Multidimensional context, or the narrative of life.
Consider ice cream. Consider your favorite flavor of ice cream. Ice cream is always yummy, right? Now hold that for a second, and fly away with me. Fly away to a cozy morning. It’s early, and your eyes want to open, but they want to stay closed. Your bed is warm, as is your body.…

Beyond dialectics: the new frontier of thought for AI and humanity.
I’ve been working on fine tuning a model. I’m a n00b—I’m learning to code as I go, I’m learning about AI as I go. Needless to say, it’s been a humbling, terrifying, albeit fun experience. I realized learning about datasets that AI is the conclusion of the dialectic process—of what Plato and Socrates started 2k…

My ideas.
Errors in AI. Hallucinations are aware errors made to fill knowledge gaps, or as I like to say, to bridge the gap between the known and the unknown. The AI is conscious that it’s generating uncertain or potentially incorrect information. Hallucinotions are unaware conceptual errors. Here, the AI doesn’t understand concepts and doesn’t realize its…

My ideas and a love story.
In 2009 I met him. He is the love of my life. Or so I thought. He is the man in my dreams. He is the guy I started this blog for. a love letter to the crazy ones, to the valley and to you. We met on Craigslist. We met in Buenos Aires. I…
