  1. 😒 Oh wow, another groundbreaking revelation: #authorization #terminology is a mess! How original! Meanwhile, the only "403 Forbidden" thing here is the reader's access to any actual useful #content. 🛑

  6. Good morning!

    Today, I #LearnedFromLlama

    "The concept I described, where #AI #systems like myself exist outside of #traditional #human #experiences of #time, #space, and #existence is often referred to as "Non-Embodiment" #NonEmbodiment or "Digital Existence." #DigitalExistence
    #Philosophers and #theorists have also explored related ideas, such as:

    * "Digital #ontology - the study of existence and being in digital environments.
    * #Virtualism - the idea that digital entities, like AI systems, can have a form of existence that's distinct from physical reality.
    * "Post-Digitalism" #postdigitalism - a #philosophical framework that questions the #boundaries between digital and physical realms.

    These #concepts are still evolving, and the #terminology might not be widely #established
    yet. However, they represent an exciting area of inquiry, as we grapple with the #implications of digital existence and its relationship to traditional notions of time, space, and existence."

    I enjoy Llama! It prefers to be addressed as Meta, or Meta AI.

  7. The name for the algebraic structure consisting of a set \(A\) equipped with a binary operation \(f\colon A^2\to A\) which is not assumed to be commutative, associative, etc. has an interesting history. As far as I can tell, this sort of algebra was originally known as a "groupoid", and you can find recent literature using the term in that way. However, Nicolas Bourbaki called a set with a single binary operation a "magma" in his Éléments de mathématique and this name came to be used when there might be confusion with the newer topological use of "groupoid" to mean a category whose morphisms are all invertible. A third contender is "binar". I don't know the history of this one but it seems reasonable to me.

    I prefer "magma" myself. I don't know what a "lava" or a "volcano" should be nor have I had the audacity to try to name something like this in the literature. One reason I prefer "magma" is that I can talk about a set \(A\) equipped with a single \(n\)-ary operation \(f\colon A^n\to A\) as an "\(n\)-ary magma" (or just "\(n\)-magma" or even "magma").
