raising both excitement and concerns—particularly about the potential for AI consciousness. For example, Google engineer Blake Lemoine suggested that the AI chatbot LaMDA might become sentient. At that time, GPT-3 was one of the most powerful publicly available language models, capable of simulating...
The iterative process of RCI can be continued until specific conditions are satisfied, which could include receiving feedback from the environment, reaching the maximum predetermined number of iterations, or adhering to certain heuristics. We define two approaches for achieving RCI: explicit RCI and ...
However, while nonlinearity may explain the evolutionary persistence of cooperation, cooperating is only adaptive if a large enough proportion of the population are already cooperators, which raises the question of how cooperation arose in the first place6,16,17. Rare cooperative ‘mutants’ can only...
Self-confidence and a positive attitude make human relations more than just common sense. Indicate whether the statement is true or false. People in good moods or experiencing positive emotions are less likely than others to use heuristics, or r...
However, if you aren’t a chess aficionado or have missed the news a couple of years ago, you might be wondering what exactly this AlphaZero really is, and what makes it worth writing an entire blog post about. For you, I will explain. ...
GOAL Our goal is to explain the first play experience of gamers. We contribute a thick description of the progression of the first hour and insights about designing a compelling one. We frame a game as a product with a natural lifespan and ask what is best in this lifespan's ...
Explain Kant's categorical imperative and the first two formulations. Explain the notions of heuristic thinking and analytical thinking. How do heuristics act as shortcuts in problem solving? Why do people exhibit bounded rationality when problem solving? Creativity is best measured by looking a...
Twentieth and twenty-first century cosmological physics has made extensive use of what is called Hubble’s constant—a number which helps explain the expansion of the universe. Yet the constant, derived as a supposed measure of acceleration, was itself derived from relatively static images. ...
note that context and confounders lie at the very heart of diffusion of complex innovations and are not extraneous to the object of study; they are an integral part of it [2]. Rogers touches on the idea of homophily as an impediment in the adopter context, a sociological concept that ...
Cultural evolution research is the study of how cultural traits (e.g., beliefs and behavioral patterns) stabilize, change and diffuse in populations, and why some cultural traits are more “attractive” (i.e., more likely to spread) than others. As such,
