Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

TBF, the veracity of the information is relatively field dependent. Structural engineering? Yeah, probably still as relevant as the day it was published... Quantum computing or astrobiology theory? Far more likely to be superseded or debunked.

I want to see AI papers compared to today, we basically tore the guts out of everything, I don't even think most of Minsky is applicable anymore (perceptrons particularly have been replaced with vector meshes from word2vec).

Statistical modeling and machine learning theory goes back several decades. I'm not sure LLM's even use new algorithms. They may just apply various techniques that improve the performance and accuracy of pre-existing algorithms.
