@GaryMarcus Gary, what’s your opinion on genetic algorithms? I would guess a lack of compute is a limitation here, but I’m wondering about 30 years from now.

It’s not just the Apple paper. Reasoning outside the distribution has been the core problem for neural networks for 30 years.

Here’s yet another study that is a case in point.

It has been my central goalpost for nearly 30 years, and I will keep emphasizing it until the

📢 Can LLMs really reason outside the box in math? Or are they just remixing familiar strategies?

Remember DeepSeek R1, o1 have impressed us on Olympiad-level math but also they were failing at simple arithmetic 😬

We built a benchmark to find out → OMEGA Ω 📐

The statement engages in a technical discussion about machine learning, specifically addressing the efficiency of building innateness in models and the potential of evolutionary approaches. It critiques the ML community's approach and suggests alternatives, contributing to a broader conversation about AI development.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not cause harm and contributes constructively to the discussion on AI methodologies. [+1]
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    It promotes understanding by offering a perspective on evolutionary approaches in AI, encouraging exploration of different methodologies. [+1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in constructive criticism of the ML community's approach to innateness without personal attacks. [+1]
