None of the space shuttles ever went into interplanetary space. In fact, no human has been to interplanetary space since Apollo 17 in 1972.

November 17, 2025Grok 4.1 is now available to all users on grok.com, X, and the iOS and Android apps. It is rolling out immediately in Auto mode and can be selected explicitly as "Grok 4.1" in the model picker.We are excited to introduce Grok 4.1, which brings significant improvements to the real-world usability of Grok. Our 4.1 model is exceptionally capable in creative, emotional, and collaborative interactions. It is more perceptive to nuanced intent, compelling to speak with, and coherent in personality, while fully retaining the razor-sharp intelligence and reliability of its predecessors. To achieve this, we used the same large scale reinforcement learning infrastructure that powered Grok 4 and applied it to optimize the style, personality, helpfulness, and alignment of the model. In order to optimize these non-verifiable reward signals, we developed new methods that let us use frontier agentic reasoning models as reward models to autonomously evaluate and iterate on responses at scale.https://x.ai/news/grok-4-1

If Einstein is right and both observers see each other accelerating away close to light speed how come symmetry doesn’t age them the same?
>>16849815observers are dumb as fuck lmao
u dont need acceleration for this effect. just 3 clocks spread over 2 space ships and 1 earth. synchronize earth clock with the space ship 1 clock while it passes earth and flies towards space ship 2. when both ships pass each other transfer the time from ss1 clock to ss2 clock. when ss2 passes earth compare earth clock time with ss2 clock time. earth clock wins.
>>16851993>transfer the time from ss1 clock to ss2 clockHow?
If light is so fast how do we see it?
>>16849808>because only one of them is actually acceleratingShow me where to find in the math.
On LSD years ago I saw this pattern as the order of the universehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFIyqMiycs4 what does it mean
>>16848736>>16852396>>16852393And this pic shows what a slice of that brain area looks like under a microscope.
>>16848736>>16852393And this is the principle through which objects are recognized. Each cell has an "orientation preference" (the different colours in the previous images), it's sensitive to only one single angle of light that is displayed on the retina. These cells are clustered in "orientation columns" which have a hexagonal pattern, works almost like TV pixels on old TV screens that each have Red/Green/Blue parts that vary in intensity.Whenever certain combinations of these simple orientations occur, a cell sensitive only to that specific combination activates, a more "complex" cell. Then, you have another layer of even more complex cells than that, that only respond to specific combinations of those first complex cells. And then another, then another, and another, all the way up until complex objects.You can imagine what a chaos it would be if all these cells started sending their information to your consciousness, instead of pooling it together towards the highest layer of "complexity" which are actual objects.And that's what happens when you take things like LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, DMT, etc.
>>16852399And one final illustrationHope that helps OP
>>16848736>>16852393Also, can't believe I forgot about this image, I'm retarded.
the only things that exist are light and nothingness, the relationship between the two is a fractal and that's how the massive scales of reality exist

