Academia.edu reminds me weekly that there are at least two other Christopher Marcums writing on topics that I myself have written on (in scholarly publishing and gerontology, respectively), somewhere out there. If it's not in my @ORCID_Org I didn't write it. #openscience


Wir trauern um Margot Friedländer. 🕯️
Sie hat als Holocaust-Überlebende an das erinnert, was war, und an das, was nie wieder sein darf. Ihre Worte waren eindringlich, ihr Mut unerschütterlich.
Jetzt liegt es an uns, ihr Vermächtnis weiterzutragen.
„Versucht, Menschen zu sein.“ – dieser Appell von ihr ist heute so wichtig wie nie.
Wir dürfen nicht vergessen.
Wir müssen erinnern, sprechen, widersprechen.
Und wir müssen handeln – gegen Hass, Ausgrenzung und das Vergessen.

Ruhe in Frieden, Margot.

Interesting signs/notices/labels for #fotovorschlag

May not interesting, but it made me laugh - because I am mentally still a teenager 😂
It's an antique/bit of everything shop - at least from the windows that's what it looks like! It has always been closed when I've passed it! 😂✨

This isn’t just about purging non-loyalists. It’s just more Trump favors for the tech industry that wants AI output to be copyrightable.

A reasonable perspective. It will be ignored by all the people inflamed by unreasoning hatred.

"When the Trump administration shut down Voice of America in March, it silenced one of the few sources of accurate information in countries without a free press," James P. Rubin writes.

"What’s worse is that American defenses against foreign disinformation are being eliminated as well." wapo.st/4iPWIKY

"Neurons in brains use timing and synchronization in the way that they compute. This property seems essential for the flexibility and adaptability of biological intelligence. Modern AI systems discard this fundamental property in favor of efficiency and simplicity. We found a way of bridging the gap between the existing powerful implementations and scalability of modern AI, and the biological plausibility paradigm where neuron timing matters. The results have been surprising and encouraging.
(...)
We introduce the Continuous Thought Machine (CTM), a novel neural network architecture designed to explicitly incorporate neural timing as a foundational element. Our contributions are as follows:

- We introduce a decoupled internal dimension, a novel approach to modeling the temporal evolution of neural activity. We view this dimension as that over which thought can unfold in an artificial neural system, hence the choice of nomenclature.

- We provide a mid-level abstraction for neurons, which we call neuron-level models (NLMs), where every neuron has its own internal weights that process a history of incoming signals (i.e., pre-activations) to activate (as opposed to a static ReLU, for example).

- We use neural synchronization directly as the latent representation with which the CTM observes (e.g., through an attention query) and predicts (e.g., via a projection to logits). This biologically-inspired design choice puts forward neural activity as the crucial element for any manifestation of intelligence the CTM might demonstrate."

And Valve doesn't need a SteamDeck 2 to achieve that... Looks like maybe some people should learn a thing or two about how the hardware horsepower race kills the industry...
