“Life is how information structures matter across space and time. Life is simple machines constructing more complex machines. Life is the physics of existence,it’s the mechanism the universe has to explore the space of what's possible.” - Prof S Walker
‘The nature of the human motivational & subjective value system is that gratification & gravitation are towards the best things on large scales which doesn’t translate to what’s best on the smaller scales.The key to aesthetics is surprising fulfillment of expectation.’ Thoughts from Prof B Goertzel on The Lex Fridman podcast. Episode 103 titled: General Intelligence Dated: June 22 2020
‘The key is to create decentralizing mechanisms for all technology that is aligned with human compassion.’ -Thoughts from Prof B Goertzel
AGI will perceive and experience time very differently to humans. What can be a second to the human mind, will seem like eternity to it. One of my fears is that we engineer an aligned AGI with humanity but scare it off because of our stupidity for time wasting.
Reminder Technology is a tool that helps us expand our ways of perceiving and understanding the world. ❤️
2025/12/14 Synchronicity Was chatting to a friend online and we decided to stream a movie together while messaging in real time. She chose the film & she’d never seen it before. Themes we had spoken about earlier began playing out on screen.
2025/12/15 Synchronicity Read 3 different books & encountered the same underlying ideas of preventing infinite regression or endless loops: routers forwarding data packets toward an endpoint,well-ordered math principles preventing processing ad infinitum & the halting problem in Turing machines.
“Even the very wise cannot see all ends.” - Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring.
“The origin of life is yet to be discovered, and after nearly four billion years of evolution, our biosphere is now emerging a technosphere that may have sufficient intelligence to solve its own origin.” - Prof S. Walker
Starlink has over 10 000 satellites in orbit now. Creating an unstoppable decentralized mesh communication network for data & information exchange between peers. Are you paying attention Anon?
‘There is lots of confusion around knowledge & the process to gain it. What are LLM’s doing with language? Remember that human language is the result of data compression. It is the code we learned to represent the knowledge we gain through our physical senses of the external 🌍 .Through billions of years of evolution, our brains process represents knowledge. We use language to encode our common knowledge grounded by our senses. These LLM’s are using text to further compress knowledge to identify their statistical internal structures. We incorrectly compare LLM’s compressing raw data, statistical relations & stacking low dimensional data structures to our thinking process, senses & knowledge for understanding data. Humans have been compressing data for eons & the ability to abstract is emergent.’ Insights from Professor Yi Ma on The Machine Learning Street Talk podcast discussing the mathematical foundations of intelligence.
The average person takes it for granted, but isn’t it mind bending to ponder on the possibilities of alternative universes & different worlds that can exist within a computer🤗
