“watching how a human toddler learns about the world”

I have several family members with kids now and this is quite funny. A toddler learns how to crawl by looking at a lot of adults crawling or something.

I think he is a cs guy, who also is into EA, so basically it is the same source as the research OP posted about.

It seems like it is a neat addition to a robust verification system, sadly they picked it as a replacement for a verification system. Ah the libertarian desire to build a thing but not be responsible for it.

I dont even get where they are going with this, It is a bit like asking a suspected troll if they are a troll, if they answer yes they are a troll, if they answer no you still suspect they are a troll.

(This is assuming they are not doing critihype, lets ask them. Oh no).

We just are very good at anthropomorphizing. We created pet rocks for example (also showing that capitalism is more than happy to jump into this)

The AGI learned DECIEVE, but all i wanted it to learn is HUG.

Oddly parodied before it happened in the tv series community (the dad of the somewhat racist main character. The dad itself is very racist).

E: I do wonder what Javier Milei looks like if he would dye his hair

The object vs meta level.

Wait, as AI learns the same way as humans, and humans are thus basically AI does that mean I can just pirate everything? This will change... nothing really.

Isn't this a case of 'the good bits are not original and the original bits are not good'. According to wikipedia it is from 2005.

I used this site (forgive me for the very 2000's style branding, very edgy etc) to learn python. the course used to be free on the site, so you will have to find a way around that, either via wallet, or 1337 skills (the course doesn't do the same branding as the site btw). But it also has a useful list of links to books and stuff like that to learn more (or at least give you an idea about how much different things exist out there).

But the idea behind the course 'the best way to learn is to do the work' is pretty useful in learning how to code. It is easy to fall into a trap of reading about some coding and thinking you understand it and then utterly fail at actually implementing it.

But as froztbyte says, it does depend a bit on how you learn.

E: also this url is quite old now, so I have no idea how many of the links still work, sorry about that.
