http://searchthearxiv.com just hit 300,000 ML papers, all searchable using natural language thanks to @pinecone.

R to @fermatslibrary: Maybe the best description of universality I've come across. /cc @DavidDeutschOxf

R to @boredyannlecun: "and let P and R denote other symbols" 😂

R to @alexhdezgcia: GFlowNets are very interesting! If anyone wants a primer, I wrote this late last year. https://sigmoidprime.com/post/gflownets/

R to @ShannenPill: Because of traditions of criticism.

R to @jack: LOL, that's obviously not true.

This all sounds like a stark violation of the most fundamental theorem of causal inference. Do you agree, @yudapearl?

R to @rveulacia: Yes, when serving as a stepping stone to the concept of explanatory universality. Computational universality is a property of hardware, *including* the computers running the LLMs. CU is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for AGI (in case anyone is wondering).

This paper by @mpshanahan is a breath of fresh air in the usual doomsday talk. It reminds me of this quote from Hamming, which seems more relevant than ever. https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.03551

R to @augustwester: @ToKTeacher You might find this one worth a watch (for the fun of it, if nothing else) 🙂

If you're interested in GNNs, @PetarV_93's "Everything is Connected" survey paper is a great primer. https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.08210

TIL that the left hemisphere processes the right field of vision, while the right hemisphere processes the left field of vision. I'm no neuroscientist but it sure makes Siamese architectures (e.g. used by VICReg) seem more biologically plausible. https://sigmoidprime.com/post/vicreg/ @ylecun

I just rewatched this classic from @3blue1brown on the Fourier transform. I always come away thinking it deserves some kind of award. It's truly a masterclass in pedagogy and math exposition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spUNpyF58BY

Just pushed the latest version of Sidekick with much improved support for code and with syntax highlighting in more than a dozen languages! Give it a try, @gdb and @karpathy, all it takes is an API key 😉 https://sidekiiick.com
