New paper from Ken Stanley on learned representations in deep networks. Would love to hear other's take on it. #ML #AI

[2505.11581] Questioning Representational Optimism in Deep Learning: The Fractured Entangled Representation Hypothesis share.google/aSW6RBJafDSE...

A bird has been sleeping (yes, only at night) on the party light wire on my porch. I added a rubber snake thinking that would scare it away. Apparently I just gave it a new friend or a soft place to park its rump.

I have an orchid that is blooming and has a mutant bloom! Anyone seen this sort of thing before? Below are the mutant and another bloom on the same plant. #orchid #mutant
