“This is the Edgeworth expansion idea from the classical CLT applied to deep networks. The para-Gaussian achieves an error rate of O(1/n²) instead of the Gaussian’s O(1/n), which matters more and more as depth increases. Check out arxiv.org/abs/2610.37388 fo…” evidence ↗

Ted Underwood: whatever secret training software engineers are receiving that allows them to evaluate—and change—previous opinions, it's really something we should consider trying on academics
Ted Underwood: it's just very notable that a lot of explicitly AI-skeptical engineers performed a kind of transformation over the last twelve months where they almost "changed," so to speak, "their mind" — though…

Hagen Blix: Yup. 💯 And now he's also selling people on the idea that, ultimately, capitalism will just solve the problem on its own. Take comfort in the market!
Hagen Blix: Come on, it's not like these guys are connected to the US military? It's not like Amodei and Altman are giving speeches about their preferred geopolitical developments to the UN, or giving huge amo…
