@drmichaellevin.bsky.socialOur most robust scientific methods often use high-dimensions to accommodate very well-documented physical interactions. People don't bat an eye. You suggest something like that might cause behaviour and it is suddenly madness.
Show PostHow does generalization work? A follow-up on this discussion with @drmichaellevin.bsky.social, Mark Solms, Karl Friston, and Richard Watson www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_ci...
Show PostModifying an NCA phenotype with LoRA adapters (showing there are low-dimensional modifications that can scale/skew the resulting image). Bringing together two of my favorite AI concepts, NCAs and PEFT (parameter efficient fine-tuning). 🙂

Michael commented that biological organisms can't afford to perceive and make sense of the world by noticing every micro-state, they would be eaten in a heartbeat. thoughtforms-life.aipodcast.ing/conversation...
Show PostOur work on adapting NCAs towards generating controlled morphological changes is now in preprint!
