There's a radius from earth's surface where TCP/IP won't work anymore (speed of light and whatnot). So you need some kind of datagram protocol. Also if you need Earth's infrastructure like DNS on Mars when Sol is in between Mars and Earth -- well, good luck I guess!

Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networking is an attempt at some of this to actually make an interplanetary protocol. Delayed routing protocols appear to be super hard -- not to mention the problem with issues with MITM attacks at the relays.

There's also interesting aspects of the space application of DTN where transmitters needing to have knowledge of solar system orbits (including the relays) to broadcast at the right time so the message will arrive when the relay is on the right side of Mars, say.

It's looks like LunaNet is going to be the solution for the Artemis mission. But the moon is only 1.3 light seconds away, so not really a super hard challenge (except when trying to transmit to the side opposite the earth). Heck, TCP will probably still work through purely analog relays, albeit terribly.

But I'm more interested in what happens for Mars missions when the round trip time is going to be measured in minutes.

Haha I like that idea, but it's your own personal definition. "-fold" is multiplicative and it's used to flexibly change the part of speech since at least Old English [1]. You can think of folds as referring to the individual layers of something folded, rather than the action of folding. It can be either depending on context. I can make 64 folds (layers) by making 6 folds (actions).

I agree with other commenters. The pitch didn't do a great job of explaining what problem this solves, so I went to the demo video to find the answer. There's no logging problem big enough in my life to require a tool that takes 48 minutes to explain, so that's when you lost me completely. Even the console demo did more harm than good. It provided no real-world examples of logging (complex objects, multi-stage processes, etc), and some of the fancy bits were worse than vanilla console.log (e.g., the "debug" badge that is dark gray text on a dark gray background).

C++23’s New Fold Algorithms
Without having an understanding of the architecture required for general intelligence, it is impossible to make claims like this. Nobody has this understanding. Literally nobody.

The human brain uses on the order of 10 watts of power and there are almost 8 billion examples of this. So we have hard proof that from a thermodynamic perspective general intelligence is utterly and completely mundane.

We almost certainly already have the computational power required for AGI, but have no idea what a complete working architecture looks like. Figuring that out might take decades, or we might get there significantly quicker. The timespan is simply not knowable ahead of time.

I'm not concerned in the slightest about "the singularity" and non-aligned superintelligences. AGI in the hands of malicious human actors is already a nightmare scenario.

> And we are a long way from full retraining on commodity hardware.

This is the part where I am wondering. If we are clever with our architecture, the part that needs retraining may not necessarily be the LLM each time (or ever).

Training a binary classifier to detect a new situation is way more efficient than retraining or fine-tuning GPT4. You (or the AI) could train thousands of these models in just a few hours on commodity hardware. How much "intelligence" or capability could emerge from a tree of 1000+ binary choices evaluated over every input prompt at every turn? What are the implications of being able to retrain the entire classification front end on every turn? What if all statistics could be reflected by the LLM?

Think about dynamic classes proposed by the LLM at runtime that are then automatically trained on relevant data. That's where it starts to get a bit scary for me. E.g.:

> I propose that I add a new binary classifier to contextualize prompts that result in some measured outcome. If I detect a future prompt probably results in this outcome, I will add the following context to it: "..." If the confidence for this classifier ever measures below X%, it should be deleted.

A human could inspect this sort of system a lot more reliably than with other proposals.
as long as an LLM is a black box (i.e. we haven't mapped its logical structure) then there can always be another prompt injection attack you didn't account for.

Your intuition is actually proved mathematically for two-player games of perfect information (even for infinite games), in which chess is included, by Wolfgang Schmidt (Theorem 7 in https://www.jstor.org/stable/1994619). Roughly speaking, if a two-player games of perfect information has a winning strategy (which might need all previous moves of a play to make decisions), then it has a positional winning strategy, which only need the current state/position to make decisions. The `only` requirement needed for that theorem is the Axiom of Choice / Well-ordering Principle.

It's not surprising. He knows the value such a company can bring to Twitter and all his businesses. He has said that AI will help make Twitter better. If he's going to develop AI for Twitter and Tesla then why not start a company.

I expect Musk to create a bunch of other companies. He owns the biggest bullhorn ever. Twitter, and he can leverage it to promote his other companies. People just don't get what an advantage Twitter has given him. If you look at any software based company's expenses, you will see that the biggest expense is advertising by far.

The first nuclear power (the United States) chose to not. Had they decided to be completely evil, they certainly could have used the threat of nuclear annihilation (and the act of it for non-compliers) to achieve that goal.
Some of these replies are quibbling about percents of investment, but the elephant in the room is that the government and military and intelligence agencies have almost surely become involved by this point, and they must be providing some amounts of dark investment somehow at minimum. At maximum it's a new Manhattan-scale project.

You can go down the rabbit hole if you want, but if you want only the most superficial glimpse of it then consider that OpenAI board member Will Hurd was a CIA undercover agent and also a representative in the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and also he is a trustee of In-Q-Tel which is the private investment arm of the CIA.
> Developers are drawn like hawks to a possible whiff of over complexity

In my experience, juniors tend to pick solutions without considering complexity and people factors — at least, I did. There’s a very good reason to avoid over-complexity: if you have too much of it, it kills your velocity.

> to a predisposition of being always staying slightly uncomfortable

I love that feeling of always moving forward. Tech that you didn’t know about a year ago, is now part of your normal workflow. That feeling when you start exploring something totally new and it takes a week to get comfortable with hello world, and a month (or years) to learn exactly where it should fit and what the sharp edges are.
Recently I switched from taking a lions mane supplement in capsule form to mixing some powder into my morning tea, since I can get the powder for far less $$ and it's usda organic on top of it.

For some reason this has resulted in persistent lucid dreaming before waking up, daily, for over a month now. The capsules rarely caused this, but something about the tea seems to be affecting the bio-availability, or maybe the powder is just different.

Whatever the root cause, it's been quite fun. But a bit distracting as it makes completely waking up difficult, now that there's this incredible interactive mind-movie I'd rather continue playing vs. start my day...

It does seem like a state of mind worth exploring with some potentially huge utility if mastered. I can't produce such immersive and vivid visuals to navigate mental models in my regular conscious thinking. I'd much rather do the equivalent of lucid dreaming to navigate things like interplaying algorithms and data structures for example.

> it wouldn't make sense unless the car spent the majority of it's time parked in the sun between locations.

That's exactly what people do with these things. You drive them for a few hours. Then you park it and you go off enjoying nature, or whatever it is what people do while camping for the next few days. Most cars in fact don't drive the vast majority of the time. They just sit there parked for well over 90% of the time.

It's not going to make a massive difference to range of course. But even keeping the battery at the same level or slowing down energy depletion while you are camping helps. And best case, you actually leave the camp site with a bit more range than when you arrived there. That's useful.

GP didn't say anything about TikTok's algorithm not working out for people in general, but I'll bite.

The selling point behind TikTok is that by using the app normally (i.e. watching what you want) TikTok can figure out what stuff you want to watch.

But pretty much every suggestion that comes out on HN for people who complain about the algorithm on sites like this is to do unnatural things to "train" the algorithm: be very careful about how long you watch videos, click on videos that you think are relevant even if you don't want to watch them, watch things you're not interested in to prevent falling into a rut, avoid click on things you're curious about if you don't think you want to watch 100s of them to avoid tainting your recommendations, etc.

If that's "working" I think I'd agree that TikTok was mostly hype.
