In terms of the #evolution of the #human brain, #language is a very recent cognitive acquistion.
Other #GreatApes seem to have most of the hallmarks of intelligence we have: a sense of #self, #tool use, even forms of #culture and #politics. (1/4)
Only just hit me that among all the other things going on with it, #GalaxyQuest could be considered a stealth remake of #ThreeAmigos.

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

Washington DC has become a sanctuary city for men who rape children. Not one of them faces a real threat of prosecution with the child-raping senile fascist dictator running the city. Trump is a pedo protector because he also raped children.

Release Epstein's files and prove me wrong.

I can’t believe I’m still having to talk about newsom jfc. It should have been over the minute he said he was 100% aligned with Charlie Kirk on trans issues, and if not then then the minute he agreed with Steve Bannon that trans people should be banned from transitioning under age 26. Ffs

Furthermore, reducing language to algorithms would be a necessary but still quite insufficient hurdle to clear, to create AGI.
I'll invite anyone who thinks AGI is possible to answer this question: why do you believe that language use can be reduced to mathematical algorithms? What evidence exists for this claim?

(LLMs ain't it; their irreducible tendency to hallucinate is in fact evidence for my position.)

Any Republican or Democrat who continues to support Palantir, takes money from them, or refuses to hold them accountable is not your friend and should not be supported.

Essentially, they're taking the approach of 'Reverse Prompt Engineering' combined with Flooding the Zone, which I'm sure will work out great. 😑

l love this crazy show, but not sure how I feel about the undeath of the shady, sinister bisexual trope.

Anyway I absolutely do not buy for one second that Yasmin never did anything gay at school, so I'm assuming there's a lot of denial and defensiveness behind her blowup.

That's our Yaz! 🙄