what do you think is the most efficient way to study using artificial intelligence?
>>16852622but I, I, I want to be the protagonist no AI
>>16852625You can still be the protagonist, but you must do what the narrator tells you to do.
>>16852572>>16852624also thisI pretty much taught myself AP calculus in high school on my own using chatgpt because my teacher was a fucking retard, and those were the early models from years agojust ask it questions and then ask it to generate quizzes for you and it's like having your own free tutor who has infinite patience with your human stupidity
>>16852631Are you like legitimately retarded?
>>16852635no, but I think you might be if you had some trouble understanding anything I just said
all the other tests are shit (outside of mensa), take this onehttps://openpsychometrics.org/tests/FSIQ/
>>16843130160 is possible
>>16827884I've done this test before and get between 141 and 145.Not that it matters as I'm an uneducated, unemployed tard with no impulse control, so either iq testing is bullshit and let's morons like me through or iq alone isn't a valuable metric.
>>16843631it's kinda like you're saying caffeine makes you faster lol. You do need enough energy, but I hate the way meth makes people act. I don't even like how I act on caffeine. I try not to but there's a chance I will just say or do something idk too assertive and in the wrong moment that is a murder fr. They've shown that caffeine impairs hippocampus based learning. It puts you on autopilot to some extent which helps you grind out your chores. But there are boosts and real improvements. You should definitely focus on anything that can really improve your iq even just in short term but as high as your iq might be and as fast as you can solve some issues idk I'm a speed freak myself but you should still exercise patience sometimes to get the best result and caffeine will fr work against you
>>16852581High iq people should actually get used but low iq people are too stupid, we should actually all get rounded up and forced to answer questions bc we won't do it ourselves
>>16848390yeah shit is crazy but 140 did sound a little low like no way am I only 140. In the grand scheme of things iq range is more like at least negative 1000 to positive 1000
One day we will discover a non-material universe, right under our noses, and we will make dyson spheres look like cave paintings, what was confusing will be obvious, if only we survive.
>>16852545there are other planes but theyre too subtle to access. we cant know anything about them or draw power from them.
Imagine actually believing your narrative matters when scientific realism has already exposed human existence as a transient, accidental glitch in a universe that is completely indifferent to you. You're still clinging to the manifest image of having beliefs, desires, and a self, but neurophysiology proves that personhood is just a radically false theoretical construct used to cope with being a complex physical system that has no inherent purpose. Even your ambition is a lie. Freud called it, the will to power is just a mask for the death drive because all organic life is just a circuitous detour striving to return to an inorganic state. There is no necessary reason for any of this, just absolute contingency and chaos until solar catastrophe inevitably incinerates the very possibility of thought, guaranteeing that nothing you ever did, felt, or thought will have mattered. Stop looking for a "reason" in a reality defined by un-reason and just accept the void.
>>16852313This coming from the guy who believes in absurd notions like causality. SAD. Many such cases.
>>16852313Not one knows why are how we are here, but the fact that we are here at all is enough
>>16852442>whyclearly a consequence

at worst there is a lot of slavery but at least if you aren't a slave then life is just a big video game. And you might not want to necessarily treat it like that but to some extent you want to increase your skills, learn to build planes so you can fly etc
how does this make any fucking sense?
>>16848104the reason a lot of space shit sounds so ridiculous is because the true answer is >we dont fucking know heres our best guess
>>16847786Does anyone wonder what a neutron star would feel like to touch if we could touch it? >>16847790It's pretty fucking absurd.>The mean density of a neutron star is approximately \(10^{15}\) grams per cubic centimeter (\(g/cm^{3}\)), a density similar to that of an atomic nucleus. This extreme density means a teaspoon of neutron star material would weigh about 6 billion tons.>The mean density of the Earth is approximately \(5.51\) to \(5.52\) grams per cubic centimeter (\(g/cm^{3}\)).
>>16848089I don’t know what that means.
What is a black hole made out of? What would it feel like to touch it?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21EYKqUsPfg [Embed]Indian podcaster Dwarkesh Patel debates the 'father of reinforcement learning' Prof. Richard Sutton on whether LLMs are a dead-end.Sutton believes so, while Dwarkesh Patel proclaims LLMs are the foundation on which experiential learning can happen, citing recent LLM models' success at high-school math problems. Patel claims humans all learn by imitation too.The following exchange summarizes the debate:>Patel: But there are phases of learning where there's the programming in your biology early on, you're not that useful. And then kind of why you exist is to understand the world and learn how to interact with it. It seems like a training phase [in LLMs].>Sutton: There's NOTHING where you have training of what you should do; there's nothing. You see things that happen, you're not told what to do. Don't be difficult, I mean, this is obvious.>Patel: I-I mean you're literally taught what to do, this is where the word training comes from, from humans.>Sutton: I don't think learning is really about training, I think learning is about learning, an active process. The child tries things and sees what happens. We don't think about training when we think of an infant growing upWhat's /sci/'s verdict? Who won?Is Dwarkesh Patel right in saying humans are literally taught what to do the moment they're born? Is all learning just imitation?
LLM=/=AIChatGPT can use a calculator this alone shows its not a pure llm which makes this entire debate pointless
