Ask HN: Is current deep learning related to conscious or sub conscious mind?
I am not much into AI, but looking at what people predict about AI. That it will take over the world etc.

Is it really possible to do it without implementing sub-conscious?

Considering that we ourselves don't understand a lot about that part of the brain, it seems foolish to believe that machines will take over?

The EFF has a FAQ about warrant canaries which addresses some of these topics: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2014/04/warrant-canary-faq

It is believed to be unlikely that a court would compel a company's false speech to maintain a warrant canary.

> Have courts upheld compelled speech?

> Rarely. In a few instances, the courts have upheld compelled speech in the commercial context, where the government shows that the compelled statements convey important truthful information to consumers. For example, warnings on cigarette packs are a form of compelled commercial speech that have sometimes been upheld, and sometimes struck down, depending on whether the government shows there is a rational basis for the warning.

> Have courts upheld compelled false speech?

> No, and the cases on compelled speech have tended to rely on truth as a minimum requirement. For example, Planned Parenthood challenged a requirement that physicians tell patients seeking abortions of an increased risk of suicidal ideation. The court found that Planned Parenthood did not meet its burden of showing that the disclosure was untruthful, misleading, or not relevant to the patient’s decision to have an abortion.

That doesn't make sense. If the OS is "set to English", how do programs know to run in Czech?

Anyway, we just install Windows in English. (British English, so the dates appear the right way around and there's a chance of metric measurements.)

I don't know what your day is like, but for myself I started during the work week by doing intermittent fasting. I would stop eating (in particular, no calories, so I stopped drinking too!) by 8pm the night before and then do not eat before 11-noon the next day. This gave me an 8-9 hour window to eat. It was only rough the first few days, but if you stick with it, you might find yourself doing intermittent fasting on the weekends without even trying.

This phenomenon in America is related but different, and oddly physical in that the physical presence of people from elite backgrounds often has an almost childlike, sexless affect in both men and women. I think it comes from a lack of reliance on physical competence and years of the practice of acting through others. It's easy to recognize, and almost impossible to fake for very long.

I see educated people try to replicate it, and it comes off as a kind of unctuous, false over agreeableness that catches on the same way up-talk and baby talk do among teenagers, but for a set of more subtle affectations related to their schools.

The shibboleths of class are ever present, and the best solution to monocultures is to enable better mobility instead of contriving ways to filter against them.

Title of the research paper: "Redox and pH gradients drive amino acid synthesis in iron oxyhydroxide mineral systems"

This looks like an interesting result about another posible way for the formation of the amino acids pre life. The formation of the amino acids is an important step, and there are a few alternatives, and IIUC we still don't know which one is the most important alternative.

Anyway, the formation of the amino acids is only a small initial step, so the title of the press release "Nasa Study Reproduces Origins of Life on Ocean Floor" is an exaggeration.

It's hard to pick a good alternative title following the guidelines, but my out-of-guideline alternative is: "Nasa study reproduces abiotic synthesis of amino acid in ancient ocean floor"

APD and psychopathy are actual diagnoses...

Moreover, people with antisocial personality disorder aren't emotionless. They're non-empathetic, meaning they have no regard for the emotions of others. Most people with APD are fully capable of feeling and expressing their own emotions.

If you want to re-define these terms to mean something other than what they actually mean, you could say that the evil emotionless, unreachable criminal is incredibly rare. That's because evil people, emotionless people, and unreachable people are all incredibly rare, so the combination of all 3 is even rarer.
An excerpt from Anathem (Neal Stephenson, 2008):

[Crap] — a technical term. So crap filtering became important. Businesses were built around it. Some of those businesses came up with a clever plan to make more money: they poisoned the well. They began to put crap on the Reticulum deliberately, forcing people to use their products to filter that crap back out. ... But it didn't really take off until the military got interested. ... Artificial Inanity systems of enormous sophistication and power were built ..."

Empathy is understanding, sympathy is recognition.

> As the gap widens, the demand for Universal Basic Income will rise and gobble up the working class and, eventually, even the most complicated jobs, until money is considered worthless and all basic needs are met by robots.

The problem here is that nobody knows when we'll get there, if at all. UBI seems like a solution designed for a society where most people have been displaced from the need to work, but it doesn't look like society is there yet. In the meantime we still have people who are struggling to even exist. If the gap to achieve Full Automation in most sectors is multiple generations, you might long reach social unrest before you can even "justify" UBI from a political perspective.

Right now billions in capital investment haven't quite mastered the art of getting cars to navigate roads by themselves, and some industry leaders (Waymo CEO) are skeptical we'll ever get level 5 autonomous cars. And this is all for one single and self-contained task in the human existence (which doesn't even rely on human appendages! try to imagine automating handiwork).

