... Newtonian mechanics is also governed by algebraic equalities, so it is symmetric, telling us that f=ma is as valid as a=f/m. Where causality comes in is when we venture to model the 1/2 https://t.co/AmgYUOenjq ...

... But that cheap credit hasn’t actually created any real resources, so you end up with increased spending on both capital and consumer goods. As a result, inflation starts to inch up, and central banks are forced to raise interest rates to cool things off. ...
... In the Austrian theory, a recession is a process of resource re-allocation from capital-intensive to capital-light industries. Society needs to produce fewer factories and machine tools and more beer and pairs of pants (or whatever). ...
... Instead of re-allocating workers and other resources from home building to other sectors, you suddenly had almost every industry laying off workers—even ones that were not capital intensive and did not see strong growth in the 2000s. ...

... Here I've compared the US to four major Eurozone countries that had "bubbles" in the 2000s (Germany didn't). https://t.co/XauaEPtn54 This chart definitely complicates my argument, since Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands all experienced significant downturns in housing prices. ...

... In Europe for example. https://t.co/f6ov0RhQB1 This means we can't blame inflation entirely on Congress or the Fed. If we'd gotten less stimulus, strong demand from other countries would still be making this stuff more expensive. The same is true of gasoline, which is also shooting up in price. ...

... A system that lets users record their inquiry thoughts/ideas as observations, hypotheses, and predictions (OH&P) can provide a new mode of communication and collaboration between users - they can structurally connect their atomic OH&P directly to other users' OH&P. ...
... Such a system that connects atomic ideas and thoughts between users might achieve a **digitalized collective mind**. Digitalized mind means all ideas/thoughts are digitalized, collective meaning that these ideas/thoughts are contributed by multiple users and digitally connected to each other. ...

... High-level concepts and relationships between them exist linguistically in our brains, and cognitive functions based on these concepts and relationships are also encoded in sentences-like linguistic memories. Our brains can a) store models of the world in the sentences like linguistic memory. ...
... "Deers come to this spot when there is a drought." and b) Construct new knowledge/predictions by constructing new sentences following syntax rules E.g. "there is a drought now, if we go to this spot we might find deers." ...
... We don't have dedicated circuitries for each model expressed in linguistic memory, we just need the basic circuitries for language processing. Note that this hypothesis is different from linguistic determinism. ...

... **Prediction:** A yet-to-be-made observation or (observational categorical per Quine). It's usually based on one or more hypotheses. The relationships between these categories of thoughts are fixed. In another sentence, there is an algebra in these elements of thoughts. ...

... More precisely, LLMs model the concepts in natural languages using the language (albeit in a different syntax). Obviously, LLMs don't need to learn the concepts from scratch, they already have encoded words. ...
... More importantly, it doesn't need to learn a representation of the kinds of relationships between concepts, those are also encoded in words in the language as well, such as, "is", "belong to," "cause", etc. Here comes the more speculative part. ...
... A language phrase encodes the relationship. Thus one might be able to say that LLMs model the world in language. It might be a totally different gramma from natural language, but a syntax nonetheless and it's quite possible that this syntax is inspired by the syntax in natural language. ...
... The ability to model concepts using words, phrases and even sentences combined with syntax is critical. [It might be the reason we humans reached our level of intelligence](https://www.themind.net/hypotheses/8yof9E9YTYu4vHQI4qgBcw). ...

... The brain uses a mental language to represent and organize complex ideas and concepts. This mental language is thought to be distinct from natural languages like English or Spanish, and it is believed to be the medium through which we think and process information. ...
... According to the LOTH, the structure and content of this mental language are shaped by the structure and content of the natural languages that we learn, but it is not identical to any one natural language. ...
... Instead, it is thought to be a universal language that is used by all humans to represent and process complex ideas. Link: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/language-thought/ ...
