Publishing by itself does little to advance science

I strongly disagree. Publishing advances science the same way communication advances culture. Imagine Einstein didn't published any of his work. How many decades back in technology and quality of life we'd have been now?

It's like any evolutionary beneficial trait gets transferred to all population in one generation instead of many. It saves precious time.

I guess AI is the next thing that's still opt-in now, will be opt-out tomorrow and then no-escape. It would be interesting to read a nostalgic thread from 2070...

GPT-4o 2 years ago

Secrets are either written down somewhere and end up on the Internet, or forgotten.

This doesn't seem to consider or give insight on any tradeoffs involved.

Also, the underlying extension, HypoPG, doesn't seem to collect any statistics on data to influence query planner.

this basically comes down to State Actors ... or Everyone Else

This is oversimplification if not misleading. There are also Bad Guys (who aren't state actors), who usually can't reach for your data. But occasionally they can, when rare Planet Parades like Heartbleed or Meltdown make the news. And they are happy to use this one-in-a-lifetime chance to sell access to your data to everyone else.

On the other hand, the main practical feature of a language is its astronomical SNR, which brain waves lack, to say the least. This allows LLMs to be trained on texts instead of millions of live people. Just imagine the number of parameters and compute resources required for the model to be useful to more than one human.
