text predictors could accelerate the jump towards a better paradigm. although i don't know if that is what the people working at the frontier labs expect

ordered hexagonal honeybee honeycombs vs messy, cylindrical melipona honeycombs

On this flower patch all the other bees were flying, only this one was climbing from flower to flower. did she realize the energy cost of flight and decided to walk? is she smart? is she stupid? did parasite load force her to do this?

ok claude knows, and seems to have a lot of affection for the people in that group

search for enlightenment not going well

i see. i just blindly stepped into something

where does one find guys like that?

wish this was in an electrical engineering instead of philosophy journal

the apian body is objectively more aesthetically superior when the distorting lens of lust is removed

white winged black tyrant is a very yu-gi-oh name for a bird. also happens to fit its role in this paper

Genomic adaptations for tail-length evolution in arboreal snakes Abstract. Adaptation to arboreal environments requires overcoming gravitational constraints, driving repeated morphological innovations across snake lineag

after all knolwedge work has been automated, someone still needs to measure the distance between snake anus and tail tip

yes that is the one. to be interesting you need to be predictable enough for the reader to learn a pattern, but not so predictable that you become stale

i looked at the schmidhuber paper, if im understanding it correctly, i should just speak in wordsalad if i wanted to maximize novelty, at the cost of interestingness?

motivation to post more to get a more meaningful result from this

the distinction is that the ginkgo fruits outher layer develops from the seed itself, while in angiosperms the fleshy outer layer develops from the ovary wall

im sorry if this is widely known information, but one thing i also find interesting is that ginkgo trees have independently developed a fruit like structure similar to the fruits of flowering plants, while itself not being a flowering plant.

they have a certain cuteness to them. i could see them as a plushie with button eyes and smiley face

of course, why not

definitely a deepcut pyhlum for me, although that is true for anything that isnt a chordate, panarthropod, annelid or mollusc

i dont know why im so into all this genomic structure stuff. i dont get it at all. and every lineage just does its own thing, not like there are many repeating patterns or things to anchor myself on

also important to note that novel genes of course arent unheard of, but regulation reigns supreme

ähhh almost everything, but concrete examples: transition from chimp-like apes to humans. insect wing variation. finches adapting their beaks to specific diets, squamate reptiles expanding their hox-cluster regulatory regions relative to other vertebrates

i like the construction worker analogy take the exact same team of construction workers and materials but swap out the architect and you will get two different buildings

that is actually a real benchmark on which claude outperforms most other models. it actually kind of does prove something, probably not what said llm hater intended though petergpt.github.io/bullshit-ben...

our metabolisms are similar in that most of the genes are conserved. you take a random metabolic gene from a hummingbird and can point to an almost identical one in humans. but functionally they are very different because of minor sequence changes but mostly because of regulation
