Starting today I'm embarking upon a new adventure: 12 talks over the next 18 days as part of the London Mathematical Society Hardy Lecture Tour (plus a few additions). Titles and abstracts can all be found here: emilyriehl.github.io/talks/ and slides (when available) will eventually be added.

How to prove that LLMs will lead to AGI (in 3 easy steps): 1. Prepare a dataset of math knowledge BEFORE 1500 2. Certify it doesn't include any mention to complex numbers 3. Train the model and ask it to find all roots of x^2+1=0 If the concept of complex numbers ever emerges

If you care about functional programming, the history of programming languages or military-grade weaponized autism, this tweet is for you. There's a legend walking among us that you don't know about, so let me introduce him. A64m_qb0 has been writing a book on the history of FP