If 70% of people are without work, UBI is an obvious solution. But if 1-10% of people are without work and 40-60% are paid peanuts for shit jobs, what's the solution? If UBI is still best here, how do we justify that to society without appealing to Full Automation?

> They say this, but people with integrity are typically made fun of secretly or even publicly, declared dismissive and asocial, instead of positively recognized in any fashion.

Here is an anecdote going against this idea.

In my junior high school, the person responsible for discipline was a strong woman. She was notoriously strict, walked around with a baton, you definitely didn't want to cross her path when you were misbehaving. She was always treated with respect: she wouldn't have it any other way.

And guess what, everyone loved her. In her office was a collection of sticks, batons and baseball bats given to her by students as a parting gift. When she retired, she got an article in the local newspaper, the subtitle was "discipline is always accepted as long as it is just".

Just to make things clear in case it wasn't obvious: she didn't beat students, threatened to do so or used any kind of violence in general. The baton was mostly just for show.

Regardless of whether or not your hypothesis holds up, I'm glad for your post. Challenging unstated assumptions often results in more-interesting discussions.
If you read the layperson defniition, but the legal one applicable to any legislative or judicial body is defined as:

"... the offense of being disobedient to or disrespectful toward a court of law and its officers in the form of behavior that opposes or defies the authority, justice and dignity of the court"

now that's kind of a mix of breaking the rules and being a general dick, but the point is that to respect the intent institution you need to both respect its judgements and its identity. Musk may or may not be violating the former but is definitely failing the later.

You may not agree with this but that's how our institutions work. As for "thought crime" that doesn't apply once you open your mouth and share it with everyone else.
Confessions of a location data exec
I've only read the SEC's motion (https://assets.bwbx.io/documents/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/ragxTxYi...). I haven't been able to track down the court's final judgement document in the settlement. That said, I don't agree with your portrayal here. The SEC's claim is just that Musk didn't pre-clear the tweet, which was a court-backed requirement in the settlement, which makes him in contempt of court.

The other stuff, like about the TV interview, is evidence that he's not acting in good faith, so the court shouldn't cut him slack here - or, in the motion's words, that he "has not made a diligent or good faith effort to comply with the provision of the Court’s Final Judgment requiring pre-approval of his written communications about Tesla. Less than two months after the Court entered its Final Judgment, Musk publicly indicated that he was not serious about compliance with this provision."
Freud's idea of the unconscious mind starts with the reality that you are not aware of most of the information processing that goes on in your mind.

This is manifestly true.

You can't tell me how you regulate your breathing, how you walk, how you recognize images, understand language, etc. All of that is unconscious, at least most of the time.

Deep networks are good at many things that are hard to put into words so they are all about the unconscious. In fact, consciousness has something to do with the self-image, ego, etc. and that is entirely lacking in deep networks.

I'm talking about how the terms sociopath and psychopath are used colloquially, which as you pointed out is incorrect. The original comment I'm responding to is "Psychopats and sociopaths will [always commit crimes]."

Criminals with APD and Psychopathy as depicted in popular media are incredibly rare — that's the entirety of what I'm trying to express. The American obsession with prisons has next to nothing to do with the prevalence of people who fit the layman's understanding of "sociopaths" and "psychopaths." If it were directly related very few prisons would need to exist at all.
The general attitude is not that the issues are "probably nothing".

The general attitude is that, if you're not saying what the issues actually are, then counting them doesn't tell you anything meaningful.

It's not a pipe dream if your only goal is to be compliant with a formal rule or regulatory structure that requires it. The reason we need stuff like ETS is really because there are organizations that otherwise could not allow any outbound HTTPS sessions.

Norwegian prisons are based on the aspect that "people make mistakes, but they can improve", in other words, rehabilitation. Most countries have based their prisons on the view that prison should be a form of punishment for wrong doings.
You can ban the use of such applications a lot easier than you can ban HTTPS. This means that simply using those tools is grounds for legal action, which might suffice. Especially if the concern for confidentiality is not for internal reasons, but for legal reasons.

I think our society expends a lot of energy and political capital trying to make equality within a single generation possible. I believe that will never work. Who you were born too will always be a huge influence on where you end up on life. In addition, one of the biggest motivations for parents, is to give their children every advantage that they possibly can.

However, instead of fighting with this parental desire to better our children, we should use it. While it may not be possible to achieve equality in a single generation, it should be possible in 2-3 generations. Many immigrants have demonstrated this. The first generation may only work low-paying menial jobs, but they provide enough of an education for the second generation to get higher paying jobs and enter the middle class. The second generation works and saves and their children attend elite universities. The third generation is part of the upper middle class, and with the right connections and luck, they are their children can enter the top class of society. Thus we do not have to do the Sisyphean task of trying to make equal outcomes for everyone, we just have to work to make sure that each parent has the ability to make life better for their children.
