mycall··on Qwen 3.8 27B on my laptop can interpret model weights, too
The deeper the layers you try to edit, the more compressed it gets, and the harder it is edit.

Would something like LMCache help here?

mycall··on Nvidia – open-source auto-ontology
As a native speaker, I read this as "This controls enabling or disabling of all analytic features used by AI model loops"

Now there are times when I let the model keep its own docs in its own language, for its own future reference; but, it is not intended for human distribution due to its odd selection of words and phrases (aka slop).

mycall··on Polyend releases the Tracker firmware source code
It makes sense as Polyend's competitor, Synthstrom, has been open source for a while already.

> "next token predictor" has always referred to inference

Going back to first principles, wikipedia mentions [0] inference as:

> "Inferences are steps in logical reasoning, moving from premises to logical consequences. Inference is traditionally divided into deduction and induction"

Is that exactly what next token predictor means, or is it correlated?

mycall··on The future in old computer magazines (1984–2004)
At this point, the working class, who imagine themselves as possible-future CEOs, will try to extract the same wealth generation out of the tech when possible now that they have seen people get ungodly wealthy through tech. Humans are opportunists.

Of course, there are outliers who use tech individually to improve the human/world experience, but it isn't the norm.

mycall··on Anthropic reports $17B in Q3 revenue, commitments of $895B in revised S-1
How do you define value?

> strict environment with very clearly defined goals and constraints

This defined a huge set of possible work.

Have multiple $200 subs and just use Codex as the intermediary, save yourself $90k-$110k

Similar to zero knowledge proof (ZNP) and its use cases?

mycall··on Sleep framework: A new way for LLMs to retain knowledge in continual learning
I agree, where world models, e.g. JEPA, JSpace, etc, will have qualities that could be extracted to further compress the DIKW pyramid evolution, but separate from automata processes. It reminds me of interplay of the Human brain is two organisms idea [0].

> What AI can do at most — is to demonstrate our level of thinking.

It just processes data, so change the data and it will produce different aggregate data, as in y=f(x). We just feed it the internet, so it spits out (mimics) internet as its derivatives. You are only personifying the current state of affairs.
