See, #HannahFry doesn’t like #BritishSummertime either. And she’s smart. https://youtube.com/shorts/Ob6TqiEKlDQ?si=n5OxhCgjiCBKeQLl

Our clocks here change tonight.

#HannahFry explains it for you.

TL;DR: it was a entitled golf-playing Masonic fucker.

And the Germans.

Ugh. #hannahFry taking about #AI (and her new TV series on it) is depressing. You have this massive platform and you don't mention power or politics once, not really.

Contrast these videos:

The founder of an AI chatbot decided to step away from it all after being shown that the bot actually encouraged a young guy to kill.

Really worth watching AI Confidential on BBC. I believe it was the first episode last night. The next episode will be about driverless cars.

(None of it bodes well for AI, does it.)

For mathematician #HannahFry, the definition of artificial general intelligence (#AGI) is somewhat hazy. She says, if we’re taking AGI to mean at least as good as most humans on any task that involves a computer, then we’re almost there.

[…Continued]

There are loads of resources on the WWW that do this far better justice, with more detail and less handwaving that I'm using here. There are also scads of pop science explanations by actual maths teachers. #Numberphile has #HannahFry discussing this with orange peel, for example. @standupmaths has probably covered it somewhere.

You'll know that you've reached the good stuff, the stuff that mathematicians and theoretical physicists deal in (knowing about intrinsic measure of curvature being necessary for a proper understanding of curved spacetime in General Relativity), when you come across the explanations that blithely throw in Christoffel symbols and Ricci tensors as if you know what the Hell they are on about.
