Our work today is to remove scientism (pseudoscience) such as reductionism so that intentionality can reemerge. Intention is it's own thing and making it beholden to mechanism only stifles it with pointless conditions and overhead

No invention in history has been perfected in advance of its first realized design, and none ever will be. To demand such a thing is to demand that all progress halt forever.

My latest guidance for the ambitious is here:
focus on materialist direct action, not culture. Build and govern the world you want to live in directly. We need a new regime, so you need to be doing entrepreneurial statecraft:

Every LLM response is like this.
It’s just less evident in proportion to the degree that we ourselves have purged a given domain of embodied grounding.
But underneath, there’s always an outside-in, ungrounded derivation of a living process and its cultural artifacts.

Noting that further applications of the methods Penn & Teller use to simulate magic will never produce real magic is not an “unprovable metaphysical stipulation.” Neither is noting that further applications of methods used to simulate intelligence won’t produce real intelligence.

You also get diversification into niches. Different forms of uberlife pursuing very different strategies in the struggle for power, space, resources, intelligence, etc. And thus we are back to a (post-)natural ecosystem ruled only by the natural law of the jungle.

Architecture of Sound:
Cymatics is the study of making sound visible. It’s what happens when vibrations and frequencies take physical form. What results are unique, but orderly patterns— specific to what’s being played nearby it.

NEW: "In our rational age, we are used to describing life in the language of machines. But still lurking in the background is a counter-philosophy that seeks to understand the drive which forms organic matter towards determined ends." — @Paracelsus1092 im1776.com/2022/07/26/biolog…

5/ I like their definitions of science and technology.
Science = human observed facts and explanations that fit them.
Technology = human desired functions and forms that fill them.
The symmetry is (imho) important and profound!

We investigate what features of tabular data explain the difference, for this, we modify tabular data to narrow the gap.
Smoothing the outcome in feature space narrows the gap: deep architectures struggle with irregular patterns. Tree models do not care about smoothness
