I don’t understand why it’s such a common argument that it’s ok for AI to be bad at something because humans are also bad at it. Imagine if we were satisfied with computers that could do math at the same speed as a human or that had the same amount of memory as a human.
Is it that TikTok's recommendation feed is that much better than anyone else's, or is it just that TikTok has more fresh, original content?
It’s very sad that Elon Musk has decided to spend less time as the CEO of many important companies and instead spend more time being a clone of Ian Miles Cheong
The more I learn about and practice statistics, the more I think it is the most interesting and most philosophical subject. Doing statistics means being faced with the impossibility of true knowledge, and yet still searching for the shadow of knowledge. Beautiful.
It is very hard to make any rigorous arguments about anything in AI. This is a frustrating because it allows for a lot of unrigorous speculation that’s hard to prove/disprove. At the same time it’s also very fun because the field is wide open and new ideas can come from anywhere.

Honestly, this is based. Just focus on the work, nothing else matters.
When I was younger, I had heroes, people I looked up to. As time has gone on, I have been inevitably disappointed by all of them. In the end, I see that nobody’s perfect; that’s ok, take the good from others, and leave the rest. And embrace yourself, as flawed as you too are.
Gaza-based journalist Akram al-Satarri has just returned from Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, where Palestinians are still uncovering more bodies, many with evidence of torture or summary execution. "The three different mass graves are containing around 700 bodies," he says.
Is fashion important / should it be important
Tao Lin longtermism arc begins…
I never actually read any Daniel Dennett. Any recommendations on what I should read?
Make sure to review Kant’s rules for dinner parties so that you’re ready to celebrate his 300th birthday on Monday
Coding is not going to become obsolete. You should still learn to code, and you should encourage your friends to do it too. Learn to code. It’s useful, it’s not going away.
I’m building an eval to test the capability of LLMs to generate new knowledge. To this end, I’ve made 100 major breakthroughs in science and mathematics, and put them all in a hidden test set. Let’s see if the LLM can come up with them too!
This discourse about the functional form of AI progress doesn’t make any sense. Scaling laws don’t tell you anything about the rate of capability increase, only perplexity. E.g. the capability jump from .92 -> .90 perplexity might be >>> that from 1.02 -> 1.0, or it could be ≈.
Taylor+Matty was a terrible match but a great synergistic situation otherwise that created so much good content, tying the Taylor Swift universe with the Red Scare / cum town universe, bringing in Ice Spice for no reason, resulting in a new Taylor album, wins for all sides.

my opinions on Freud and Freudian psychoanalysis are a direct inverse to the opinions of those I’m speaking to. On one hand if I hear “Freud🥺” I’m like “well, consider…” but on the other if I hear “Freud👿” it’s like “empirically verify this dick brother”

dogs are fine but most people shouldn't have them. They don't have the time nor interest in properly taking care of the dog and a lot of them are very maladjusted. Anyway the real story about dogs is that they're child replacements symbolically representing societal suicide.
The real threat to LLM chatbots isn't that adoption levels have stalled -- greater capabilities could reignite adoption. It's the fact that 1.5 years of massive investments haven't resulted in meaningfully better models, that would make a real difference in adoption potential.
always thought it a weird coincidence that the two most famous counter-cultural rock musicians of 1980s' USSR & China were both ethnic Koreans with the surname (Choi 崔/Цой). Songs like 一无所有 and Перемен were similar in the way they expressed their generation's dissatisfaction
