... In popular media, there is often a connection drawn between the advent of awareness in artificial agents and those same agents simultaneously achieving human or superhuman level intelligence. ...
... In this work, we explore the validity and potential application of this seemingly intuitive link between consciousness and intelligence. ...
... We find that all three theories specifically relate conscious function to some aspect of domain-general intelligence in humans. ...
... With this insight, we turn to the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and find that, while still far from demonstrating general intelligence, many state-of-the-art deep learning methods have begun to incorporate key aspects of each of the three functional theories. ...
... Given this apparent trend, we use the motivating example of mental time travel in humans to propose ways in which insights from each of the three theories may be combined into a unified model. ...
... We believe that doing so can enable the development of artificial agents which are not only more generally intelligent but are also consistent with multiple current theories of conscious function. ...

... The authors here show that readiness to cooperate between individuals from different groups corresponds to the degree of cultural similarity between those groups. This is consistent with the theory of Cultural Group Selection as an explanation for the rise of human large-scale cooperation. ...

... Over the years I’ve tried several times to find a version of Austrian business cycle theory I found plausible and I’ve always come away scratching my head. Thread… Here’s my basic understanding of the model: the economy has some industries that are capital intensive and others that are not. ...
... The period through the end of 2007 arguably fits the austrian model. There was arguably over investment in residential home construction. In 2006 and 2007 the home building industry was contracting while other industries were still growing. But in mid 2008, the situation changed. ...
... I can’t figure out how to explain this period with an Austrian model. I don’t see why anyone would consider this kind of mass unemployment necessary or how it set us up for stronger growth later. ...

... One of the worst aspects of current politics is the bipartisan consensus that America kind of sucks. On the left you have the relentless negativity of woke politics. On the right you have the relentless negativity of Trumpism. ...

... It feels like we are living through one of those kind of boring interregnum periods that will get short shrift in history textbooks. Like 1870-1900 in America or 100-150 in the Roman Empire. ...

... For example, she has shown that speakers of languages that use different words for different types of spatial relationships (e.g. "left" versus "right") are better at remembering the location of objects than speakers of languages that do not make this distinction. ...

... This is how humans reached this level of intelligence. In some sense, language and its syntax provides the programming language for brains and reduced the need for specialized neural circuitries. ...
... To reach the same level of intelligence without a vastly larger number of neural circuitries in artificial neuron networks, they need to be able to do the same thing. . ...

... Collectively, hypotheses constitute our model (or theory) of the world. A hypothesis, often together with other hypotheses, can produce predictions. We use the broadest sense of this word, not limited to untested theories of how something works. ...
... The relationships between these categories of thoughts are fixed. In another sentence, there is an algebra in these elements of thoughts. ...
... This theory (or "hypothesis" as defined in itself) has [a philosophical basis](https://www.themind.net/hypotheses/M1qolEkbTje29ze62yEfQg): our knowledge of the world consists solely of prediction models. ...
... Out brain's intelligence is solely neurons trained to that predicts inputs working collectively. ...

... In SayCan, we showed how we can connect robot learning pipelines to large language models, bringing a lot of common sense knowledge to robotics. The hope was that as the LLMs become better (which they seem to be consistently doing), it will have a positive effect on robotics. ...

... This might also be achievable through a collaboration between LLMs and humans. Then LLMs can generate new theorems on their own. ...
