karpathy says we’re a decade away from AGI, because we don’t yet know how to make systems learn continuously. the deeper problem is that we’ve built this entire field on metaphors, not mechanics. we keep saying AI can think, reason, remember, create. but those are human verbs,…

Everyone posting about the Dwarkesh interview (including Dwarkesh himself!) is missing this subtle point. When LLMs imitate, they imitate the ACTION (ie the token prediction to produce the sequence). When humans imitate, they imitate the OUTPUT but must discover the action

Dwarkesh and I had a frank exchange of views. I hope we moved the conversation forward. Dwarkesh is a true gentleman.

.@RichardSSutton, father of reinforcement learning, doesn’t think LLMs are bitter-lesson-pilled. My steel man of Richard’s position: we need some new architecture to enable continual (on-the-job) learning. And if we have continual learning, we don't need a special training…

The Neocognitron was trainable, but not via backpropagation. It used analogue threshold units, not ReLU, sigmoid, or tanh. CNNs became scalable and trainable with backpropagation, notably through LeNet.


Aji Ghose reposted

True, but these CNNs were not trainable. AFAIK @ylecun is the one training CNNs for the first time.

If Claude is really doing so much of the coding for Anthropic, why haven't they used it to create a fucking ui for Claude Code? It's 2025. Why the fuck am I forced to use a cli for everything as if it were 1995?

Out last week in @cogsci_soc! @samhforbes and I ”urge extreme caution in the use of LLMs in classrooms lest we further normalize: pupils losing their privacy, reducing contact between learner and educator, deskilling teachers & polluting the environment”‼️ PDF/DOI links below.

Yes I can; as can you. But I'm primarily interested in what's widely available in the community, where a single 4090 GPU machine is already a very rich investment. Remember also that 3090s were the last consumer card with nvlink, so 4090 and 5090 cards aren't good at multi gpu

Neural networks don’t have to be distilled into other neural networks. They can be distilled into decision trees or sets of rules. And then interpretability becomes dramatically easier.

Can we enhance interoception by controlling the heart? Thrilled to share our new study, led by @AshleyTyrer, where we use computational modeling to show that blockading peripheral noradrenaline uniquely alters awareness of heart rate & breathing! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵👇
