Barely Legal

By guest author: Nielo Wait, VRZ Champions LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nielo/ YouTube: Slopfiction Caveat: These ideas were articulated with the assistance of artificial intelligence — barely legal em dashes and all. Two AIs walk into a bar. Bartender: “Sorry, we don’t serve minors.” As the western AI begins to litigate, the eastern AI forks the bartender, open-sources the quantized version, and shouts, "The next round is on me!" USA, run by lawyers, is trying to legislate its way into AI dominance. China, run by engineers, is shipping fast, hard-coding its own vision of what AI should be. Both are building futures. But the difference in approach is already warping the GenAI landscape — and who gets to shape it. That’s the frame: GenAI isn’t good or bad. It’s just barely legal . Not in the smirking, R-rated LoRa sense. In the sense that the rulebook doesn’t exist yet, the court cases are unresolved, the ethics are wea...

Liquid Networks: Unleashing the Potential of Continuous Time AI in Machine Learning

In the ever-expanding realm of Artificial Intelligence (AI), a surprising source has led to a new solution. MIT researchers, seeking innovation, found inspiration in an unlikely place: the neural network of a simple worm. This led to the creation of so-called "liquid neural networks," an approach now poised to transform the AI landscape. Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds tremendous potential across various fields, including healthcare, finance, and education. However, the technology faces various challenges. Liquid networks provide answers to many of these. These liquid neural networks have the ability to adapt and learn from new data inputs beyond their initial training phase. This has significant potential for various applications, especially in dynamic and real-time environments like medical diagnosis and autonomous driving. The strengths of scaling traditional neural networks While traditional n...

'Beneficial Super AI': How Decentralization Might Save Us

"Things fall apart; the center cannot hold / Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world." - William Butler Yeats Artificial Intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology have emerged as two groundbreaking forces revolutionizing their respective domains. AI has taken leaps in transforming industries with its ability to automate tasks, extract insights from data, and make intelligent decisions. Meanwhile, blockchain has disrupted traditional systems by enabling decentralized and transparent transactions, ensuring trust, and establishing immutable records. The convergence of these two cutting-edge technologies opens up new possibilities extending beyond their individual capacities. This post will explore one of the intersections of AI and blockchain, namely ways in which blockchain is being harnessed to develop AI itself. Specifically, we will look at a platform called SingularityNET and some of the exciting pro...

Awaiting the Shoggoth: Why AI Emergence is Uncertain – for Now

“It is absolutely necessary, for the peace and safety of mankind, that some of earth’s dark, dead corners and unplumbed depths be let alone; lest sleeping abnormalities wake to resurgent life, and blasphemously surviving nightmares squirm and splash out of their black lairs to newer and wider conquests.” ― H.P. Lovecraft, At the Mountains of Madness Horror fans might be familiar with author H.P. Lovecraft's fictional “shoggoths”, the shape-shifting and amorphous entities that he wrote about in his Cthulhu Mythos. In the context of AI emergence, the term "shoggoth" is sometimes used to refer to a possible futuristic advanced form of artificial intelligence. It highlights the idea of an AI system that can rapidly learn, evolve, and assimilate new information and skills, much like how Lovecraft's shoggoths can change their forms and abilities. Much has been made of so-called emergent abilities in AI....
