ong this is the funniest shit i've seen in a while, pls be real

Careful David, if you deny that rocks (and therefore the moon) are conscious, you might make them angry.

but I do believe brains are computers, but only in the broadest sense of what computation could be

Agree. A human brain is capable of executing the steps of a TM with pen/paper, and in that sense the brain is absolutely capable of acting as a computer. But as far as all the other process a brain does (breathing/maintaining heart rate/etc.) describing that as 'a computer' seems such an abuse of notation as to render the original definition meaningless. We might as well call the moon a computer since it is 'calculating' the effect of a gravitational field on a moon sized object. What I think many people are really claiming when they say a brain is a computer is that if only we could identify the correct finite state deterministic program, there would be no difference between the brain and its implementation in silicon. Personally, I find claims of substrate independence to be less plausible, but of course many of our dear friends are willing to bite that bullet.

what are you on? The brain is clearly a series of pipes that water flows through

Strange, they didn't count the number of utils I get by voting for Kamala just to make these bastards mald

Azure/AWS/other cloud computing services that host these models are absolutely going to continue to make money hand over fist. But if the bottleneck is the infrastructure, then what's the point of paying an entire team of engineers 650K a year each to recreate a model that's qualitatively equivalent to an open-source model?

Tim cook is an absolute hustler

Like a model trained on its own outputs, Geoff has drank his own Kool-Aid and completely decohered.

I'd never leave Donkey Kong, unless I found someone with 33.3 % (repeating of course) more funk, some sort of funky Kong if you will.
