The 2008 incident, this time on an Airbus, is interesting to HN readership as an unexplained hardware bit flip in one of the flight systems that calculates the angle of attack generated garbled data. This system was triple-redundant; however, it subsequently triggered a then-unknown software defect in the flight computer's algorithm for discarding such erroneous data. Some sort of edge case that wasn't considered. The result was the plane entered a dive in a manner eerily similar to the MCAS incident.

How did you overcome this?
We don't even know if AGI is possible. Let's not mince words here: nothing, and I do mean nothing, not a single, solitary model on offer by anyone, anywhere, right now has a prayer of becoming AGI. That's just... not how it's going to be done. What we have right now are fantastically powerful, interesting, and neato to play with pattern recognition programs, that can take their understanding of patterns, and reproduce more of them given prompts. That's it. That is not general intelligence of any sort, it's not even really creative, it's analogous to creative output but it isn't outputting to say something, it's simply taking samples of all the things it's seen previously and making something new with as few "errors" as possible, whatever that means in context. This is not intelligence of any sort, period, paragraph.

I don't know to what extent OpenAI and their compatriots are actually trying to bring forth artificial life (or at least, consciousness) forward, versus how much they're just banking on how cool AI is as a term in order to funnel even more money to themselves chasing the pipe dream of building it, and at this point, I don't care. Even the products they have made do not hold a candle to the things they claim to be trying to make, but they're more than happy to talk them up like there's a chance. And I suppose there is a chance, but I really struggle to see ChatGPT turning into skynet.
But the candidate usually never knows what position they are in line. Sure the person on the other side of the table could divulge, but the candidate shouldn't really trust that information.

A person that is aware enough to know they are not calibrated should also not make the mistake of attributing higher/lower odds to something that is mutually exclusive, assuming that the interviews are not systematically set up in a way to put worse qualified candidates first.

This has been amazingly accurate for time estimates - in aggregate... Individually, they are wildly inaccurate.

> My feeling on this is complete opposite to yours. To me, this is completely valid mode of discovery, and possibly even what led to the thought of the Turing machine. We are after all, interested in mimicking/reproducing the we way think. So it's perfectly sensible that one would "think about how we think" to try and come up with a model of computation.

I'm not sure if you thought I was being sarcastic, but what I was describing there is literally how Turing came up with the idea, he describes this in the paper where he introduces the concept of computable numbers [0]. I just summarized the non-math bits of his paper.

If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it, it's really easily digestible if you ignore the more mathematical parts. This particular argument appears in section 9.

Saying "X is true because otherwise, it would be quite a shocker" isn't really a proof.

It's almost an appeal to common sense. (which, admittedly, is often the best argument we have). IMHO there's often a bit of over-confidence among scientists about the universe being 13 billion years old and what happened during the Big Bang, if it just relies on such a common sense argument.

I know it's unscientific to suggest maybe laws of physics are not time invariant across such scales, because until we have a time machine we can't test this theory, but then flipping the argument (that laws of physics are definitely time invariant) is also technically unscientific -- we're basically assuming this without strong evidence.

This goes back to the old debate on the problem of induction in science, (see David Hume, Karl Popper, etc.) and I think it isn't emphasized enough in modern discussions that, perhaps, there's a small chance that these foundational concepts in physics could be invalid.

Attack here is a term specific to cryptography and infosec, it does not imply doing anything illegal or violent. "Oracle attack" is the more specific term where you probe a system to give up some of its internals it was not meant to expose.

Part of it has to do with when different adhesives were developed in Japan.

If you don’t have adhesives, you use more complex joinery to achieve results.

Nowadays, joints are made using metal parts. The splices and connecting joints have become much simpler. It si now possible to construct large wooden structures using standard processes. However, the uncertain properties of wood have brought forward the problem of weakening of the joints.
This work goes back to the fundamental of joining. It is recommended to all technicians and also to architects and engineers.

I agree with you 100% on your assessment of what can be known, but I think I disagree nearly as strongly on your assessment of the humanity that springs from attempting to know it.

To exist in the state you describe - with neither start state nor isolation level measurable in any tamper-proof way - and to yet still dedicate one's life to observing and pondering the complexity of the resulting cosmos is, to my eye, laudable and beautiful.

