In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce how the Elon’s Election Interference Machine™ (EIM) works. Since Musk & his broligarch allies won the presidency for Trump, they’ve now harnessed the machine to interfere in European elections, including the ones in Germany & Romania. 1/23

evolutionary algorithms can approximate evolution, this does not mean evolution is an algorithm any more than algorithms that approximate gravity mean that gravity is an algorithm.

To be fair, it was Spencer who said that, Darwin added it in later additions. However, the subtlety of the phrase is often missed ... we define the fittest as those who survive i.e. evolution is survival of the survivors. There are many approaches to competition (the act of seeking with others) of which the three most common tactics are conflict (fighting others), co-operation (helping others) and collaboration (working with others). To survive in a world of competition then the tactics of co-operation or collaboration may well be the better approaches over conflict. Given we are a social species, it would suggest we've reinforced those tactics through evolution.

I'm baffled that people are baffled by China's move over DeepSeek. This was clearly signalled, many times, in huge 100 foot letters with flashlights and signs shouting "this is what we're going to do" repeatedly over several years. WTF is wrong with X/Twitter? How can anyone be baffled by this? When did X/Twitter become invaded by so many muppets? What sort of monstrous head banging bereft of thought echo chamber is this becoming? To be blunt, "China is one of the countries which is not strategically inept. The summit was barely underway before China Gov signalled again its intended role in open source AI and a number of Chinese enterprises have reinforced that message since" - medium.com/mapai/why-open… Anyway, more general thoughts on this at - linkedin.com/posts/simonwar…

Lots of fascinating word choices in "PROTECTING THE UNITED STATES" - whitehouse.gov/presidential-a… In particular "replacement of the culture on which our constitutional Republic stands" ... hmmm, but all cultures do change over time, they are not static, we're an adaptive species. The US today is not the same as 1776. The concept of "We the People" used to primarily refer to white, property-owning males. The culture itself was more localised and more community based but today is more about individualism. However, there are some strong shared cultural values over that time including the US revulsion at the idea of autocracy from the tyrannical rule by the British monarchy to checks and balances in the constitution to modern day practice.

"Education need to be completely restructured with the integration of AI." - x.com/deryatr_/statu… I would strongly disagree. It needs to be completely restructured around critical thinking and lifelong learning. Having mapped out the education space in 2022 / 2023 with teams that work in education and then used these maps to identify where to invest, I can quite comfortably say that our top priorities for society should be investment in critical thinking and lifelong learning. Yes, the top priorities for the market are about making money and these include New Practices / Use of AI. Arguing schools should adopt this on the basis of improvement in metrics just reinforces what most education systems currently do which is produce more useful economic units. This is what the market needs rather than what society needs which is people that think.

I prefer to call it explorers, villagers and town planners these days due to the colonial overtones. Be also very careful, make sure you have a solid set of principles in place - medium.com/mappingpractic…… That said - pioneers, settlers and town planners - is still doing the rounds, almost twenty years old now ->

@DoubleDownNews Still enlightening and so simple

Nouveau sketch : »Comportement systémique »

X : But what about the investment so far? Me : Sunk cost fallacy. Just because industry has invested billions in a set of interesting experiments doesn't mean society needs to continue to support that path. These models will be replaced over time, it's better to now put it on a stronger footing. In Europe, France is leading the way in open source and AI (and that include open training data). It's about time UK pushed this agenda forward. China is already gearing up with blacklists of training data, support for open source.

Me : I could give you the same outcome for a 1000X less money than the Boring company. X : How? Me : Pay me $20M, I'll sit on a beach for 5 years drinking margheritas and then I'll phone you up to say "we failed" ... think of the $19.98 billion we would save ->

Amen Without any religious thoughts

X : What is your goal in life? Me : Same as many people. Live a comfortable life without strife, without causing harm to others or future generations and to put more into society than I recieve. X : Achieving it? Me : No. It's messed up by the few who want to destroy the world in pursuit of more expensive watches. Goals are rarely something you can achieve alone.

One of the many reasons why the old Athenian system of democracy used sortition to select its representatives who democratically voted on issues. The UK may soon follow the US and become the best election that money can buy ->

Listening to a view that US military pursues HITL (humans in the loop) and China pursues HOOTL (humans out of the loop) ... well, the existing systems point to the exact opposite and China is the leading voice trying to ban LAWS (lethal autonomous weapon systems) at the UN.
