The Lab Mistake That Might Revolutionize Computing
Today, you probably asked a question of a large language model, or accepted a connection suggestion on LinkedIn, or watched a recommended video on YouTube, or took a different route to work based on a traffic prediction from Google Maps. In other words, you probably used artificial intelligence. But what you might not know is how much energy that interaction consumed or why. AI requires processing massive amounts of data, which is usually done in large data centers populated by thousands of GPUs capable of executing up to trillions of operations per second. But each of those GPUs achieves that by consuming as much as 1,000 watts apiece. For comparison, if you’ve got a newer smartphone, it probably uses less than 1 W. That kilowatt figure puts GPUs on the same level as vacuum cleaners, dishwashers, and stoves, but with the big difference that data-center processors are operating uninterrupted around the clock. Fundamentally, a lot of this inefficiency is because GPUs are trying to simulate the workings of artificial neural networks using software and billions of transistors, which requires using energy to move massive amounts of data. What’s more, the simulated artificial neurons that make up these networks lack even a fraction of the complex computing behavior of the biological neurons that comprise the most energy-efficient computing system that we know, the human brain. The brain is roughly one million times as energy efficient at many of the comparable tasks we set for AI…

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…

MCP connected but not invokable
@iamkishank Welcome to the forum! First, I do not use MCP myself, so please treat this as a helpful pointer rather than a confirmed diagnosis. I suspect that some of the MCP and authorization code may be shared across OpenAI tooling, including Codex. I mention Codex because it has a public GitHub repository with an active issues list . After having ChatGPT search the Codex issues, it identified this possibly related issue: github.com/openai/codex Custom STDIO MCP server enabled and tools/list works, but tools are not exposed in Codex Desktop thread opened 06:41PM - 05 Jun 26 UTC ilkerfatih44 bug windows-os mcp app ### What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
