heterosexual tiktok posting is a constant pendulum swinging between “my big strong man guides me everywhere and I get to turn my brain off” and “my husband doesn’t know the difference between a pomegranate and a red onion”

@quietgoodnight @WTSmith17 Tfw you don’t understand Hegel but think you do.
English
Zizek is a philosopher-troll.
He is not a communist…nor a “moderate conservative communist.”
In his mind, he uses the Hegelian dialectic to churn ANY assertion into an erudite-sounding mish-mash ‘synthesis’ conveniently vectoring towards his post hoc goal that places him as the vanguard of intellect.
He’s built a career on this perfidy.
The Emperor Zizek has no clothes.
English
I confronted world famous philosopher, Slavoj Zizek, on why he calls himself a communist when over 100 million people have died as a direct result of communism…
He couldn’t provide an understandable answer.
Either he is just a lot smarter than me, or this is all nonsense.

@rohitshinde121 You must be slow if you think this is wordceling. Haha she was speaking at a 5th grade level.

And all of these economists have been proven wrong by the inexorable progress of time.
The Chicago School of Economics has proven its worth again and again by being empirically correct.
All of this wordcelling, yet nothing of value to add.

@Oneandonly54th @DomTechnostate Some books take actual labor and effort to understand, because it was a challenge for the author itself as well.
If you’re trying to explain a very complicated concept as an author, and it’s challenging. Why wouldn’t it be challenging for the reader as well?
English
@DomTechnostate So why wouldn’t you want to articulate your point more effectively? Sounds pretentious

"Elon Musk isn't an engineer"
Jensen Huang: Elon is an extraordinary engineer. He is singular in his understanding of engineering and construction and large systems and marshaling resources.
John Carmack: Elon is definitely an engineer. He is deeply involved with technical decisions at SpaceX and Tesla. He doesn’t write code or do CAD today, but he is perfectly capable of doing so.
Tom Mueller: Elon is a super smart guy and he learns from talking to people. He’s so sharp, he just picks it up. He is leading the development of the SpaceX engines, particularly Raptor.
Eric Berger: Elon is the chief engineer in name and reality.
Karpathy: Elon has an incredible ability to reason from first principles. It’s very rare.
Robert Zubrin: Elon Musk is a brilliant engineer with an extraordinary ability to cut through nonsense. When I met him it was apparent to me that although he had a scientific mind and he understood scientific principles, he did not know anything about rockets. Nothing. That was in 2001, by 2007 he knew everything about rockets – he really knew everything, in detail. You have to put some serious study in to know as much about rockets as he knows now. This doesn't come just from hanging out with people.
Yann LeCun: He’s a very smart guy and I’m in awe of some of his projects.
Garrett Reisman: He’s obviously skilled at all different functions, but certainly what really drives him and where his passion really is, is his role as Chief Engineer. That’s the part of the job that really plays to his strengths.
Josh Boehm: Elon is both the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer of SpaceX, so of course he does more than just some very technical work. He is integrally involved in the actual design and engineering of the rocket, and at least touches every other aspect of the business. Elon is an engineer at heart, and that’s where and how he works best.
Kevin Watson: Elon is brilliant. He’s involved in just about everything. He understands everything. If he asks you a question, you learn very quickly not to go give him a gut reaction. He wants answers that get down to the fundamental laws of physics. One thing he understands really well is the physics of the rockets. He understands that like nobody else. The stuff I have seen him do in his head is crazy. He can get in discussions about flying a satellite and whether we can make the right orbit and deliver Dragon at the same time and solve all these equations in real time. It’s amazing to watch the amount of knowledge he has accumulated over the years.
Yatharth Mann@yatharthmann
Elon Musk is an engineer. Jeff Bezos is an engineer. Larry Elison is an engineer. Larry Page is an engineer. Sergey Brin is an engineer. Jensen Huang is an engineer. Turns out capitalism does reward skills and intelligence, and the richest people are indeed engineers.

@eptwts @biohacker You haven’t read enough good fiction or poetry then.
In addition, for reading as a means to an end, generally textbooks will give you systematic knowledge that is formulated in a pedagogical way by a subject expert. There is a reason chapters are ordered a certain way and so on.
English
which is why i don't get people who glorify reading as something so mystical...
i don't see how someone actively doing anything would prefer to intake that knowledge through reading a book front to back instead of getting a rundown & focusing on the part that matters, makes no sense
English
Books contain something called implicit knowledge, which is knowledge that can be surfaced, taught, or documented.
For example, you could read a book about ice-skating techniques.
But that knowledge is almost useless until you put it into action, because you still have to develop the skills around the techniques
How much weight to place through your feet, how to react when someone crosses your path, how to maintain balance, and what happens when your head moves too far forward etc
That is tacit knowledge, which relies on lived experience, feel, and instinct developed through your own feedback.
Meaning it can't actually be taught through a book
Learn to separate the two.
EP@eptwts
this tweet made a lot of people angry... the irony in the discourse is that i'm a more successful writer than every single person disagreeing with my point despite barely ever reading books you can read 1000's of books on a subject, but you'll never be as skilled in it as someone actively in the arena putting info into action & getting real feedback hence why i said that spending hours reading books front to back for INFO is a waste of time... the real work which will grant 100x more knowledge for the same time investment is actually applying said info sending books to an LLM that has access to a knowledge base around you / your operations is a quick way to identify which parts of the book will actually apply to you of course it will miss some nuance but that's completely expected - once you see a part that is actually applicable you can go and read it

we tried to build this ourselves at cluely, but it's a hard problem to solve
fundamentally the problem is with the models
for proactive ai glasses (or even just proactive ai), you need
> sub 300ms response time
> continuous visual scene understanding
> super high precision on "when to help"
> insane context window
> ultra low-friction output (a text blob is high friction)
and like 10 other core features that just don't exist yet
impressed that this team does not stop and are constantly finding workarounds to try and win an obvious future form factor

@wordgrammer This is absolutely obvious to anyone with common sense. If Scam Altman was honest, then he wouldn’t be doing well. He isn’t dumb and knows this, why he’s a sociopath.

