Post-AGI, there will be a niche group of humans who pursue knowledge by attempting to study and teach the discoveries of AI. They will never catch up to the AI, but it will be a fun and possibly dignified way to live.
if large math models work (it seems like they will, so far), its going to be strange to have a bunch of previously unsolved theorems proven while quite possibly having no human who can read the model-Lean-ese proofs to actually know how the proofs work
Deciding when to inline functions in a compiler seems like a perfect opportunity to apply RL, since current approaches are heuristic and seemingly half-assed attempts at hand-crafting a policy.
SF ruined me because I assumed all these ads were for an AI search engine.


ChatGPT is quite decent at interpreting assembly / acting as a disassembler.
Before hiring a contractor, ask them how they keep track of how much you owe them and how much you've paid so far. The answer should be clear and simple (e.g. "I use a spreadsheet"). It should NOT be "I have a bunch of different versions of a doc in iCloud".
If the whole "put a fake bug in the urinal" thing works, why aren't there fake bugs in every urinal now that it's years later? Seems to me like nudge theory is either BS or impractical for various reasons?
I'm starting to believe that ExitStack() is a code smell.
Happy national wife day to the best wife ever, @thesamnichol. Our time together has been the best years of my life.
