Abolish the value function!

Honestly you can scratch "trans" out of that sentence and it still applies. People talk about social issues like a job guarantee is "so last decade" even though WE NEVER GOT A FUCKING JOB GUARANTEE!

again, staying completely silent on the actual merits of ai, the initial ai boosters basically campaigned on "this will eliminate your job, forever, and make me personally rich." it should not surprise *anyone* that this provoked a backlash.

I remember the bit in Eren's dad's Big Reveal Journal about how his first son was convinced to sell out their family, and how he blames himself for "forcing his own beliefs onto his son" and, like, the belief he forced on his son was "we deserve to Have Rights."

There’s a long-standing, congressionally chartered organization responsible for the semiquincentennial. Trump abandoned that, created his own thing, and is using it as another vector of bribery etc. Below are the corporations that have signed onto do some bribin’.

A good puzzle game and a good technical textbook are structured exactly the same way. Introduce a concept. Explore the boundaries of the concept with the simplest elicitation. Explore its interaction with each previous concept. Every puzzle/exercise should have a small epiphany.

this is such a great encapsulation of what the various factions of the reactionary right want. i might add that they envision themselves as slave masters and the rest of us, in one way or another, as their slaves.

And I can tell you, as a former Republican, that the GOP counts on that, and actively promotes cultural hot-button issues to bait Democrats into fighting among themselves. Works like a charm.

Correction: not just an “R1 STEM” lab- any academic science research lab anywhere. Pitching ideas, doing experiments, and publishing results isn’t just an R1 thing

Being pro-capitalist and pro-democracy is incoherent with democratic principles. Also, liberalism is not inherently pro-capitalist. Anti-capitalist liberalism is more consistent than pro-capitalist liberalism.

Here is the specific link to our paper with Eunice Yiu, Shiry Ginosar and Kelsey Allen, how to construct causal models through intrinsically motivated action, something kids do and LLMs don't. The whole issue on world models is very much worth reading.

Abstract. Learning about the causal structure of the world is a fundamental problem for human cognition. Causal models and especially causal learning have

There's a close family resemblance between "We'd be much less productive if we actually had to check every paper we cited" and "We'd not be able to deport nearly as many people if we had to give all of them due process."

No, this is far from the truth. As someone who as an undergrad, PhD student and early postdoc thought I knew everything: The skillset and depth of subfield knowledge required to run a R1 STEM lab are high. The real skill research faculty bring is coaching and scientific judgement. 🧪 1/

Still not quite over the fact that I'm watching anti-IP/anti-copyright people who defended the 15 year olds getting sued for millions now cheering on laws and judicial decisions that will absolutely lead to more 15 year olds getting sued for millions.

Historically, the judiciary has been a remarkably reactionary institution. The Warren Court was an anomaly. The New Deal Court only came around after it was threatened after striking down all kinds of policies enacted by FDR and Congress. Also, see Korematsu.
