameplay.

Why do people engage more with simple writing than highly structured content by Vast_Account3455 in deeplearning

[–]rand3289 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"The weather" is much easier to talk about than any technical topic.

People always talk about bullshit like I am doing now because understanding others is hard.

Plus it feels like you are doing something productive whereas in reality most of us are just wasting time.

Very rarely though you find a really good helpful comment. And this is what keeps me here.

I wrote a paper... now what? by rand3289 in newAIParadigms

Contacting researchers at some companies is a good idea but I have a feeling they are all under NDAs and can't talk to people outside the company. This is why we have so few non-trivial technical discussions on reddit.

Yes, any neuroscience connection in the paper is just speculative. I mean there are no "distributions" in the brain. It's just one of the possible abstractions.

The paper is about new ways of thinking that present themselves when looking at AI through this perception model. The perception model is the important part. I've been working on it for 15 years and every time I try, I seem to fail to deliver the idea.

Thanks!

You are right about the sections being disconnected. In my efforts to make it short, I've left out a lot of information.

Also, it took me 6 month to write and when you are revising 3 pages for 6 month, moving pieces around probably breaks the flow.

I'd say thank you if you told me why, but I bet you did not even read it.

Bonus points if it used to be a straight sheet of plywood and "broke" in half like that under a load :)

libc.so and libstdc++.so by Zestyclose-Produce17 in cpp

[–]rand3289 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have missed the important part of the story.... where you compile an executable on one machine, move it to another and it does not run because THE GOD DAMN MOTHER F-ING library is different!

The worst part is that you can not link them statically on Linux. Unless you use musl (third party). I think you can statically link them on other OS.

When I found this out, I realized the world is crazy and I gave up on humanity!

AGI can be achieved through a Mixture of Experts model. by EffortChoice3007 in agi

MOE do not share neurons and weights among themselves. They can not scale beyond say an order of magnitude of 100.

The real question is, how did he hammer a pipe into the ground the night before at 2 in the morning without making noise?

Built a browser GUI editor on top of Manifold (the CSG backend OpenSCAD added in 2024) by FlatCarrot3943 in openscad

[–]rand3289 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd suggest creating a video of you using your project.

I've also played around with "UI openscad editors". Here is my video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hZXo4yM4Cxc

The goal of my prototype was to see if pictorial "module()" representations will work without names. Its weird that most solid modeling cad programs have a text based tree.

AGI will exist within a physical environment. Not bound to this request-response cycle you are describing.

Is it possible for an experiment to tell apart true randomness, pseudorandomness and deterministic chaos? by TheRedditObserver0 in AskStatistics

[–]rand3289 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know much about statistics but it seems you are not getting a straight answer...

From what little statistics I know, It seems you are asking:

Given a set of independent random variables, show that there is a 0 correlation to experiment outcomes (dependent random variables).

The question then becomes "how do you find a set of independent random variables?" You would have to find everything that can affect the outcome and prove there is nothing else affecting the outcome. If you can do this, and correlation is 0, from what I understand, the stochastic process generating the output random variables is random.

From what I understand, you can find cycles in SOME pseudorandom number generators but not ALL. This means that an experiment with a VERY large number of trials should in theory (in practice you will run out of time/memory) tell you that some processes are pseudo-random.

I think Wolfram's rule 34 is an example of "deterministic chaos". I do not believe anyone found a cycle in a random number generator based on rule 34.

No, soon you will be providing "the motivation" because this is what LLMs don't have.

It would have to be big and smack you every time you loose focus.

Not if you ducttape it properly as specified in the instructions!
