"we are at a unique moment when AI companies need so much computer power for AI that they are building datacenters next to nuclear power stations, when nation states are set to spend wild amounts on AI, and when the technology’s environmental impact is only getting worse.

My new WIRED piece about arXiv: either 1) the most important website you've never heard of or 2) the platform your entire field depends on Also had the pleasure of hanging out with its creator, Paul Ginsparg—the Forrest Gump of the Internet age

Father Quake I think you are misunderstanding what this tech demo actually is, but I will engage with what I think your gripe is — AI tooling trivializing the skillsets of programmers, artists, and designers. My first games involved hand assembling machine code and turning graph paper

New Dan Gelbart just dropped and it looks like a banger. "Micron-level resolution 3D printing for high volumes and low equipment cost, under $10,000 for ceramic parts."

Cosmos is hiring an Editorial Lead. Come shape the voice of the philosopher-builder movement 🚀 This is a unique role, so spread the word. It's Aristotle over breakfast + arXiv after lunch; Stripe Press The Economist tech w/ a twist. What year-1 success looks like:

Computers based on architectures that disrespect basic physical constraints (all of them) will be left in the dust by machines that flow with nature

The greatest scientific blunder of the late 20th century was believing that computation could be effectively studied abstractly, independent of the physics of any device

Physics is the search for the rules which are invariantly true, at all times, in every observation we make. Mathematics is the search for the rules which are invariantly true, at all times, in everything we can imagine observing.

Looking to start a probabilistic machine learning residency program at Extropic! Would very much appreciate connection to math/stats/physics PhD students/postdocs that would enjoy working on a contrarian approach to large-scale AI.

Going to be fun, consider joining in if you are a smart PhD student who might be interested in working on Prob. ML at Extropic
