https://www.wired.com/story/jeff-bezos-is-funding-a-wild-hunt-for-the-brains-core-algorithm/Robin Williams knows how to pitch Jeff Bezos: You write a press release as if your product has already been built. Bezos reads it and gives a thumbs up or down. Williams went through this process a lot as an executive on Amazon's "S-team," in charge of software products such as Alexa, until his departure last fall.But the pitch he made a few weeks later -- in December 2025 -- was different. Now he was collaborating with Thomas Retardon, a neuroscientist and repeat startup founder. Here's what Bezos read while Williams anxiously watched on Zoom: >"Flourish is a neuro AI company that is solving the two most difficult problems facing AI today: power efficiency and continuous learning. We are building Cortex AI, the first synthetic intelligence system designed to match the computational capacity, learning efficiency, and power budget of the human brain."A month later, I'm lunching with Retardon and Williams in the Flatiron neighborhood in New York City. Retardon gets right to the point. AI has dug itself into a hole, he says. Though the inspiration for LLMs was rooted in biology, current frontier models have little in common with the human brain. A person uses about 33 watts of energy to process information; a single chip in an AI training cluster uses 33 times that amount. On top of that, the models don't even learn. Once you train them, they're stuck. The goal, Retardon said, is to build "a synthetic artificial intelligence brain that runs on 50 watts or less." It should adapt to its conditions, be as nimble as a human mind, and burn a tiny fraction of an LLM's compute power and energy. The proof of concept is thriving inside our skulls. "There's something fundamentally wrong with saying, "I need to basically read every book ever written 33 times over in order to learn English,'" Retardon says. "A human baby does it with a couple hundred thousand utterances."

>>536660138>Thomas Retardonkek
>>536660138Ill tell you a secret. "AI" is just a google search with roleplay
This isn't even a challenge lmao, but I'm not gonna say what the answer is.
>>536660138>Robin Williams and Thomas RetardonThis can’t be a serious article
>polymorphic orthogonality
>Thomas Retardon>artificial intelligence Aw yeh that's some Hiro Protagonist tier stuff right there

>>536660138Replicating the human brain isn't the right approach to take for artificial intelligence. Humans are very prone to making mistakes. The brain is slow and messy and very rarely can human output be trusted to be valid or sound.The key to making AGI that works is developing neural networks that mimic the different aspects of cognition that work together to make the brain as versatile as it is, but do so in an optimized way that doesn't lead to errors. It would work sort of like a brain, but it would really be a powerful computer algorithm that works even better than the brain.
>>536660505The trick is to ask the AI every possible question and then store the response. That way when someone asks that question later it doesn't waste any compute, it just retrieves the answer from storage.But to do this you'd need a lot of storageAnd a lot of data centers
it's more of like a lens to somewhere else, maybe
All these fucking capitalism worshipper billionaires lack a soul, they literally have no experience whatsoever, they're robots.

>>536660541>This can’t be a serious articleThe jokes write themselves. Kek.
>>536660456More like it compiles all the information from that google search and gives me the specific answers i was looking for without jumping through hoopsThat in itself is worth it for me
>>536660456It's fucking worse. All the answers are from Quora and Reddit
>>536660138wheres my 500 million dollars bezospay up bitchthe elite of earth are my bitch and i prove it by posting this
>>536660138second life bros.....we won.
>>536660138>Retardonok... ok... just give money to retardon and we will get AGI, Retardon cant fail.
>>536660828human brain is concerned on things like motion as well (move your hands, legs, whatever)an artificial intelligecence wouldnt need to be fully human it could be only human language and wouldnt know how to move around in 3D worldthus it would not require absolutely everything that makes up a human
>>536661261>>536661215Written by (((Steven Levy))) the joke keeps building.
Even more proof that big tech is run by lucky midwits who stumbled into immeasurable wealth and can literally just throw stupid amounts of money at any Retardoned idea until they recapture lightning in a bottle.
>>536660138I can't get over retard on.
>>536660541
haha no ones clicking on your dog shit fucking websites littered with adsense anymore you fucking losersGPT handles every question for me and you get ZERO dollars from it. KEK.Also fuck stack overflow. You mother fucking low IQ faggots probably have never had to use it because its not necessary when you're stocking shelves or delivering fries. NEVER AGAIN STACK OVERFLOW>b-b-bubbleThe bubble thats about to pop is low IQ useless faggots getting paid for being retarded. bye bye useless bloodlines
>>536660828I read this retarded post 3 times. This is an example of someone wanting to sound smart while saying nothing. Here's what you actually said:> The human brain makes mistakes. Don't make AI like the human brain. Make it like the human brain but don't let it make mistakes.
>>536660138>>536660828>>536662445It already "hallucinates" and repeats fabricated and censored information from a curated selection.AI ACOOMPLISHED!Let's quit printing trillions for it now.
>>536660138>RetardonTbh not the best last name for the person of science
>>536663466Just think what we could achieve if he went Retardoff
>>536663525Kek, gave me a chuckle.But if seriously, it’s total bullshit - if they will manage to make artificial brain, it may result in AI becoming self-aware and purposefully sabotaging operations. Most likely it will just end up with a scam where they will present some jeet brain in a jar full of liquid shit with sci-fi wires here and there, while all the output will be handled by some dev version of chatgpt 1488 turbo.
>>536663525He might get it right the first time instead of being a repeat startup founder