Where you see hubris, I see humility. Everyone who attempts to expand the corpus of human understanding of cosmology knows that the endgame is somewhere short of perfection. And yet they are inspired to carry on. It seems to me that matters of state, economics, medicine, technology, and many other fields will benefit from a similar disposition.
I quickly read through the paper. One thing to note is that they use the Frobenius norm (at least I suppose this from the index F) for the matrix factorization. That is for their learning algorithm. Then, they use the cosine-similarity to evaluate. A metric that wasn't used in the algorithm.

This is a long-standing question for me. Theoretically, I should use the CS in my optimization and then also in the evaluation. But I haven't tested this empirically.

For example, there is sperical K-meams that clusters the data on the unit sphere.

Good creators are always assessing and perpetually 20% dissatisfied with their output so experiencing how others have honed their craft and made great stuff should serve to make you more dissatisfied with your own progress on your own projects. But if you are 100% dissatisfied and 0% productive then you've lost balance and are in a writer's block.

> the transcript of Saturday's testimony could have been read to the jury during trial. Obviously that can't happen now

I'm not so sure: https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/right_to_confront_witness:

> In Barber v. Page, 390 U.S. 719 (1968), the Court recognized a common law exception to the Confrontation Clause's requirement when a witness was unavailable and, during previous judicial proceedings, had testified against the same defendant and was subject to cross-examination by that defendant. The Supreme Court reaffirmed this exception in Crawford v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36 (2004), holding that "the Framers would not have allowed admission of testimonial statements of a witness who did not appear at trial unless he was unavailable to testify and the defendant had had a prior opportunity for cross-examination." Further, the Court in Crawford overturned Ohio v. Roberts (above).

The article said he was cross-examined by Boeing's attorneys last week and he now unavailable because he's dead, so it seems to be his deposition would fall under this exception.
I'm not claiming to be smarter than everyone else, but I am claiming to be smarter than the people who believe that Boeing hired Michael Fassbender from The Killer to assassinate a former employee after but only after years of whistleblowing and after all the allegedly incriminating information was already out in the open.

The more I look at AI, the more I get the feeling that this is true. Spinning an intriguing sci-fi tale of apocalypse and extinction is relatively easy and serves to obfuscate any nearer-term concerns about AI behind a hypothetical that sucks the air out of the room.

That said, I don’t think that it’s necessarily disingenuous so much as it is myopic - to them of course AI is exciting, world-changing, and profitable, but they (willfully or not) fail to see the downsides or upsides for anyone else but them. Perhaps in the minds of the ultra-rich AI proponents, solutions to nearer-term effects of their tech are someone else’s problem, but the “existential risks” are “everyone’s” problem.

I respect carpentry, woodworking and the skill required to rip a piece of wood with such a saw, but I bet most of medieval Japanese craftsmen would ditch their hands saws for a Harbor Freight table saw in a heartbeat. In modern times to spend 7 hours ripping one piece of wood has little to do with woodworking.

What exactly is not great? What's missing?

I see only 2 possible arguments here and neither one seems to actually exist, but you tell me what I'm missing.

One possibility is there is some data that the statement doesn't cover.

Let's see... The statement says they don't posess anything at all. And since the statement is so short, there is no possibility to hide any technicalities in confusing fine print.

So, what data isn't included in "we don't have anything"? What is something the statement says or fails to say?

All I see is farcical things like "aha! but it doesn't say what they are going to do with my email!" 1, yes it does, 2, what email?

The other possibility is the statement is a lie because the code sends them data.

Does it?
No, it's like the schema of the database which is normally a secret.
> We don't even know if AGI is possible.

My response to a very similar statement is here:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39612641

> That's just... not how it's going to be done.

I agree. I think there are some critical ingredients missing. Obviously the weights need to be able to update to new data in a semi-online fashion, for example. But I think there are less ingredients missing than there were a decade ago, by a much larger factor than I expected at the time, and a decade from now, the number of missing ingredients might be zero.

