Previously unseen details of human brain structure revealed. Featured image: a single neuron with ~5,600 of the nerve fibers that connect to it. I feel overwhelming awe at nature's complexity and order. https://t.co/lLiEo6z1YQ https://t.co/bq8jtGCvWC

Proposed so far: - applied effective altruism - free energy principle - attention is all you need - against decadence >< for degrowth - accelerationism / time to build - cliodynamics - great polarisation - Simulation / AGI / transhumanism Excellent thread, taking notes! https://t.co/vhrwgArwLe

We misunderstand what makes a “good” school. A school that intakes students in the top 0.5% and outputs students who are in top 0.5% isn’t a good school. It’s just the students who are good. A good school intakes in students in the top 50% and outputs students in the top 5%.

When I left @OpenAI a little over a year ago, I signed a non-disparagement agreement, with non-disclosure about the agreement itself, for no other reason than to avoid losing my vested equity. (Thread)

I was reading 2023 Nobel laureate Katalin Kariko's book, Breaking Through. She was brutally honest about the academic system in US. And, here is an example section from her book. https://t.co/uU3Os6qTPr

These models have no understanding of what they're reading and saying -- with correspondingly unreliable, sometimes comical results. Yet, they're optimized to sound as knowledgeable and authoritative as possible. Not a good combination.

Startups are betting against AGI.

Observing the development of cognition in infants and toddlers is still our best window into the nature of human intelligence

Most of my academic friends know me for my work in generative AI, image and video diffusion models, vision and language, even fairness. But I don’t often talk about my passion for AI applications in fashion — which shaped my PhD thesis, and a good portion of my industry career. https://t.co/JSdUscQpUP

“the time will pass anyways” has rewritten my brain and it’s a random comment on a tiktok https://t.co/cArWsgREZD https://t.co/o3olmwbjLi

To all OpenAI employees, I want to say: Learn to feel the AGI. Act with the gravitas appropriate for what you're building. I believe you can "ship" the cultural change that's needed. I am counting on you. The world is counting on you. :openai-heart:

Building a tech startup feels like trying to get a PhD and an MBA at the same time. In a given day I’ll swap between code, white papers, marketing copy, and sales/support calls. Generalist dream job

there’s a genre of phrases that sound like they’re from the bible or like paradise lost, but really, really aren’t. like “there are cathedrals everywhere for those with the eyes to see” which is ofc a jordan peterson tweet about a bottle of evian. what are the others?

In 2020 my neighbor got a piano. I would hear her at 6am every few days. It was brutal the first year yall Today in 2024, I woke up to her playing a Concerto. I want to cry, please keep trying. What an honor it has been to hear this journey

Yes, I went to college for Music Composition and dropped out and taught myself software and now I’ve been at SpaceX for nearly 6 years and I’m a Lead Software Engineer. Again, high school degree only. https://t.co/YqIw7FOXeQ

if you gaslight yourself into thinking that your smart enough to figure something out, you will, eventually, figure it out

Was at a conference recently where Sal khan talked about the ai tutors they’re building They showed a lot of examples like this one where they can create bots that help kids learn at a pace they’re comfortable with and analogies that might help them without giving the answer… https://t.co/IZTNboki2x

There is an insane amount of talented people quote tweeting this with their work Take some time to scroll through and support 🙏 🎨 🎮

Today's openai event was not the blockbuster it was hyped to be (model improvements welcome). Still, folks will be deeply disappointed if Google Assistant and Siri don’t match today’s demo going forward. If Google/Apple continues doing nothing, they are handing the assistants… https://t.co/9kkiwU4vRl