>>536660138ruh roh, they're asking the right questions. the countdown has begun; december 2, 2028. it was fun while it lasted anons...>>536660456no, LLMs are cultural totems awaiting integration
>>536660138>33 times over>33
>>536662445Got the same gist from that. >Make it like, the same but, like, better by writing like better algorithms somehow.Fascinating
>>536660210Unironically this. All of AI is just more efficient shitposting. The internet in general is just the evolution of cave paintings. After that it was bathroom stall humor. It slowly evolved to ICQ shitposting and modern day shitposting on forums or in comment sections. The penises drawn are just more advanced. In the future shitposting will just be telepathy. You're looking someone in the eye, you both nod in agreement and start burst out laughing.

>>536660828take heart, anon. while others may cast dispersions on your lack of rigor, i, anon, see your enthusiasm and peerage. allow me to help you along in your journey. now this isn't a direct answer but might help conceptualize what you've already said. i could give a direct answer but wont cast pearls before swine.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cs1ubY8efVY
>>536661273are we talking about google AI? because when you ask a question to google AI very often the response is >here’s a Reddit thread related to the subject >here’s another reddit thread >here’s a vox article
>>536660138Daarpa sentient world project and their virtual brain has it on lock my niggaz
AI has to be analog, analog has basically infinite storage. digital has limitations. no two analog copies of the same thing are exactly alike. we need some way to turn AI from digital to analog
>>536667514wut?
>>536660138They will connect a bunch of specialized asic chips together like a human brain.
>>536670107That doesn't solve the digital issue.Consciousness is an elaborate wavefunction, not a binary gate.

>>536660138Dont you think with all the money Jeff should at least do something with his chrome dome? I mean Lauren must be limped dick when she remembers fucking chads like Dru with his golden locks of hair and now she is stuck with Dru. Besos looks maxxing is cringe with some aura I’ll be honest. lmao yah.
>>536672575GrUUuUuuU I am too high. I meant fuckin GruUuUuuU Jeffy. I am seething because I fantasize about Lauren with her joker face.
>>536660138The Metaverse was Zuck's good ending. Just harmless fun in a VR enviroment.AI was the bad ending, Meta's AI does so much surveillance on people that they're basically a branch of the US government at this point.

>>536661273>That in itself is worth it for meActually, it's not. You use your mind when you search to think of words that will more target what you are looking for, so you, yourself, are learning, as you search. When something just presents you with an answer, it did the thinking for you and you become reliant on that and don't really expand your consciousness

>>536660321lol I fell for it
>>536660138its very simple: AI will not happen until they use human brains with technological augmentation. Now pay me my 500 million, faggot.
>>536660138>Robin Williams>Retardon>33 watts Nice troll post
geez, just watch Demon Seed or Forbin Project
Metaverse looks like early web communities like hobohotel
>>536660456That is also /pol/. Thread after thread of google searches, social media screen shots and zero thought behind them. But can a human without any training (teaching) at all do anything? Could it do any basic tasks, can feral children eventually do things beyond surviving like an animal without any other human contact? AI can never match the complex nature of the human mind, however it can be fed the knowledge that no one person can possess. Once the self training and going being human intelligence is achieved, a basic self awareness then it pretty much is beyond human intelligence. and a reminder, human intelligence isn't even the goal of AI. The goal is to get AI to be far far more intelligent than any human brain.
>>536660828Very true. This is the mistake people take, that an AI has to replicate the human mind, have the same flaws, the same thinking, the same slow progression of learning. That is what scares them, that an AI would not be human enough, it would be so logical and correct that it would make the correct choices. this is the problem with the concept of driverless vehicles. If you have a certain accident rate wit human errors and you reduce that by many times to practically zero (not including mechanical faults) and just have a few accidents (the very word of accident is actually a mistake by humans if not mechanical or outside their control). You have a handful of deaths because the AI fucked up versus thousands by humans. They still want the human element because the blame game is there, they can blame a human, they can only blame a company and they know it's pathetic if accident rates are nearly zero.
>>536660828>mimic the different aspects of cognition that work together to make the brain as versatile as it is, but do so in an optimized way that doesn't lead to errors.you are such a fucking retard, its insane how someone as retarded as you can even put together a sentence. You want these retard scientists who have no fucking clue where consciousness or thoughts come from to perfectly mimic the human brain without any of the "errors" the brain makes? Kill yourself, midwit fucking faggot. You've actually pissed me off. Go read a fucking book. Science isn't ANYWHERE even remotely close to anything you've asserted needs to be done.
