Oh man, wish i was in #Halifax #NovaScotia today for this.

Dr. Thomas Trappenberg, Professor in the Faculty of Computer Science at Dalhousie University, will deliver a seminar titled “AI and the Cognitive Brain: Have We Uncovered the Ingredients for Intelligence?”

Given the recent mind-blowing abilities of AI agents, I will review some of their theoretical underpinnings. This includes the Modern Hopfield Model (MHM) and Vector Symbolic Architectures (VSA).

I will aim to illuminate the ideas behind these concepts in a non-mathematical way, although I cannot promise that no formulas will be shown for illustrative purposes. While these mechanisms may be implemented with transformers, I will also explore whether they are realized in the brain at a cognitive level, and where gaps may exist in such a cognitive architecture.

Why did the Turing machine break up with the programmer? It couldn't decide if the relationship would ever halt. #computerscience #puns

Always striking to see how multi-faceted some of the great scientists of the past were ( #Gauss, #Faraday, #Maxwell, #Newton, #Somerville, #Lovelace etc.). The boundaries between disciplines were much more fluid back then, and the same person could contribute to multiple fields, even though they might be remembered for only one today.

📱Should information on social media always flow freely?

Simulations by Prof. of Artificial Intelligence Davide Grossi and UG team show that an unrestricted flow of information can amplify incorrect ideas amongst like-minded people.💡❌

🖥️ Training language models to be warm can reduce accuracy and increase sycophancy

"Our findings suggest that training artificial intelligence systems to be warm may come at a cost to accuracy, and that warmth and accuracy may not be independent by default."

Okay, hive mind.
I have a cousin (cousin, once-removed, if you needed to know) that's graduating from high school with an associates degree in computer science. An aunt wants to give this cousin a computer science-y book.

Recommendations?

And .... GO.

#GifsArtidote: confirms my motto 'change the world, start with your self' is absolutely spot on, & it also points to my argument that #capitalism is fundamentally #narcissistic, bc the companies pushing a.i. development & implementation have only one goal: short-term profit for the shareholders, not creating smarter ppl pushing humanity's development.

Released my DIA-format Gauss-Seidel smoother plugin for OpenFOAM v13. MIT licensed.

Replaces the default LDU smoother on structured hex meshes — DIA stores diagonal bands contiguously, reducing pointer indirection and DRAM pressure. Expecting 10–20% wall-clock gains and better cache utilisation based on standalone profiling. Full OpenFOAM benchmarks incoming.

I got dragged into a conversation today where a group of people collectively decided that binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems are useless and stupid.

Most of them use hexadecimal every day. In their graphic design work. #FF5733 is not decimal. It is HEXADECIMAL.

Their argument against binary was that counting in it is inefficient. That 1, 10, 11, 100, 101 is dumb compared to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

These fools fail to understand that both systems are one and the same!

Every positional number system works identically. You have N symbols. You count through them. When you exhaust them, you reset and carry. Decimal has 10 symbols (0-9). Binary has 2 (0-1). Octal has 8 (0-7). Hexadecimal has 16 (0-F). Same mechanism. Different base.

Binary is not inefficient. It maps to transistor states. Octal compresses binary into groups of three-- which is why Unix permissions are written as 000 - 777. Hexadecimal compresses binary into groups of four --which is why every memory address and colour code is in hex. These are not alternatives to decimal. They are the same information at different compression levels.

The people arguing loudest had encountered these systems, used them regularly, and left without a single question about how any of it works.

I do not know what is worse -- the ignorance or the confidence it travels at.
