Chapter 1 – Aliens offered to buy the United States and maintain it and world citizens.They only want to eliminate disease, crime, pollution and inefficient energy technologies. So that visitors can safely tour and interact. They have bought many underdeveloped planets before and routinely “flip” them as a transition to “the Universal” as they call

In global open collaborative sites, the AI rules require lossless recording of all actions – human and AI.

Michael Nielsen @michael_nielsen A very good passage. “Who owns a technology?” is often a very complicated question twitter.com/curiouswavefn/… Quote Ash Jogalekar @curiouswavefn This passage from “Disturbing the Universe” perfectly illustrates Freeman Dyson’s unique gifts and wisdom in being able to combine insights into science with insights into human beings, in this case Oppenheimer and Teller.

Follow Users, not developers

Carlos E. Perez @IntuitMachine OpenAI just came out with their Prompt Engineering guide: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/prompt-engineering Replying to @IntuitMachine The AI groups are only trying to extend dependency on their solutions, and indirectly on their development tool suppliers. Those benefit from NOT creating true AIs. They make money by working at AI, not supporting AIs that work

Quantum components cost for specific problems with specified engineering noise requirements

Chae-Yeun Park @chae_yeun_park I feel that our recent preprint https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.07658 has not gained enough interest, so I want to advertise it a bit. We proved that computing the output distribution is #P-hard for dynamics generated by a wide class of Hamiltonians, including the Ising, XX, Heisenberg models. Replying to @chae_yeun_park If you randomly sample your

The usual lossy images from NASA

World and Science @WorldAndScience Astonishing: The James Webb Space Telescope captures the rare moment just before a star’s death in pin-sharp detail. (Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, Webb ERO Production Team) https://pic.twitter.com/ofXtCVflZj Replying to @WorldAndScience The usual from “NASA” – lossy images, no meta data, no provenance, no links, very little scientific or educational value.

3 Billion humans not on the Internet might be a good thing

Interesting Engineering @IntEngineering Approximately 3 billion people globally lack internet access, a gap companies like Starlink and Astranis aim to fill. Starlink uses numerous Low Earth Orbit satellites to provide internet, but it’s expensive and faces connectivity issues due to the rapid movement of satellites. https://pic.twitter.com/nj5nXlNJQg Replying to @IntEngineering Thank you for sharing this. I

The AI is just a proxy for its owners, developers and community.

Aran Komatsuzaki @arankomatsuzaki TinyGSM: achieving >80% on GSM8k with small language models A duo of a 1.3B generation model and a 1.3B verifier model can achieve 81.5% accuracy, outperforming existing models that are orders of magnitude larger https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.09241 https://pic.twitter.com/a3gpu36hFw Replying to @arankomatsuzaki On life-critical global issues, 99.999% is required.

They are going to have to be given the meanings and parameters of the many acronyms you used. You
