I thought, what if a Bayesian just watched the show and wanted to figure out the best strategy empirically. How many contests would they...

Of course. But that doesn't mean the mathematical objects are reality. Nor does it mean that the mapping in question has to be simple...

Of course, it's more than that; it manages to generate optimal outputs (from our perspective) for a very wide range of inputs. And it...

If that's the only requirement for "understanding," then your calculator also understands; you ask it for a calculation and it does it...

So we're 2 or 3 years away from knowing who's wrong, that's good.

I am continually impressed by how amazing the best footballers' balance is. They are so strong and solid that it's amazing. After a...

Good example. The Turing test is another case of a degenerate concept riddled with ambiguity. For example, ChatGPT passes the Turing...

I think that the opposite is actually happening. The Turing Test was originally a test to determine whether a machine could conduct a...

Mathematica does such computations quite easily.

You've given several good examples of why finite mathematics loses a lot of what we know as conventional mathematics. It's not just...

Which "top expert" are you referring to, and who do they work for? If they don't work for major AI companies, what are they trying to...

Do you not think there is a fairly large consensus among the top experts in the field that AGI/ASI will likely arrive within the next...
