This was a fun conversation!

The idea that massive monolithic models are the “foundation” of anything is a distraction and a dead end. That framing only serves to drive cloud computing profits - that’s it. The future is distributed intelligence. #ArtificialInteligence

I wonder how much of AGI-ism is tied to our need to discover, define and worship something greater than ourselves?

Is it just me or are LLMs the new blockchain? Remember when every problem was a problem that could be solved by sticking it on a blockchain?

It’s a relief to read about something other than AI hype. And here’s where I admit that I am experiencing major #VisionPro FOMO this weekend.

Now hiring! Introducing Noumenal Labs (noumenal.ai), a new deep tech company focusing on multiscale, multimodal time series modeling, object-centered causal physics discovery, continual learning, and energy-based architectures 1/5

Neuroscientist Dr. Jeff Beck from Noumenal Labs discusses the fundamental nature of representation, understanding, and modelling, comparing biological intelligence with current artificial intelligence. Jeff argues that *how* information is represented dictates predictive

Physical AI is a new frontier that presents challenges beyond the scope of current approaches to AI. Deep Learning works great in use cases where data is abundant, but in the physical world data is sparse and ever-changing. This necessitates a new set of architectures. Let's go!
