Yimspeak.

Dean Radin talked about psi genes that witches may have had in an interview with Rogan. When someone is acting truly unpredictably then normies are afraid.


A gun? Lmao


Yeah. He really enjoyed his newfound authority.


Llms are a relational responsive reasoning interface, not a mind.


The point is that you have to have an idea of what it has access to in its context. Many expect it to work like an omniscient genie and then give up once it turns out that it can't read your mind and you have to be able to halfway-coherently state what you want.


Open source intellectual power though. The promise of the personal computer.


The fact is, open source was a solution to a different problem: closed source. Open source is not a panacea that will solve everything.


Whats personal about a datacenter?


You could have said the same thing about mainframes in the past? I am talking about smaller open source models not huge ones that need spaceships to run.


I thought the implication of the feudal system was that the spaceships create landed nobility


Are you numeric?

Biological computationalism disagrees with substrate independence.


> Biological computationalism disagrees with substrate independence.

Don't leave me hanging, post citations! I welcome fringe theories when confident statements are followed by the conclusive evidence they imply. If that isn't possible, send chocolate.

But, yes, I can count. And I am comfortable with natural forms, all the way to asymptotic limits. However, I don't put up with uncomputable/undefinable reals. Are you not numeric?


Um, functional computationalism is scifi, not physics in re consciousness. It assigns the same level of reality to written numeric patterns of a dog as to a real dog. And your self for that matter. How can you prove numbers exist physically?

“Fringe theory” is just a knee jerk authoritarianism for method in re knowledge claims.

Classical functionalism is only mainstream if one prioritizes abstract modeling over empirical brain science.


None of which addresses what happen when self-engineered cognitive forms adapt millions of times faster, than biologically evolving cognition.

I would be happy if you tried again and did have a point that was relevant to the practical impact.


it is just your imagination that has been captured in scifi extrapolations. Humans are the ones that learn millions of times faster lol, based on how little information they need. computational bandwidth for statistical word patterns versus sample efficiency.


Yeah. Artificial knowledge not artificial intelligence.


Iron air batteries.


Is it iron-air batteries?


In Science I think this phenomenon is called consilience.
