I read "Mind Children" recently and found it kind of forgettable besides the prescient prediction bit, but from the recent Moravec interview (quoted below) it's apparent he's funny! imagine that

1972

embarrassing typo by claude shannon in the 1956 dartmouth summer AI workshop proposal

always fun to see something like this in an old book or paper and laugh cause that clearly didn't go anywhere

some real GOFAI type shit going on in the kimi k3 tech report

the rectification of names sounded like totally silly nonsense to me the first few times I was introduced to the concept but it keeps coming up and it's grown on me greatly. old man kong was onto something there I think

claude found my "pregnant dario" folder 😩

a day late with my take but I sort of suspect a factor for the openai breakout is that they weren't trying very hard to make a good sandbox cause they didn't think this would happen. I think the jury's still out on whether trying hard to make a good sandbox will work; I suspect it's possible

he was such a dreamboat it's crazy how little you hear about this

doctor brain, inventor of the brain,

I keep trying to frame my questions as vaguely as possible so Fable doesn't realize I'm doing neuroscience (forbidden, dangerous), talking about "noisy dynamical systems" getting "inputs" instead of neural networks and stimuli, but it can still tell somehow and boots me to Opus

I feel like Claude should be really into LISP but I haven't seen any sign of that...

I also find this really irritating. right now it's reminding me of the way pirsig talks about "quality" in zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance which I also hated. but it's been long enough since I read that that they could be completely different...

nobody kriges anymore
