Wrenching news: Dan Dennett has died. He's been a great friend and incredible inspiration for me throughout my career. I will miss him enormously. dailynous.com/2024/04/19/dan…
Very good piece on AI risk by @Jackstilgoe science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
😲 (but actually not surprising) ⬇️
The New Yorker article, "Among the AI Doomsayers" by @andrewmarantz is generally pretty good, but recounts the scary-sounding story below. BUT -- importantly, that's NOT what really happened. For the real (much less scary) story, see my post about it: aiguide.substack.com/p/did-gpt-4-hi…
Quote below is from nytimes.com/2024/04/15/tec… in NY Times today. What evidence is there for this claim, besides "I talked to a chatbot and it seemed humanlike"? When given an actual Turing Test, chatbots tend to fail (arxiv.org/abs/2310.20216)
Thrilled to share a review on THE LANGUAGE NETWORK AS A NATURAL KIND—a culmination of ~20 yrs of thinking about+studying language from linguistic, psycholinguistic, and cog neuro perspectives. @NatRevNeurosci rdcu.be/dEylV With the amazing @neuranna @tamaregev 🥳 🧵1/n
Highly recommended!
Relying on huge amounts of training data is not sustainable, and it may even be dangerous. This is one of the many reasons why AI should learn from how children develop: they learn so much from so little!

Announcing our Final Line-Up & Reduced Prices: Spring Summit on Fundamental Challenges for AI! bit.ly/springsummitai… We discuss core challenges & promising avenues in a day of high-profile keynotes & panels. Lunch & Reception included. Come & join us! April 15th,…
New preprint w/ @mcxfrank: bit.ly/3VMdl2u How can we ascribe cognitive abilities to language models? We evaluate them! But evals impose challenges separate from the underlying ability of interest. These "task demands" affect LM performance, esp. for smaller models! 1/8
🚨 DEADLINE EXTENDED! 🚨 The deadline for the 2024 #ComplexityGlobalSchool program is now April 22! 🗓️ App review will begin on April 8 and students will be chosen on a rolling basis until the 22. Priority will be given those submitted by April 8. ow.ly/UhQn50R7Otm
"Using AI for augmentation turns out to be much more effective than trying to get the machine to handle the queries alone or having the humans work alone.”

506 Followers 225 Following Don't read non-narrative non-fiction / natural history @GoogleDeepMind / “economically very literate” —former MEPI came across a copy of The Mind's I in high school and it blew my mind, still feels like an ur-text of cogsci to me (along with Brainstorms).
One little-known fact is that Dan Dennett played himself in a 1988 film based on the book "The Mind's I". The film is called "Victim of the Brain"; it contains a staging of Dan's short story "Where Am I?". Starts at 30:23 at the link below: vimeo.com/113313927
My dear and long time friend Daniel Dennett passed away today. He was a towering figure in philosophy and in particular in the philosophy of AI. Now we have only memories of him. [[And do keep up to date with your correspondence--I have a 30 day old email from him in my inbox…
One of the greatest minds of our times has died. This is a huge blow to the fields of philosophy, morality, consciousness and intelligence. I adored his teachings even though sometimes it took me years to get them. His ideas will live on. @danieldennett
Such sad news. He was a brilliant philosopher who had a profound influence on cognitive science. And he was hugely supportive to young scholars—including me, long ago. A great loss. dailynous.com/2024/04/19/dan…
RIP Daniel Dennett, my first contact with a great living philosopher during freshman yr at Tufts, & the source of endless late night conversations about brains in vats. Dennett was a brilliant philosopher of mind, an engaging public intellectual, & such a fucking great writer ❤️
@MelMitchell1 @curiouswavefn Aside from being a towering intellect, I'll also remember his as a brilliant writer -- always crystal clear, whether writing for specialists or for the layperson. (And while he had countless other skills, he was a master of shooting down bad arguments when he encountered them.)
@MelMitchell1 Indeed always such a fresh and clear voice, plus a nice person.
Sad news. He is a giant in the history of thinkers. If you have never read Darwin's Dangerous Idea, I cannot recommend it more. It's an exhilarating ride that will open your mind and make you feel like a genius. Sorry for your (and everyone's) loss @MelMitchell1
Wrenching news: Dan Dennett has died. He's been a great friend and incredible inspiration for me throughout my career. I will miss him enormously. dailynous.com/2024/04/19/dan…
@MelMitchell1 The loss of one of the greatest intellectuals of our time.
With Dan Dennett and @demishassabis in 2019. (The only time they met, I believe.) Dan will be much missed.
Daniel Dennett has died - genuinely devastated. Will forever miss his presence in the intellectual universe and our discussions. dailynous.com/2024/04/19/dan…
1. What are the ethical and societal implications of advanced AI assistants? What might change in a world with more agentic AI? Our new paper explores these questions: storage.googleapis.com/deepmind-media… It’s the result of a one year research collaboration involving 50+ researchers… a🧵
excellent report on specific comparisons with Udio's music AI. Not a good look for AI. And founders refused to say if it is trained on copyrighted music or lyrics, @ShahinKhan @MelMitchell1
@MelMitchell1 at least it seems to insist that drinking bleach is bad for you?
@MelMitchell1 Thanks for responding. I think that's pretty good evidence that my career is safe for a while longer!
I got tenure! It was fitting that I got to celebrate with the lab right after the news. Working together for the last 6.5 years has been a blast.
RNNs are not dead yet‼️ In fact, they are coming back with a vengeance recently. Very nice paper about “The Illusion of State in State-Space Models” (arxiv.org/abs/2404.08819) and thread 👇
✨Excited to finally drop our new paper: SSMs “look like” RNNs, but we show their statefulness is an illusion🪄🐇 Current SSMs cannot express basic state tracking, but a minimal change fixes this! 👀 w/ @jowenpetty, @Ashish_S_AI arxiv.org/abs/2404.08819
The concept of "AGI" (a system that can match or exceed human performance across all tasks) shares all of the defects of the Turing Test. It defines "intelligence" entirely in terms of human performance. 1/
@MelMitchell1 This is wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing!
