Doing night three of The Hinton Lectures (TM). Likely with a lot of the usual #AIGS suspects.

After having been spoiled all day by the best intermission music in science (feat @p-hunermund.com at #CDSM25), I’m somewhat assaulted by the light Canadian hotel jazz for the pre-show.

Packed! Great pre-event networking, lots of usual suspects, including #AIGS ers.

The music … is very 1980’s Canadian game show bumper … Guests of the Hinton Lectures stay at the Plaza Downtown Lakeview Hotel.

Down at the centre of the Universe for The Hinton Lectures.

Back at Shopify tonight. 10th floor. AI Tinkerers is good one, grassroots, quite a few serious builders come out.

Too soon for this. November 9. WTF.

Using probes!

We’re catching a light lecture at the Innovation Campus, South Park Commons.

Also it’s 5:30 and pitch dark.

Soon.

At Blue Jays Way (and that’s a for real street name, not honourary!) at Wellington.

Toronto Street is the New Yorkiest of all the Toronto Streets.

Happy Friday Friends.

We’re at CIBC-Simplii (on Bay Street) tonight for AI Tinkerers. Which is a lot of fun. Mostly builders and devs out. Lots of usual suspects. Lots of people using multiple models for different use cases. Polygoats.

It’s the usual suspects oot and aboot on the Martin Goodman Trail.

Constructive!

“If you asked us, we’d recommend augmenting humans for make them smarter, smart enough to get is out of this mess.”

Banger!

“The more complicated the gameboard, the more advantage to the player with more knowledge and more intelligence and more understanding of the game.”

Even the rhetorical structure oozes.

Good afternoon, from the centre of the maple universe (TM)

ITT: Initial thoughts.

I’m with BACSA tonight at the U of T - along with a few AI Collective folks. It’s a pretty nice space. Super well organized.

9 degrees but I can still hear birdsong.

Go local sports team.

Nice feature at metro centre.

And the city gets Bathurst back. That was an incredible run. I loved the Bathurst Segment. Did I ever suffer that last km. Thanks to the organizers and the tear down crews! What a run!

Nice feature of the Blue Corral is to stand on Yonge and the Square. The air is too still here. That’ll lead to a few decisions.

It’s the Bathurst segment that I’m thirsting for. Legs are still fresh and I’m still smiling before the MGT and the slope at the Legion.

Victor emphasizes how predictable and stable Ontario is. “We follow the rule of law.”

Yes.

Doing Builder Sunday. Fascinating afternoon. Interesting demos.

In the background I can see the birthplace of the Milan School and the foreground, the most common play surface for the Milanese to romp. Just great.

Nuit Blanche at The Well is extra loopy. Beautiful.

And my version of #measurecamp ends in a blur, in room temperature outdoor air. Thanks everybody! What a day!
