https://mythos.science Interested in self-organizing systems, metalearning and open-ended algorithms. PhD from NYU Center for Data Science
Great conversations when presenting my poster on the Weight Transformer MetaNCA at #ALife 2025! It's about learning local update rules for neural networks in order to be able to generate weights for arbitrary architectures ("architecture generalization").

Within the next 5 years there's going to be a better, more efficient way to train neural networks than gradient-based optimization. My bet is that it's going to take inspiration from living organisms, with properties like self-organization, replication, and evolution.
CDS Student Research Showcase: CDS PhD graduate Meet Barot (@nowittynamesleft.bsky.social) is creating "living" neural networks at his company Mythos Scientific (mythos.science), making AI systems behave more like biological ones.
