nagel's lesser known work

wait is claude 4.7/10 or 4.7/5?

crafted with care and dedication to the form

chrome omnisearchbar shows "transhumanism for octopuses" with search completions for "...octopuses pdf" and "...octopuses book"

That says something

+speed!

searching for existing things and trying them out costs time and tokens that could be better spent reimplementing from scratch

(if you can correctly discern which things are easy and which are hard/worth it to reimplement from scratch)

ok phew I thought for a second it was dwarkesh who was off-form

yea he attributed it to someone else but its a technique he lists in Intuition Pumps and Other Tools, and he’s generally quite generous and careful

for team reproducers:
- bsky ios app
- built in keyboard tts button
- I don’t believe I have any special settings or anything
- it occasionally also shows up as “unsupported clipboard content”

good luck and thank you!

maybe in the spirit of dan dennett we should begin by listing all our shared points of agreement:

- benn is clearly really cool
- the video is a top notch piece of youtube content
- some data centers esp. colossus are doing local damage, including:
- sounds from data centers harming health

it actually reproduces rather easily

don’t know why this is happening

he drove what looks to be upwards of 20 hrs I’d say this is a hundred hour production

I think Bluesky included a weird text to speech artifact as an image? very odd

I guess the worst that I can say about Andy is that Kelsey Piper might have found a way to make friends with Benn along the way

calling your rhetorical opponents shills and bots: check

accusing them of misrepresenting the studies you (generously) misinterpreted: check

does that cat have wings?

I might also run and hide if I’d been taken down so thoroughly

@tk0l.bsky.social maintains a set of “atomic tweets” like the atoms from which all tweets are composed of, the building blocks by which a quote-reply-only posting experience could be formed

this is very useful if you like looking at our cool ass galaxy

interviewers have a severe deficit of the childlike spirit

what was he looking for?

link shared in the other thread too!

maybe the lesson is we should all be more diligent in reading austin vernon

adam sandler vs nick cage

this one is good for fellow babies like me, very much focused on intuition building, very little theory or prep for other textbooks

feels like its for kids, which, maybe is good

possible is different from efficient

“free range non-gmo compute” has its place, but its unphysical to ignore the efficiency of having lots of compute sit in a building thats optimized for its health and performance

feel better!

AI 2047

but also (presuming the models stay aligned and uhhh the normal world mostly continues)

steel and other parts are pretty hard to ramp super fast I think? and cars and robots etc have a lot of parts

circling back to this:
- 8 is a big year range
- even if new cars offer starting in say 2035, it takes a decade or two for the old cars to cycle off the roads

is the model sensitive to number of cars in total or mostly to the % of av?
