  @_david_ho_ Have you checked what gender each of them identifies as, or are you just assuming their genders based on their appearance? (Tip: When publicly enforcing orthodoxy, you have to be careful not to leave room for someone to one up you by being even more orthodox.)

  Finally launched x.ai! The mathematics of deep learning is profound, beautiful, and unreasonably effective. Developing the “theory of everything” for large neural networks will be central to taking AI to the next level. Conversely, this AI will enable everyone to understand our m…

  It's wild to realize that the massive corpus of Twitter data we've all generated over the years is now... just a training data set for a new AI project 😱 there's no free lunch https://www.theverge.com/...

  We are going to embed https://x.ai/ right into Twitter so you can just Tweet at the AI to ask it questions. Much more seamless than ChatGPT.

  I'm excited to share we have officially launched https://x.ai/ (@xai), my AI company! Our mission is to understand the universe. Can't wait for Zuck to hit copy and paste on this too! [image]

  New AI company xAI was just announced by @elonmusk. It shares a common goal with me and maybe 7 billion other people: To understand the true nature of the universe. Pretty amazing team, I look forward to tracking. Follow at: @xAI and see site at https://x.ai/ [image]

  @xai And what are the most fundamental unknown questions? Once you know the right question to ask, the answer is often the easy part, as my hero, Douglas Adams, would say. [image]

  Move over, physics. AI is now the field that studies the fundamental nature of the universe. https://x.ai/

• @iamtimnguyen Timothy Nguyen on x

  Fantastic to see Greg, a fellow mathematician, start an AI company. Obviously if you interview at https://x.ai/ then a prerequisite will be an understanding of his Tensor Programs work as covered on The Cartesian Cafe: https://www.youtube.com/... https://twitter.com/...

• @marshallk Marshall Kirkpatrick on x

  Musk launches website for xAI “to understand the true nature of the universe.” My take: That sounds like a Positivist assumption that there is one true reality that can be broken down into overriding laws. That's no longer assumed in hard or soft sciences https://www.theverge.com…