AI is a slave to capital, and capital is a slave to the algorithm. If Dario didn’t fear-monger, his clips wouldn’t go viral. And if his clips didn’t go viral… he’d raise less, hire worse researchers, and have fewer customers.
Anyone who has ever had a post over 100 likes knows: you don’t pick what posts go viral. Quippy one-liners go viral. “Thoughtful, nuanced discussion, carefully approaching the future with wisdom and optimism” get zero likes. From my own experience, at least, I have to constantly choose between “saying what I really believe” and “selling out to the algorithm”. Even this post will probably get <10 likes because nuance is anti-mimetic.
Dario and Sam both play into the FUD surrounding AI. Some people call this “bad marketing”, some people love to say “you should hire a PR department”. But in my mind, the problem is deeper… FUD goes viral, “good pr” does not go viral.
We all knew this in 2008-2019. We saw that social media was full of anger and clickbait. The tech industry profited off of rage baiting, clip farming, clickbait, and so on. But the tech industry didn’t, itself, have to rage bait, clip farm, or clickbait. Right? Y’know, Zuckerberg stayed in the shadows, and micro-influencers did the FUD for him. Same for YouTube, same for Twitter.
In the 2008-2019 era, social media platforms pushed people into increasingly radical political opinions. Simply because FUD goes viral and nuance does not. Social media platforms profited off FUD while still having plausible deniability. Radical political views increased engagement, which kept people on the platform. Did Instagram/YouTube ever themselves push the FUD? Hard to say. Probably. But maybe recommendation algorithms naturally optimize for radical political views. Is YouTube at fault for showing people what they want to see?
But now. AI labs must, themselves, play the social media game. That means they must constantly choose between going viral and being optimistic.
And so… the tech industry must game the same recommendation algorithms that it once created…
I don’t think we can solve AI’s “pr problem” until we can solve the much deeper problem that recommendation algorithms are not aligned with human interest…

@fav83com @fkasummer How? I’ve read hundreds of pages of music in a day which is harder, reading a whole book in a day is like a relaxing thing to do.
For serious books I’ve only read a whole textbook in a day once, and it was head first python and I don’t think I gained that much from it.
English
@fkasummer I can finish an easy fiction book on a lazy day, but I’ve never done it many days in a row. And I obviously can’t even dream of getting close to 300 pages/day for any serious books. So I have a deep respect for the people who can. This is very impressive.

If you can't read 300 pages a day, you are illiterate.

It’s good to see philosophers working on AI. I hope we see more philosophers like this.
We gotta get some Kant scholar to figure out “what is the part of reasoning that humans have that LLMs lack”…
I’m so sick of hearing“LLMs can’t reason” because they fail a test for one, specific part of what we might call “reason”.
LLMs have some capacity for reason but not all capacity for reason… someone gotta go through the 600 page book and dig up what Kant would say about it… prolly something like “they have the capacity for analytic judgements but no intuition manifold” or something
ℏεsam@Hesamation
Google DeepMind researcher argues that LLMs can never be conscious, not in 10 years or 100 years. "Expecting an algorithmic description to instantiate the quality it maps is like expecting the mathematical formula of gravity to physically exert weight."

@MattisRedacted Yet he’d mog you in Ancient Greek, Latin, and had a better education on all the classics, including religion.
If he isn’t a great thinker, then what does that make you? Since you are lacking in all these areas comparatively.

Marx got his PhD from a school that was quite literally known for handing them out to anyone with the money to pay for one
He was never editor in chief of anything resembling a major newspaper, just radical left wing rag mags which were primarily short lived.
There was nothing groundbreaking about saying that the mode of production is a primary driver of society.
Inspiring a movement that resulted in the murder of millions and the deaths of tens of millions more through various means is not something to be proud of.
China isn’t Marxist, and they’re barely even communist by any economic standard.
Marx wasn’t some great thinker. He was a loser, a leech, and an idiot; and his legacy is nothing but misery for untold millions of people.

@sidhant_sarthak @diz__zee If you can’t figure it out on your own perhaps you’re not as smart as you think.

@GenAI_is_real The ‘philosophy’ is the marketing, the engineering is about like KV cache optimizations and esoteric quantized types. Not as easy to make normies care about it if you don’t grandstand on biz.
English
as someone who works on making LLMs run faster and cheaper every day, i can confidently say the question of whether theyre conscious has exactly zero impact on whether theyre useful. we dont need our inference stack to be conscious, we need it to be correct, fast, and affordable. the consciousness debate is fascinating philosophy but its a distraction from the actual engineering problems that determine whether AI creates value. the gravity formula doesnt need to exert weight to help you build a bridge @Hesamation

@sidhant_sarthak @diz__zee There’s plenty of literature that is more challenging than any course you’ve ever taken, or textbook you’ve studied. Stop larping like you know about intellectualism, and can make categorical distinctions on which fields are superior when you clearly lack knowledge.
