      Without knowing how to calculate in advance what that function is, that is without being able to write down a formula for it like, we can still think about it. There's also a similar function that measures how fast your AI is GETTING smarter. 2/

      So on Tuesday at 2:01 it was 100 smart, and getting smarter at 2 smartnesses per hour. The latter function is called "the derivative" of the first one. It's the rate at which the first one is changing. 3/

      If you think for a moment you will guess that "how fast is it getting smarter" probably depends on a bunch of shit, but also on "how smart is it right now" There's a relationship, in other words, between the function and its derivative. 4/

      DiffEq is the study of how to take a such relationships and find solutions (either an actual formula, or a way to calculate efficiently) what the actual functions are. So a solution here is a way to calculate how smart our AI will be at arbitrary points in the future. 5/

      Fun fact: In the real world almost all solutions to this class of problem are periodic. Solutions typically start out with exponential growth, and then settle into a back-and-forth swinging. Or they drop to zero and stay there. 6/

      The naive extrapolation of rates of change is so easy to dunk on It's like the xkcd joke about "Why I shouldn't be allowed to officiate weddings"

      Years ago, I saw an article saying that ten people had been eaten by alligators in Florida that year, compared to just one the year before. I noted that, at that rate of increase, it’d be less than a decade before everyone in the world had been eaten by alligators in Florida.

          Starry-eyed tech optimism is their culture, it's their religion, it's their hustle It's the whole basis of their argument that they're going to change the world and fix everything and people should give them all their money

          "Luddite" in Silicon Valley is like "atheist" in the Church It doesn't just describe someone who disagrees with you, it means a *bad person*, someone who's the problem, someone who's dragging the human race down and keeping us from having nice things

          I was uh engaging with @plzbesensible in my DMs and one of their arguments was that Scott as psychiatrist knows what’s best for his patients and he says it would be bad for them to reveal HIS name. Where to begin with that one
