Instead of finishing my CS homework I decided to write some more about my thoughts for the time being. 


Many people associate their identities with the subject of their passion, people they adore, and beliefs they adhere to. These are first and foremost relevant foundations of our consciousness, and therefore extremely important to us, that is, in our awakening hours here. However, a mere attachment to these ideas distort the sense of existence in another way. This attachment to other worldly, learned concepts does not establish the self. For the self to be born, one must create and branch off from pillars of our known realm. Growth by any other means would be following a cyclic behavior, intending to meet oneself but never reaching the path you walk down on.


What purpose is there to livelihood, if not to absorb and contain the world at once? To be content with the quietude at night just as the quietude of the soul. What is there to lament, if all that is given is structured? I know that my current trajectory is to pursue some subject in science, hoping that one day it will reciprocate me with... money? Satisfaction correlated with the efforts I invested? People to look up to? These are merely trivial things that everyone receives with time. All in all, the life I live will cease to have meaning if I do not participate in it fully everyday.

ArtificiaI General Intelligence Safety Fundamentals Notes

AGISF - Week 1 - Artificial General Intelligence Reinforcement Learning Foundation models : models trained on broad data that can be adapted to a wide range of downstream tasks. Much of foundation models are enabled by transfer learning and scale. In which scale required:  1. GPU throughput and memory capacity, both increased 10x over the last four years.  2. Transformer architecture  3. Availability of training data  Homogenization: all the defects of the foundation model are inherited by all the adapted models downstream.  Four Background Claims by MIRI, 2015 CE  This post aims to illustrate MIRI's mission objective.  1. Interactions between disparate modules is the general intelligence that we can not replicate in code, yet. MIRI suggests to take heed.  2. Given that the Church-Turing thesis hold, then computers can replicate the functional input/output behavior of brains as physical systems--- they might supercede soon.  3. Intellectual advantage will create incentive to

A year, introspectively summarized

               A year, introspectively summarized      A primal and gravitational feeling is the feeling of belonging--- though the whole sense of "purpose" is artificial, defined deliberately by people who want others to emulate them. Emulation stunts creativity, just as the proclivity to belong stunts agency. I am delighted by the platform that I am given to practice my agentic self, now and continuously onward.       There will be a time when t he basis of your understanding, you learn, was fabricated---even some of your strongest beliefs need reinterpretation, the very framework under which you operate proves inflexible and restrictive. Perhaps the best remediation strategy then is desensitization of the action-oriented part of your mind. You must compromise scaling for precision.       In January, I wrangled with partial differential equations and AI Safety fundamentals course with BlueDot. In February, I wrapped up two of my internships. In March, I explored much of Los

Vicissitude

Vicissitude Did the heavens hang higher to aggrandize your vicissitude? From the primal vines you serpentine ushering empires and visions sublime   If thunder be your heartbeat and determination then let lightning linger in your mind from deprivation unbounded by ecclesiastical measures, you drape your golden body over boundless wonders  The dreamers drown in idolization and ideals but sharper is the blade of guilt the thirst for ravishing power and the departure from righteousness your celestial eyes close and halt On the descent, since the fall the leathery wings enshroud your undying faith In your shadow woke Wicked Mephisto  down is the plunder into ecstacy  but who can share your burden of villainy?
