There's a recent algorithm using somewhat similar ideas for approximate counting of unique objects in a stream with constant memory:

The article isn't about automatic proofs, but it'd be interesting to see a LLM that can write formal proofs in Coq/Lean/whatever and call external computer algebra systems like SageMath or Mathematica.

I see, thanks. Will check. I just thought perhaps you figured out something other than those from your experience.

Any guidance on choosing appropriate conservative settings for i7-13700K? I may be hit with the same as you in the future (sometimes I have to do some heavy multithreaded combinatorial computations which run several days with 100°C temperature, using all cores). The motherboard has options for customising pretty much everything there is, but I didn't touch anything overclocking-related, so I have Asus defaults.

I'm still waiting for the day when actual ads across the internet drown in AI-generated advertisements pointing to no real product or service. Perhaps that'll make attention industry collapse?

If you're looking for a side project idea, here's one.

The exact definition of sanity is a cultural choice.

it cuts out the middle man of having to find facts on your own

Nope.

Even without corporate tuning or filtering.

A language model is useful when you know what to expect from it, but it's just another kind of secondary information source, not an oracle. In some sense it draws random narratives from the noosphere.

And if you give it search results as part of input in hope of increasing its reliability, how will you know they haven't been manipulated by SEO? Search engines are slowly failing these days. A language model won't recognise new kinds of bullshit as readily as you.

Education is still important.

Disabling root login and password auth, using a non-standard port and updating regularly works for me for this exact use case.

I've never encountered a keyboard app with UI/UX comparable to Fleksy, so that's what I use (and UI/UX is everything for a keyboard).

The settings became a bit silly in terms of UI in the course of updates though, I mean specifically the keyboard itself.

"Like Pac Man but in every direction" sounds more like a projective plane to me.

Now you have projective-plane-earthers!
