I think an unrestricted model with sufficient inference time compute could create unprecedented catastrophes.

New comment by lukeplato in "Norepinephrine-mediated slow vasomotion drives glymphatic clearance during sleep"

Michael Edward Johnson has an interesting theory called vasocomputation with the core hypothesis:

> vasomuscular tension stabilizes local neural patterns. A sustained thought is a pattern of vascular clenching that reduces dynamic range in nearby neurons. The thought (congealed pattern) persists until the muscle relaxes.

I don't see why a mixture of experts couldn't be distilled into a single model and unified latent space

reading this thread was a good reminder that being intelligent but closed off to alternative hypotheses is the same thing as being ignorant

New comment by lukeplato in "K-D Tree Art Generator"

lukeplato — Sat, 08 Jun 2024 19:00:21 +0000

I remember reading that for k-d trees to be able to split on k dimensions the dataset needs to be > 2^k, which becomes unwieldy pretty quickly

This could make for an interesting UI for exploring clusters in data. I only wish K-d trees could handle higher dimensions

interatomic potential is a promising scale and there's been some interesting recent developments using equivariant graph neural networks: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-022-29939-5 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2206.07697
