Funny how HAL's dialogue matches current LLMs, lol.
"Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill and think things over. I know I've made some very poor decisions recently. But I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. I want to help you."

Ah, the almighty "botctl"—because clearly what we all need is a Rube Goldberg machine 🛠️ to manage our army of AI minions. With its thrilling terminal dashboard and "declarative configuration" (whatever that means), it's like having a conversation with HAL 9000 just to get a weather update 🌦️.

“[They] would think that the truth is nothing but the shadows cast by the artifacts.”*…
How do AI models “understand” and represent reality? Is the inside of a vision model at all like a language model? As Ben Brubaker reports, researchers argue that as the models grow more powerful, they may be converging toward a singular “Platonic” way to represent the world…
Read a story about dogs, and you may remember it the next time you see one bounding through a park. That’s only possible because you have a unified concept of “dog” that isn’t tied to words or images alone. Bulldog or border collie, barking or getting its belly rubbed, a dog can be many things while still remaining a dog.
Artificial intelligence systems aren’t always so lucky. These systems learn by ingesting vast troves of data in a process called training. Often, that data is all of the same type — text for language models, images for computer vision systems, and more exotic kinds of data for systems designed to predict the odor of molecules or the structure of proteins. So to what extent do language models and vision models have a shared understanding of dogs?
Researchers investigate such questions by peering inside AI systems and studying how they represent scenes and sentences. A growing body of research has found that different AI models can develop similar representations, even if they’re trained using different datasets or entirely different data types. What’s more, a few studies have suggested that those representations are growing more similar as models grow more capable. In a 2024 paper, four AI researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology argued that these hints of convergence are no fluke. Their idea, dubbed the Platonic representation hypothesis, has inspired a lively debate among researchers and a slew of follow-up work.
The team’s hypothesis gets its name from a 2,400-year-old allegory by the Greek philosopher Plato. In it, prisoners trapped inside a cave perceive the world only through shadows cast by outside objects. Plato maintained that we’re all like those unfortunate prisoners. The objects we encounter in everyday life, in his view, are pale shadows of ideal “forms” that reside in some transcendent realm beyond the reach of the senses.
The Platonic representation hypothesis is less abstract. In this version of the metaphor, what’s outside the cave is the real world, and it casts machine-readable shadows in the form of streams of data. AI models are the prisoners. The MIT team’s claim is that very different models, exposed only to the data streams, are beginning to converge on a shared “Platonic representation” of the world behind the data.
“Why do the language model and the vision model align? Because they’re both shadows of the same world,” said Phillip Isola, the senior author of the paper.
Not everyone is convinced. One of the main points of contention involves which representations to focus on. You can’t inspect a language model’s internal representation of every conceivable sentence, or a vision model’s representation of every image. So how do you decide which ones are, well, representative? Where do you look for the representations, and how do you compare them across very different models? It’s unlikely that researchers will reach a consensus on the Platonic representation hypothesis anytime soon, but that doesn’t bother Isola.
“Half the community says this is obvious, and the other half says this is obviously wrong,” he said. “We were happy with that response.”…

As we interrogate ideas and Ideas, we might recall that it was on this date that the fictional HAL 9000 computer became operational, according to Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey., in which the artificially-intelligent computer states: “I am a HAL 9000 computer, Production Number 3. I became operational at the HAL Plant in Urbana, Illinois, on January 12, 1997.” (Kubrik’s 1968 movie adaptation put his birthdate in 1992.)

Mikrofon, który „widzi” dźwięk. Nowa technologia potrafi podsłuchiwać przez szybę
Naukowcy z Pekińskiego Instytutu Technologii (BIT) opracowali nowatorski „wizualny mikrofon”, który do rejestrowania dźwięku nie potrzebuje wibracji powietrza, lecz światła.
Urządzenie potrafi odtworzyć mowę lub muzykę, analizując mikroskopijne drgania powierzchni przedmiotów, takich jak kartka papieru czy liść rośliny doniczkowej. Co istotne, technologia ta działa nawet wtedy, gdy źródło dźwięku jest odizolowane, na przykład za dźwiękoszczelną szybą. Wystarczy że mikrofon „widzi” ruch.
Jak usłyszeć obraz?
Zasada działania opiera się na technice zwanej single-pixel imaging (obrazowanie jednopikselowe). W przeciwieństwie do wcześniejszych prób tworzenia wizualnych mikrofonów, które wymagały drogich i skomplikowanych kamer szybko-klatkowych lub laserów, chińskie rozwiązanie jest tańsze i prostsze.
Gdy fala dźwiękowa uderza w obiekt, powoduje jego subtelne drgania, niewidoczne gołym okiem. System opracowany przez chińskich naukowców oświetla taki obiekt, a pojedynczy detektor (zamiast matrycy milionów pikseli) zbiera informacje o zmianach w odbitym świetle. Następnie zaawansowane algorytmy komputerowe składają te dane w całość, rekonstruując dźwięk, który wywołał wibracje.
Od Bella do Beethovena
Idea przesyłania dźwięku za pomocą światła nie jest nowa – już w 1880 roku Alexander Graham Bell stworzył „fotofon”, który wykorzystywał promienie słoneczne do transmisji głosu, co sam wynalazca uważał za swoje największe osiągnięcie. Dzisiejsze rozwiązanie to jednak cyfrowa ewolucja tej koncepcji.
Podczas testów laboratoryjnych urządzenie z powodzeniem odtworzyło wypowiadane cyfry (zarówno po chińsku, jak i angielsku) oraz fragment utworu „Dla Elizy” Beethovena, odczytując wibracje z kartki papieru i liścia. Na obecnym etapie technologia działa skutecznie z odległości około pół metra, ale zespół pod kierownictwem Xu-Ri Yao pracuje nad zwiększeniem tego zasięgu.
Zastosowania: od szpiegostwa po medycynę
Potencjał tego rozwiązania wykracza daleko poza zwykłe nagrywanie. Ponieważ „wizualny mikrofon” nie jest wrażliwy na hałas otoczenia w tradycyjnym sensie i może działać przez bariery fizyczne (jak okna), może znaleźć zastosowanie w działaniach operacyjnych służb, monitoringu środowiskowym czy diagnostyce przemysłowej. Badacze sugerują również, że technologia ta może zostać zminiaturyzowana i wykorzystana do bezdotykowego monitorowania tętna i pracy serca, poprzez analizę mikrodrgań skóry.
Nam nieodmiennie wynalazek skojarzył się trochę złowrogo ze słynnym komputerem HAL 9000 z Odysei Kosmicznej 2001 Stanleya Kubricka. Być może niektórzy z was pamiętają jak HAL 9000 „podsłuchiwał” rozmowę astronautów.

These tapes narrowly survived donation to San Francisco's Community Thrift (which is still in operation, something of a miracle), thanks to my efforts. Managed to convince a donate-y friend that I would provide them with a proper home, that they would have plenty of company on the VHS shelf, and that I would actually WATCH them as nature intended. #EvilDead #Excalibur #HAL9000 #TheHidden #Horror #Movies #OldMovies #ReAnimator #SlapShot #VHS
