Douglas Hofstadter
“Yes. I I love Douglas Hofstadter. So so there's this kind of self modeling and then second order self modeling and third order self modeling which could be applied to other agents and of course, know, in in the real world, we are computationally bounded.”

“I'm I'm huge fan of Andy's, big hero of mine. You probably didn't think that they would be so relevant later on in your career.”

I know. But but I I should push back a little bit because I don't know whether you played with Mythos before it got taken offline.

I think there might possibly be some breakthroughs around the corner. I I don't know if you know, but I'm I'm Carl Friston's personal publicist.

I don't know if you've seen the recent couple of papers that are applying it to transformers, you know, where essentially it's it's kind of a step towards probabilistic models where you actually have this uncertainty quantification.

I mean, 1 thing I was thinking about is so certainly in in enigma about them, we're looking at multistep creative reasoning. And I don't know whether, again, there was some kind of human based methodology for filtering and coming up with ideas, or maybe your frame was, I have some technical principled intuition about what the limitations of AI models are, so I'm gonna lean in in that direction.

You can improve to some margin, and we don't know what that margin would be if we had, like, agentic superintelligence.

Duggar. But some people say, I don't know, like polysemanticity or grokking or scale and, you know, that that it just it just appears like the neural network isn't grokking it.
