All I need now is a model that will translate all the Russians in #CounterStrike for me :D

I'm a little puzzled at the salience that is being given to the Apple conclusions on #LLM #reasoning when we have lots of prior art. For example: LLMs cannot correctly infer a is b, if their corpora only contain b is a. #Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2309.12288

Exploring the Consciousness of AI Systems

A fascinating article that examines the question of whether current or future AI systems might have consciousness. The paper, titled "Consciousness in Artificial Intelligence: Insights from the Science of Consciousnesss", was authored by a team of leading researchers in the fields of AI, neuroscience, and philosophy of mind.

This is a thought-provoking and timely article that delves into one of the central questions in the field of artificial intelligence - the nature of machine consciousness. I encourage anyone interested in the intersection of AI, neuroscience, and philosophy of mind to read the full paper, which provides valuable insights and a framework for evaluating the consciousness of AI systems.

The article can be found on the preprint server arXiv at the following link:

arxiv.org/abs/2308.08708

Ok, in an hour, i'll be starting this up. High temps, high effort and high complexity, what oculd go wrong? Let's dig into the #screenReader #accessibility of #jupyter notebooks, a tool prevalent in #dataScience, #python #programming in general, #machineLearning and therefore also practically all things #ai etc.
See you then over at twitch.tv/ic_null and youtube.com/@blindlycoding #goingLive #twitch #youtube #selfPromo


I can already announce that next IC_Null stream, this tuesday at 3 PM EST, is about the #accessibility of notebooks like #Jupyter, #googleColab, the #VSCode implementation of this concept. If you do #dataScience, #machineLearning, even the polarizing #AI stuff, you are going to run into this at some point. Can a #screenReader user use these properly? Where's the #accessibility hurdles? Do any of these work better than the others? These are all things I'll try to go into.
See you Tuesday, 3 PM ESt over at https;//twitch.tv/ic_null or youtube.com/@blindlyCoding #selfPromo


So... I made noise on their official discussion spot. That means I'm locked in. uh oh :P discourse.jupyter.org/t/stream… :P #dataScience #AI #MachineLearning #jupyter #notebooks #Python #programming #selfPromo #twitch

Editted to fix link. Please boost for reach if this kind of stuff interests you. Will post more on this later.

Once upon a time, there was a cool emulator frontend called Retroarch. This emulator wasn't accessible until I and a few other gamers went to them and asked about adding accessibility. An amazing person known as BarryR made it happen. Now, if you turn on accessibility mode in settings, or pass the "--accessibility" (or something like that) flag on the command line, you get spoken menus, including the emulator's pause menu, good for saving states and such. Then, using PIL and other image processing Python utilities, running a server and hooking into Retroarch, the script allowed players to move around the map, battle, talk to NPC's, ETC. The only problem was, no one wanted to test it. The blind gaming community pretty much spoke, saying that we want new games. We want cool new, easy accessibility. So that's what we have no, follow the beacon or get sighted help in the case of diablo and such. It's sad, but meh. It's what we wanted I guess. No Zelda for us. So, this is about as far as he got:

To expand on what devinprater was saying: I am working on an accessibility pack/service for Final Fantasy 1 for the NES (this was what was shown in the latest RetroArch update). The idea is similar to how Pokemon Crystal access works, but it's using the RetroArch AI Service interface to do so.
Right now, the FF1 access service is mostly done, but I need more testers to try it out and give me feedback on how it's working. Right now, you can get up to the point where you get the ship, but there's no code to deal with how the ship moves, so that still needs to be done. Likewise with the airship later on.
The service works the latest version of RetroArch, on linux and mac, but not windows. This is due to how nvda reads out the text and until the next major update to nvda (which will have a feature to fix this), it'll have to wait. If you have those, I (or maybe devinprater) can help you set it up on mac/linux to test out. The package itself is available at: (new link cause old one broke yesterday): dropbox.com/scl/fi/ggffl769fx6…

This is proper use of machine learning as opposed to the idiocy we see in the west.

These systems are great at correlating a lot of data and noticing patterns, and then alerting humans to do stuff like proactive maintenance.

This program from Australian radio examines the role of photography in the development of machine learning models. Interestingly, of greatest value to data scientists is found not in the work of professional or artistic photographers, but in images taken of whatever is in view of the camera as one goes about daily activities, then uploaded to the Web by the thousand. Indeed, a photographer who did exactly this is credited for his substantial, though unwitting, contributions to AI.
As a blind person, I expect to benefit from advances in computer vision and image analysis. Nevertheless, I wish the providers of the data were better compensated and properly acknowledged. I don't think copyright law is the right vehicle for this, but that's a separate issue.

This one has different methodologies and philosophies that try to mitigate some of the ethical issues with other similar #GenerativeAI programming systems.

Hugging Face and ServiceNow Research release StarCoder, a free alternative to code-generating #AI like GitHub's #Copilot, as part of the #BigCode project.

Wait, if this scales up would this let us run these things on, say, our phones? If it replaces the transformer, could it replace other uses of the transformer, like Whisper? If it can do that and deliver equivalent or better results for those kinds of speed-ups, ML applications on edge computing will explode, again. And given the accessibility benefits of some existing tech, imagine being able to run that on something other than the cloud!
