It is so blatantly simple. As long as you measure on the outside , or the inside with a separate observer, there can't be understanding.
You are equating measure to understanding. When will you learn to move past it.
The roadblock is measure.
Measuring the outcome of learning is not the same as understanding the process of learning.
Something these llm, lrm, rsi and world model researchers just don't understand 🤷🏻♂️
The bar lowered
The flats came out
The winds didnt sail
The dawns all about
Who is to who
For all they about
Nothing in the name
Yet shouts all about
"Intelligence is about recognizing patterns" 🤦🤦🤦
Man! humanity has been regressing.
Even intelligence would be like , dude i am not that.
A filmmaker about to become a father sat down with AI leaders and asked one question: What kind of world is my child going to grow up in?
My response was: What if that world could ACTUALLY be extraordinary?
The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist is now playing in theaters nationwide.
Everyone should watch this documentary over the coming weeks, grateful to be a part of this experience.
WE ARE RETROFITTING THE ANSWERS.
Then comes the Harness2 paper from google which also tries to automate the trial and error on harness and context. Another meta method. But again its judge is the same, LLM.
LLM has been made the judge, jury and the executioner.
P.S there is no two levels of recursion there.
Everyone on twitter aka X is speaking as if they are experts in Quantum physics or AI.
What you see outside is almost always not the mechanism inside.
Moreover any mechanism is not the truth, since all mechanisms are but a repetition.
Quantum physics, AI they are but mechanism
Ok so let me get this straight:
AI is trained on observed data and gives back observed data or a mixture of that.
That's empirical evidence!
I mean what else would it give 🤷
And to people who don't know AI, its a stat based next word predictor. It doesn't understand 🤦♂️
The first thing everyone should drill in their heads is CoT is not thought at all.
Its a set of tokens or words.
A highly "reduced" form of thought.
Thought is not intelligence, btw.
Yet scientists(priests) are claiming intelligence on an even more reduced approach.
Wake up.
All data is measured.
All measures are but based on axioms.
All axioms are assumed truths about reality, a figment of imagination.
Anyone claiming deep learning is grounded but String theory is not, is either a hypocrite or an ignorant.
Oh man! It's nothing new. Every era we get scientists who claim everything is solved. Cancer is solved. Materials are solved. We are gonna solve everything.
When will you guys ever learn.
Limited prisoners of thought.
Grounding eh. Dude forgot that all deep learning is grounded in mathematics which is ultimately grounded in axioms which are factually assumed or made up truths or imagination.
Any theory is but an imagination of reality.
Let Y be so n so. Check that so n so. Its also assumed.
Neither RSI nor World Models are gonna solve anything.
Keep burning resources in the name of science.
Science has become pseudo-science.
The idea of science was to make observations of what is, AND NOT KEEP CREATING DEAD BENCHMARKS AND GOING GAGA OVER IT.
Difference in finding the laws of nature, outside vs inside:
Outside one finds it intellectually, bound by instruments and materials.
Inside one finds it experientially which makes one free.
One can write infinity on a piece of paper but can only realize it on the inside.
Don't fall for the AI hype. Please listen to Mike Jordan of Machine Learning.
(1/7) I'd like to provide some additional context for the remarks that can be found in this interview.
(2/7) My discomfort with the attention being paid to existential risk---and with the ongoing dominance of the public discussion of such risks by a few so-called thought leaders---is that there's an elephant in the room that is being missed. That elephant is the effect of all of this discussion on young people, and indeed the effect---beginning with social media a decade ago---of information technology on young lives broadly speaking.
(3/7) I recently read an interview by Jill Lepore in which she reports on discussions that she had recently with a group of college students: "They had just three things to say. One, social media completely destroyed their childhoods. Two, AI is destroying their college education and their likely prospects for employment. And three, what the hell are we all doing?" To add a fourth bullet that I've heard in similar discussions: "I'm not going to have children, because the existential risk is just too high."
(4/7) Please contemplate such a statement, those of you who think that it's OK that the public, widely diffused, discussion coming from seemingly authoritative figures is so adamant about existential risk.
(5/7) Let me add that I have little interest in a debate about what "superintelligence" might mean, or whether we're currently seeing the emergence of superintelligence. For what it's worth, I would certainly agree that the solution of extremely challenging math problems (for example) exhibits a very impressive form of intelligence, although I would want to argue that such intelligence is impossible to dissociate from the collective of humans that provided data to the machine learning system (which itself has become a kind of collective).
(6/7) Such philosophical debates are entertaining and even important, but when they then head in the direction of "when such superintelligence emerges, there's a good chance that it will want to kill all humans", I say "science fiction". Again, I don't think that it's bad to consider such thoughts, but I strongly believe that it's bad for society, and especially young people, for such thoughts, unaccompanied by any serious real-world analysis, to become a dominant form of discourse of the era.
(7/7) We are damaging human lives, and the consequences of that damage will no doubt be a major theme of the next several decades.
Every engineer , every scientist, mathematician, physicist and every so called "intellectual" out there, open your ears again:
THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH.
AGI this and AGI that,
Replaces this replaces that
Everything is automated blah
Shut it.
