Nice to be in robotics while everyone else is going crazy over language models

Are there use cases of GenAI people like that isn't generic AI slop? I've found short stories narrated on YouTube good if the content I written by humans and if the voiceover is good but bad if the stories are AI generated.

Yeah category error. The traditions I study don't consider intelligence to be the ineffable mystery but consciousness or sunyata or nirguna Brahman. Intelligence in traditions like yoga are hardly mentioned maybe under name and form and considered the outer layers of the mind I believe.

Huh I didn't realize paprika is chili that got adapted by Hungarians. It's amazing how the peoples of the world adapt plants to their local environment.

How does feed ranking work here? Without algorithmic ranking does that mean one has to have a separate account for each topic?

Why are some LLMs better at chess than others Part 1: dynomight.net/chess/ Part 2: dynomight.net/more-chess/

Something weird is happening with LLMs and chess
are they good or bad?

We've released our paper "Generating 3D-Consistent Videos from Unposed Internet Photos"! Video models like Luma generate pretty videos, but sometimes struggle with 3D consistency. We can do better by scaling them with 3D-aware objectives. 1/N page: genechou.com/kfcw

Our upcoming SIGGRAPH Asia paper explores refining 3D shapes using text descriptions. For example, we transform the spheres and cylinders on the left into a detailed teddy bear! 🧸 Read on for more details in the thread! 👇

I don't like lists because it constrains people to only post on one topic. I hope they come up with some other mechanism for feeds that doesn't have this herding behavior.

This might only make sense under different axioms from physicalism such as yogachara mind only schools or Kastrup's analytic idealism where the brain is an organ of perception rather than a generator for consciousness.

I have sort of a related goal of exploring inner worlds using these models. For example the fire kasina phenomenology of the Theravada described in the Visudhimagga can be explored with a model of convolutional neural networks instead of biology. It's all a kind of psycho cosmology.

I like not skating where the puck is heading, be in strategic spaces is another alternative so whoever has the puck can redirect it to you when the time comes.

I am new to this platform too but it is built upon open protocols so in principle there might be something in the docs on how to run your own server and feed ranking. I don't know but the at protocol site is here atproto.com

Fascinating, Egyptian mythology combined with ideas of void. Reminds me of Josephine McCarthy 's concept of the abyss with all kinds of ancient beings in it.

The grand plan to regress the brain, which according to @tyrellturing.bsky.social, is working just fine. So is this what understanding the brain means? The better the ANN fits the brain data the more we understand the brain?

I think it was more the application. VLIW processors seemed to be more useful in specialized applications like multimedia. These days vector processors are dominant for AI stuff.

Homotopy type theory and law crafting are weirdly similar to exploring non dual mystical states via self and other duality. It's like the inside is fractally similar to the outside as claimed by some traditions due to one's consciousness experiencing both.

Huh logged on and Windows was pushing for me to use an NPU which I thought was funny and followed up and TIL that Windows has ARM chips! Snapdragon X elite. Amazing! Last time I was running Windows on a non x86 arch was probably Dec Alpha or Intel Itanium.

Curious to learn what research is looking like at Meta these days. Seems that most other places are shutting down research. I’d like to think that this means we will be stagnate once LLMs hit any nontrivial wall. Thoughts welcome on this too.

The funny device I am swimming with in my background image is an underwater robot with a stereo camera pair that I was using to estimate the biomass of seagrass in the lovely area of Lubuan Bajo, Indonesia. It looked janky because customs held up our flotation rig and we had to improvise.

Hello new friends! My day job is a research lead in machine learning on population dynamics, public health and climate. However I am also doing a grad degree in contemplative arts so I might sometimes write about machine learning and then some random mystic practice from an ancient text FYI.
