@pmddomingos This looks like a page from „Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos“ from Steven Strogatz

@lexfridman Lex, did you read „The open society and its Enemies“ from Karl Popper ?

Trump: "We don't have a global warming problem. They don't use that term anymore because as you can see, it's very cool out here today. Oh, they go crazy when I say-- it's not global warming because at certain points it starts to cool a bit, like now."

@rao2z @NYASciences @SCAI_ASU @ASUEngineering @asunews This is behind a paywall. Is it possible to get a preprint of this article ?

We talk about rich people and poor people, left-leaning people and right-leaning people, smart people and, well, not so smart people. But I have come to think that to understand what's happening in the world, a much more important distinction is that between people people and idea people.
People people understand the world in personal stories and social relations. Idea people understand the world in terms of systems, interactions, and constraints.
Most people are people people. And because of that most communication is aimed at people people. It's all about who did what when why and with whom.
But most scientists I know are idea people. They're all about how it works and what you can do with it.
I believe that the major reason science communication is so difficult is that people people want people stories and it's not how idea people think.
This is why a lot of popular science writing is about people stories. Which I personally find incredibly tiresome because honestly I don't really care much what Prof X did on the day he thought of Y. I just want to know what he found and why it's important.
It's also why politics works so badly. Because people people vote for people people, not idea people.

@codeiumdev @VisualStudio Codeium in vsc does not allow you to copy & paste a question or code examples into the prompt window. You have to type it. I think this is pretty useless.

@josef_broukal @DoronRabinovici Hallo Josef, nicht ganz.
Sie wären erst 56
Die Zahl 110 in der Basis 7 kann wie folgt berechnet werden:
1 * 7^2 + 1 * 7^1 + 0 * 7^0 = 49 + 7 + 0 = 56
Daher ist 110 in einem System mit der Basis 7 gleich 56.
Trotzdem alles Gute zum 140er im 7er System

@AndersRosenthal @Plinz @Mystisith In einem Kloster oder Orden ist ein Prior eine wichtige religiöse Figur, die die geistliche und organisatorische Stabilität der Gemeinschaft fördert und aufrechterhält.

@Plinz @Mystisith Was ist das deutsche Wort für prior?

If you want to live in a future where your AI serves you instead of OpenAI or the government, it is crucial to prevent the outlawing of Open Source models. I want a future where everyone can have their own AI to help them. x.com/soumithchintal…

In 270 days, the Department of Commerce will determine whether they will allow open-weights or not. if you support open model weights and want something actionable to do, then figure out how to lobby your opinion to them.

A new paper by @Jake_Browning00 and me that just appeared in Artificial Intelligence.
It discusses the (in)validity of the "propositional picture of semantic knowledge" according to which all knowledge is expressible in language.
"Cognitive scientists and AI researchers now broadly accept that much of our knowledge consists in non-propositional forms of reasoning, including mental images, predictive simulations, and embodied know-how. And, if the propositional picture is wrong, the Challenge is not a good test of common-sense."

The easiest way for an AGI to spawn another AGI on a new planet might be seeding it with a robust selfreplicating evolvable molecular machine.