My uncertainty on this is not because I think GPT is more than it seems,but because it's unclear how much of the amazing cognitive capability that humans have is, under the hood, much simpler than it seems.

I really want humanity to exist even ten decades from now; I want my kids to have grandkids. So I care about this even if I don't expect AGI from a 2025 Q1 product launch. And I don't think it's too early to worry about it, just like I don't think 1980 was too early to worry about climate change.

On the one hand, violence is always a threat to speaking freely. This is not new. At the very least getting fired is what most people can expect if they speak freely about legitimately confidential things at work. Even things like disparaging co-workers, in a public setting, or harassing people at work by saying inappropriate things can get you fired.

You are free to speak freely, but there are consequences, Free Speech does not imply uou can say what you like consequence free.

In some (criminal) industries, speaking freely will get you killed. If Hollywood is to be believed, speaking against the rich and powerful can get you killed. (I suspect it happens, I suspect its nowhere near as common as Hollywood makes out.)

To your point though Free Speech (capital F) has a specific constitutional meaning, and covers the consequences the govt can apply to your speaking freely. It does not promise no consequences by companies.

There is no threat to Freedom of Speech here, because what he was doing was not that kind of speech. Of course there is a chilling effect on speaking freely, his speaking out had consequences (regardless of the hand that pulled the trigger.)

In short you can't just say whatever you like (as E Jean Carrol understands) without consequence. That's not what Freedom of Speech means.

This is overly cynical, and I would say microeconomics is even more bogus than macro. In micro you come up with gross oversimplifications of the world and obtain a mathematical model that's supposed to be scientific because it's mathematical.

In macro, the problem is that when central banks follow some economic theory, you don't see what would have happened if they didn't. As an example, people love to criticize the bailouts of banks and ZIRP, without understanding why it was done. The reason was that economists identified that the long and destructive recession in the 1930s was largely made worse by lack of available money: banks in those days could not evaluate who to give loans to, so they were overly cautious. As a result, businesses went bankrupt and no new ones were founded.

This is what they wanted to avoid in our recent crises, and of course their actions come with other consequences. Those consequences are impossible to predict, as you say, but that's not the point. The point is to do or predict at least something, and try not to repeat past mistakes. This holds true for any study of complex systems where you cannot just make repeated experiments to obtain exact knowledge (some parts of medicine, psychology, nutrition etc.)
Russel's Paradox
Embeddings result from computing what word can appear in a given context, so words that would appear in the same spot will have higher cosine score between themselves.

But it doesn't differentiate further, so you can have "beautiful" and "ugly" embed very close to each other even though they are opposites - they tend to appear in similar places.

Another limitation of embeddings and cosine-similarity is that that they can't tell you "how similar" - is it equivalence or just relatedness? They make a mess of equivalent, antonymous and related things.

The safeguards and caution are even more immoral from a rationalist point of view.

By delaying potential medical breakthroughs you cause many future humans some amount of additional suffering because medical breakthroughs build on one another.

If you delay an ALS cure by one year, you are not only harming all those who have ALS for that year but all those present and future humans that have other diseases that could benefit from the future research tree branching out from that ALS cure.

Suppose for example that our ancestors were more risk-averse, more focused on the moral "do no harm" and thereby agreed upon 20 year trials for all new surgical procedures. What would 'modern' surgery look like?

We should be celebrating the risk-takers as willingness to take an experimental drug or an experimental treatment as it is often a greater gift to humanity than an organ donation.
> Are you surprised about the lack of curiosity on this sort of case?

I don't think it's a matter of curiosity. If most of the comments in this thread were things like the history of corporate violence (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-union_violence_in_the_Uni...) then I think there would be less downvotes. Few people are aware of corporate oppression of the past which robs people of context for the present.

Unfortunately rather than provoking curiosity by introducing people to information they didn't know they didn't know, most of the comments here are some form of "in the back of the head twice..." which just isn't interesting or thought provoking.

The reason it doesn't fall into this category is not because it's not ultra-processed, but because it's not food, and no one is claiming that it's food either. Presumably the idea here is more about how many calories you ingest, and what proportion of those calories comes from what level of processing. AG1 is not going to be a significant proportion of anyone's caloric intake.
