One unanticipated and underappreciated outcome of the current AI bubble is that it is now hip to argue online about the #philosophy of mind. I am so here for it.

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT.
CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open.
DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open.
CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are.
DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

Remember when "offshoring" was the hot buzzword in software development? Much offshoring failed due to poor communication and low quality. Now we think we can outsource entire systems to chatbots with no accountability? Yeah, no.

My lab, at Karolinska, in Stockholm, is looking for a PhD student with a computational/quantitative background to work on probabilistic/generative models of proteins (structure and sequence). The research will involve methods development, and applications in vaccine design.

AI without the ability to interact with our world will fail to understand our world.

One of the fun things about doing a PhD in applied #machinelearning is that suddenly, I can read math.

RAG can make AI models riskier and less reliable, new research shows
According to Bloomberg's AI researchers, the increasingly popular framework can vastly increase your chances of getting dangerous answers. What can you do?

Fans of #agenticAI: what is the upside in feeding deterministic, real-world API outputs into an #LLM that is prone to hallucinate? Why would any mission critical application want to swap out a deterministic workflow for a non-deterministic one? Someone who understands it better, please explain.

Academic? You’re just a cash-hamster spinning a publisher’s profit wheel
I contend that publishing articles in nearly all peer-reviewed journals amounts to a form of intellectual slavery. I defend my use of the word ‘slavery’ here, for how else would you describe a busi…

The newest and most powerful A.I. technologies — so-called reasoning systems from companies like OpenAI, Google and the Chinese start-up DeepSeek — are generating more errors, not fewer. As their math skills have notably improved, their handle on facts has gotten shakier.
A.I. Hallucinations Are Getting Worse, Even as New Systems Become More Powerful
A new wave of “reasoning” systems from companies like OpenAI is producing incorrect information more often. Even the companies don’t know why.

I keep seeing the claim that LLMs "will only get better". How? These models are increasingly trained on AI outputs, which leads to model collapse. The only solutions I have seen to this problem involve data curation, which runs into serious scalability issues. Am I missing something? #AI #LLM #ML
