To use MathJaX, put your TeX code between [ math ] ... [ /math ] tags for inline equations or [ eqn ] ... [ /eqn ] tags for block equations.

[eqn]\zeta(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^s} = \frac{1}{\Gamma(s)}\int_0^{\infty} \frac{x^{s - 1}}{e^x - 1} \mathrm dx[/eqn]

Note: You may preview the output by clicking the TeX button at the top left corner in the quick reply window.

Additional supported file type on /sci/ is PDF.

I have no scientific proof of this besides the fact that lack of nutrition leads to stunted growth.

For comparison, look at asians that grew up in the west on a whole foods diet and the ones that stayed in their homeland. The westernized asians have huge monstrous faces in comparison to softer neotenous faces of their eastern counterparts. The eastern diet lacks proper nutrition and high in estrogen leading to more feminine features overall.
I know they get plastic surgery to look more neotenous but fresh off the boat asians are more youthful looking in comparison to their western counterparts.

I have no doubt that part of the reasons why idols look that way is because they were intentionally put on a diet that prevents their faces from developing. They're recruited at such an early age that knowing how they'll end up like after puberty is unpredictable.

My question is if one would be able to manipulate facial growth in order to prevent facial maturity through malnutrition?

Here's a video of a 23 year old starving north korean woman. As you can see her face and voice are very childlike.

Search up slow life vs fast life history. Asians have a slow life history fertility cycle which leads to a retention of youthful looks because they are most likely to mate later on in life. In terms of fast life history the slowest would be Asians followed by Whites. The fastest would be Africans and Aboriginal Australians in terms of human reproduction.

Alright, maybe not, I do a lot, but also much not, as prior it becomes very "Physics-y". Much easier to describe is broad notions than "understandable perspectives", as the interpretations seem happen at the brain.

We do not know exactly how life arose, bu the only alternative to abiogenesis is supernatural creation and there is zero credible evidence for anything supernatural existing. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence which the supernatural fags failed to provide, so abiogenesis is still the most probable explanation.

Are you referring to the parenthesized "s" after I said "race"? I only included that due to sub-saharan being a rather vague racial descriptor.

I'm assuming you mean the Ashkenazim. I will admit that I have considered that this might be related to the seeming obsession they have with black people.

>Scientists who engage in AI-augmented research publish 3.02 times more papers, receive 4.84 times more citations and become research project leaders 1.37 years earlier than those who do not. By contrast, AI adoption shrinks the collective volume of scientific topics studied by 4.63% and decreases scientists’ engagement with one another by 22%.

What do you make of this? I've been watching my mom go from a mediocre researcher (by her own admission) to a productive one with the help of AI, and I'm curious if you've seen similar situations in your neck of the woods.

Honestly, these attempts to normalize AI are pathetic. I don’t know how Steve Hsu did it, but the stuff that Tao did was literally consulting a magic 8 ball for random ideas. Ideas that he would come up himself naturally.
I don’t like the word. But it’s a fucking psyop. Either they did it as a favor or they were bribed/blackmailed to praise AI in public. In Tao’s case, it’s probably both. Old colleagues in Microsoft Research and microsoft money.
The whole thing is disgusting.

>>16893645
Everything related to AI use comes down to a simple question: Does the person using it understand what they're researching enough both verify and effectively apply generated content?

There's a very, very broad line between the people who use AI to do literature searches and then take the time to verify all the papers it finds and the summaries it produces, or the people who use it to generate code and then actually parse through what it generates and confirms what each line does and how it fits together, and so on... and the schizos who just prompt AI to shit out some garbage numerological music of the spheres spiritualist mumbo jumbo quackery and then dump it on /sci/ or reddit or wherever and declare that they've "solved science".

No. It comes down to the question of whether or not they understand how this technology works. And the answer is almost always 'no'. Because they did, they wouldn't be using it for "science".
