    Many had the same thought after AlphaZero i.e. some sort of expert-iteration for any (formal/combinatorial) domain what can be tree-searched But it turns out, that interesting prob…

    Should this be modifiable for higher-level byte-code? My thinking is to provide hand-crafted primitives to transform byte code, and maybe use an existing optimizer to do the search…

    Love to chat. Sent u an email (former HFT and kernel guy). One topic which is feel is neglected is a good GCN (or any GNN) to operate on existing code trees. Most approaches seem t…

    What do you think is a more productive path leading to "AutoCode" ?! A. Add external definitions or reward formalism to make the code-space easier to search? OR B. Keep adding code…

    As a non-US person, is there anyway to bill using Stripe without incorporating? I dont mind withholding tax, etc, i just want to be able to bill and track the initial revenues. AFA…

    My only nitpick is that AG (ML + search really) improved logarithmic-ally with exponential compute. In addition, real world domains may not be some parallizable. So yes, current AI…

    Is there some sort of group-defense, where several sue-ees group together to contest a ridiculous patent ? I guess the main difficulty is not the legal framework, but the business …

    Great news. I wonder if already there will be a selection bias to recession-friendly and revenue-producing startups

    IANAVC (not a vc), but i think do this is doubling down on risk. If you take seed from VC, then: 1. if you are mediocre then things become very difficult for you 2. if you are succ…

    As someone patiently explained to me 2 yrs ago... For the ATARI, the "real world" is the present frame, and a fixed set of 4 buttons and 4 directions. This of course is the game pr…

    This is a recent presentation, apparently for Indonesia. I find it detailed and well presented. I do not really hold much hope for new nuclear, as compared to renewables. However, …

    The robo-taxi connotation is even worse. Any robo-taxi can be programmed to drive like a grand-ma to improve battery life. The cost of a x2 battery size is easier to amortize. Its …

    The GP is correct and not just being pedantic. This is just click bait. A battery (life)range is degraded (mostly) by (dis)charging speed, average discharge level and ambient heat.…

    Does anyone have a graph of recent $/transistor progress? Its obvious that moore's law is stagnant, and clock speed is dead, etc, etc. But are we at least getting the same core siz…

    The main comment here seems to be sluggish performance. Is it some sort O(n^2) rule handler deep inside the builder? Or is it just "python-slow" ? :/ Can someone give an example of…
