Bryan Johnson sold his company to PayPal for $800 million in 2013. Since then, he's been investing millions to reduce aging. In 2021, he reduced his epigenetic age by 5.1 years in 7 months (World Record) Here’s a breakdown of his “Blueprint” and my own experience with it: 🧵 https://t.co/igFya5JLiz

Studying Machine Learning has become a lot easier these 4 new AI tools: 1. Elicit to find research (https://t.co/zJMTz0XUSz) 2. ExplainPaper to understand (https://t.co/yHePclmY3e) 3. Summari for articles (https://t.co/CIPYRurC7b) 4. Spaces for demos (https://t.co/iZJFnC5l1J)

In a new article published today in Nature MI @NatMachIntell we solved a differential equation that describes the interaction of neurons and synapses! This equation had no known closed-form solution since the year 1907! This solution is important! 1/n https://t.co/53qU76Ewrq https://t.co/N1FCbrYM1M

🧵 to clarify my views on AGI, timelines, and x-risk. TL;DR: My AGI timelines are short-ish (within two decades with things getting weird soon) and I think x-risk is real, but I think probabilities of doom by AGI instrumentally opting to kill us are greatly exaggerated. 1/

During my PhD defence, my external examiner said that my thesis was 'the best illustrated thesis I have ever examined' 🎨 I really enjoy illustration and I believe it makes the content a lot more accessible ☺️ Here are some of my favourite illustrations from it... https://t.co/qsxjj5gJAE

2025: you use Neuralink to train XGBoost directly from your brain. 2030: XGBoost uses Neuralink to train your brain. 2035: XGBoost is your brain.

Soon, Google Search as we know it now will be 100% obsolete. "Neural search engines" will 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 to give us direct answers rather than explicitly querying a database of indexed webpages. LLM training is equivalent to the construction of large, implicit knowledge graphs. https://t.co/lR30AuGfZx
