iResponsible


En 100 anos (y seguramente en mucho menos), cuando la tecnología haya avanzado lo suficiente, no tendremos ninguna excusa para hacer las cosas mal o sin ganas, pero tampoco ninguna responsabilidad en nada. 

Si me agarro una cirrosis por tomar demasiado, se podra trazar el camino de las culpas, hasta llegar a alguien o algo que no sea yo mismo - algo molecular, despersonalizado. 

Y condenarlo, y corregirlo. 

Bueno o malo, este futuro de (i)responsabilidad infinitamente compartida no deja de ser perturbador.

Reinforcement Learning and the Ergodic Principle across the Multiverses

How we improve a chatbot today? instead of creating a model of the mind, just use the universe to test the answers: the reaction of one person, a thousand, a million.. that’s how a reinforcement learning chatbot would learn today. Now, let’s apply the ergodic principle. Suppose that instead of learning over time , you learn over zillions of simultaneous trials. Now suppose on top of that, that you can try an answer not over a million, not over a googolplex of people, but on an infinity of individuals. All the individuals that compose the multiverse.  Suppose that the chatbot don’t even CARE about the “meaning” of the conversation, but instead of making the person smile, and be happy, and think the chatbot is intelligent - and not only right after its answer, but on all the multiverses that emerge from that interaction (perhaps also towards the past.. but I digress).  The point is: meaning may emerge by a blind measure of a single quantity , the purpose of the co...

Real or Virtual Matter - or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Matrix

Image
On the way to the Space Elevator, an improbable view pop ups through the hyperloop oval window. It is the fleeting mirage of a floating ocean - or a gargantuan aquarium - stealing an entire city block. For a fraction of a second I can hear it, smell it, taste it... that is, I feel the seashore with all my senses. It was late afternoon, and a kaleidoscopic (virtually out-of-this-world) sunset had transfixed me, so it takes me a moment to realize that such experience was anything but real. These were not whales, dolphins and fish - just holographic projections rendered in a carefully crafted simulation (kids these days probably don’t mind the distinction; I guess I am too old not to feel cheated).  Dancing voxels of light: not a single flying fish. A short multimedia choreography took my senses by surprise, prompting that primitive part of my brain always eager to believe. These were fish - these were somehow fish - claims an inner voice rapidly gaining ground in my mind [1]. ...

Memoire, honneur et panthéon

Le rôle des monuments à la mémoire des morts est d'honorer ceux-ci, mais aussi d'éviter que les horreurs de reproduisent.  Au fait, peut être que le rôle de l'Honneur et la Mémoire (dans le sens honorifique du terme) est justement le résultat de l'évolution naturelle pour éviter que ces erreurs ne se reproduisent pas.   L'inverse positif est vraie aussi: mémoire et honneurs pour ceux qui réussissent, aidant ainsi toute la société (consciemment ou inconsciemment, malgré eux ou pas).
