Computing takes thinking.
Thinking is computing.
Intelligence is the fixed point of this loop.
AI is a convergence.

@[email protected] yes fediscience.org seems like a nice size and well run. they are closed to account creation at the moment.

@miguelalonsojr me too, maybe it's because of "following" some hashtags?
Mark CrowleyNov 22, 2022

ok so definitely planning on moving this account off the big mastodon.social, but where to?
Blog post upcoming on why.

Has anyone else found a #scholar/#research/#science focussed masto community with enough #AI #AIML #ArtificialIntelligence other than @sigmoid.social (so obvious...) or @schplat.social (current plan)?

Good community and fair, but proactive admin/moderation is important. Canadian or non-usa a bonus but not required.

@jason so does that mean tumblr is a mastodon now? no, it's part of the fediverse...? no.

@mrvi good point, mastodon is one particular client family that interacts with the Fediverse itself, some of which is interacted with over the web. But keep in mind that for many younger people, at least those under 25 but maybe older, the internet has always been about centralized websites.
