When I First Read Deutsch, I Didn’t Quite Get It

“For the state of the art on the #Philosophy of knowledge, which people call #Epistemology, you can basically skip everything and jump straight to #DavidDeutsch.” — #Naval

Willow’s performance is astonishing: It performed a computation in under five minutes that would take one of today’s fastest supercomputers 1025 or 10 septillion years. It lends credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes, in line with the idea that we live in a multiverse, a prediction first made by #DavidDeutsch.

Esto es una #locura

#Google sugirió que el hecho de que su #ordenador #cuántico pudiera realizar semejante #cálculo "da crédito a la idea de que la #computación #cuántica se produce en muchos #universos #paralelos , en línea con la idea de que vivimos en un #multiverso , una predicción realizada por primera vez por #DavidDeutsch " de la #Universidad de #Oxford .

An interesting conversation with David Deutsch. Sam Harris challenges him and makes him clarify some of his most central claims.

If you want a proper criticism of woke ideology, refer to people like @yascha_mounk , who recently wrote a comprehensive book about it, Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, @michaelshermer , Steven Pinker, David Deutsch.

E.g., in contrast to Musk, they won't call their own child 'dead' in order to pander to another insane cult that is MAGA and far-right.

Interesting podcast if you want to keep up-to-date with the #Physics world (of which I’m a long term novice!)

Most recent episode on the ‘Universal Connector’ with favorite #DavidDeutsch

"Could we build a machine that can carry out any task? The meta-framework "Constructor Theory" suggests we might be able to make such a universal constructor. David Deutsch discusses the implications of such a machine for physics, for the economy, and for humans. Deutsch also talks about problems in funding for fundamental physics”
