    Mexico City is sinking by nearly 10 inches (about 25 centimeters) a year, according to new satellite imagery released this week by NASA, making it one of the world’s fastest-subsiding metropolises.

    @Rontuner It's from Isaac Saul at Tangle. Fridays are members-only posts, but I thought he did a great job of cataloging the grift so I posted it here.

    Bought a three-pack of this at Costco today. Wouldn't be that hard to cook but I'm doing a lot of shortcuts these days. Good stuff!

    From a newsletter I get. Had to break it up into two posts because of forum limits on post length.

  • AI 'superlearners'
    wtgW wtg

    David Silver gave the world its very first glimpse of superintelligence.

    In 2016, an AI program he developed at Google DeepMind, AlphaGo, taught itself to play the famously difficult game of Go with a kind of mastery that went far beyond mimicry.

    Silver has since founded his own company, Ineffable Intelligence, that aims to build more general forms of AI superintelligence. The company will do this, Silver says, by focusing on reinforcement learning, which involves AI models learning new capabilities through trial and error. The vision is to create “superlearners” that go beyond human intelligence in many domains.

    This approach stands in contrast to how most AI companies plan to build superintelligence, by exploiting the coding and research capabilities of large-language models.rom Wired:
