These people are really too confident. They can't even make a good language model, but they still want to transform their brains. Are they crazy? ^~^ No matter how you modify or iterate the language model, it doesn't matter. But the human brain has only one thing, and once it is damaged, it is irreversible.

    No Elon understands this deeply in my opinion. You should listen to lex freidmans latest interview with him on neuralink, you would think elon has a phd in the subject.

      Do you have a PhD on the subject? And if not, what’s your opinion based on? It’s well-known that Musk consistently and confidently spews bullshit on subjects he doesn’t understand. It really became obvious to a lot of people when he took over Twitter and talked nonsense about its architecture and the reasons for the failures. Oh, and let’s not forget the genius idea of asking coders to print their code, and then telling them to shred what they had printed.

        You have tenacity. I gave up at "You should listen to lex freidmans..."

        The people listening to Lex Fridman should listen to the debunking of his weird insistence on associating himself with MIT. It's especially weird because he's got multiple degrees from Drexel. His real credentials are... real. Yet he hangs his hat on giving an IAP talk on the MIT campus.
