Jeff Bezos Is Funding a Wild Hunt for the Brain’s ‘Core Algorithm’ With $500 million in funding and a reported $2.5 billion valuation, Flourish wants to reinvent AI by putting real neurons under the microscope.
haha this is the thread i didn't know i came here for
the Ten Commandments would be a great starting point (not all but some).
i think you missed "hubris" :)
This rejects any fixed, universal moral standards
uh did you have a counter proposal? i have a feeling i'm going to prefer claude's approach...
use dependabot with cooldown.
instead of making everyone watermark the AI, we should have cameras that take and sign pictures securely. requires hardware!

seems like a better way
Before xtrek and eventually netrek, there was hunt: https://techtinkering.com/2009/08/11/my-top-10-classic-text-... you might think that games back then were slow but this one was fast paced mayhem. using the vi commands was perfect.
Last, we deliberately focus on core cognitive capabilities rather than physical abilities such as motor skills or tactile sensing, as we seek to measure the capabilities of the mind rather than the quality of its actuators or sensors.
seems pretty unfair to exclude motor skills, especially given 1) how central they are to human economic activity, and 2) how moravec's paradox tells us they are the hard part.
who said "everyone" or did you make a strawman?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose%E2%80%93Lucas_argument
this actually puts it better:
The Penrose–Lucas argument about the implications of Gödel's incompleteness theorem for computational theories of human intelligence was criticized by mathematicians,[16][17][18][19] computer scientists,[20] and philosophers,[21][22][23][24][25] and the consensus among experts[7] in these fields is that the argument fails,[26][27][28] with different authors attacking different aspects of the argument.[28][29]
so, rejected by consensus. someone should update the book page so this expert rejection is clearer.
yup and his book was reviewed as such at the time. mention of the rejection of his theory by professional philosophers however keeps getting edited out of the wikipedia page. See this exchange on the talk page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:The_Emperor%27s_New_Mind
> "The book's thesis is considered erroneous by experts in the fields of philosophy, computer science, and robotics."
Wooooah, there. That's a massive accusation to add, unsourced, and without any discussion. There needs to be a source for this statement, not to mention an opposing view. It seems unlikely the guy would win an award for a book no one thinks is right. I'm deleting it unless someone comes up with a pretty good source. Joker1189 (talk) 20:43, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

yes and even more useful with a phone. or a TV so I don't have to find the remote. lots of possibilities beyond glasses.
Do you have any evidence or are you just going to go with repeating a bald-face lie?
surface!
not the same tech at all.
nope. the technology was invented by CTRL-labs, and at Meta after the acquisition.

yes the Myo was a similar, earlier, and less capable technology also based on EMG sensing.

the laws for music are different & much stricter than images.
just spirit!
couldn't agree more :) he is not alone :)
i'm working on a new one :)

fractal compression was always a scam.
Sunlight allows us to look (and kills bacteria). Unbanning accounts gives them a megaphone. Totally different.
agree, this is where i play now.

Neural Interfaces Research Infrastructure and Productionization
Reality Labs (FRL, part of Meta) is seeking a Software Engineer to help us unleash human potential by eliminating the bottlenecks between intent and action. To achieve this, we’re building a practical neural interface drawing on the rich motor neuron signals that can be measured non-invasively. Our research lies at the intersection of computational neuroscience, machine learning, signal processing, statistics, biophysics, motor learning, perceptual psychophysics, 3D interfaces, AR/VR and human-computer interaction. We’re looking for people who want to shape the future of this technology and are excited about joining our collaborative research team that has grown out of the acquisition of CTRL-labs.
interested? contact spot@draves.org
In this role, you will drive cutting edge research and development for our EMG machine learning platform; create new experiments and models that unlock the capabilities of our technology; productionize our research results, and work with scientists, software engineers, hardware engineers and designers to advance the company’s science and AR/VR agenda. To do so, you will need strong problem solving abilities, excellent communication skills, extensive programming experience, and a passion for efficient tools and systems.

actually the Electric Sheep has fractal flame animations designed by AI (a genetic algorithm not a neural network).
The news was that the sensor data was lost. This was in the headline and mentioned near the end, most of the article was indeed a survey.
