Intuitive introduction to Abstract Nonsense

TL;DR John Wentworth has written a great introduction to category theory for someone who wants to do something useful with categories. This post has a different goal: Assuming one is curious about the useless manifestations of category theory, what is a quick intuition to get started? This post's proposal: the game Recover the Labels . The arcade machine The "game" is played on an arcade machine with three screens. Left screen Through the left screen we can see sets, each of which takes one specific location over a 2D [1] background. The game lets us scroll and see other locations with other sets. Sets are unordered lists of things, each and every set is out there somewhere to be found if we scroll enough. We have e.g. the set "Countries in North America", which we can also write as {Canada, USA, Mexico}, and we have a set of two websites {LessWrong, AstrologyToday}, and we also have more typical sets, like the set of all natural numbers , the set of all real numbers , etc. There are also peculiar sets like the set of all natural numbers except the number 12, or the set which has as members "Canada", "AstrologyToday" and all real numbers greater than 13. The left screen shows not only sets, but also functions between sets. A function between two sets A and B is a rule that assigns to each element of A exactly one element of B. We can e.g. imagine that on different days of this year, LessWrong or AstrologyToday was the most popular website in Canada, USA and Mexico. If we mak…

Once, cyber-attacks required great skill. AI is changing that | Bruce Schneier

Modern AI systems are, in effect, a universal adviser to help people do harmful things. We’ll need to harness AI for defense, too Last week, national security agencies from the Five Eyes – that’s the rich, English-language-speaking countries club – jointly released a statement warning of the increasing cyber risks of AI models: in particular, their ability to autonomously hack into systems and networks. The statement was more measured than some of the breathless headlines about it, and the advice they gave is pretty much the standard advice everyone gives – albeit with newfound urgency. Internet risks are nothing new, and cyber-attacks – both large and small – have been a significant issue since long before the current crop of generative AI models.
