Deep Dive - Frontier AI with Dr. Jerry A. Smith ·

2025/05/06

The source argues that the long-held belief in a unified, singular consciousness is likely a misconception, proposing instead that the human mind operates as a collection of semi-autonomous neural networks. It highlights the convergence of neuromorphic cognitive architectures from computational neuroscience and the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model from clinical psychology, noting their independent arrival at similar models of distributed consciousness. This paper suggests that this shared

Deep Dive - Frontier AI with Dr. Jerry A. Smith ·

2025/04/16

This paper by Dr. Jerry A. Smith proposes that learning Morse code, specifically through the Long Island CW Club's method, could serve as a neuroprotective intervention against cognitive decline in aging. The author outlines a theoretical framework suggesting that Morse code acquisition engages multiple cognitive functions, including working memory, attention, and processing speed, which are vulnerable to aging. By analyzing the LICW's structured approach, the paper posits that this type of training

Deep Dive - Frontier AI with Dr. Jerry A. Smith ·

2025/01/29

The article explores Mixture of Experts (MoE) models, a new architecture in AI that prioritizes computational efficiency by activating only a small subset of its parameters for any given task. This "forgetting" of unused knowledge, while seemingly a limitation, is presented as a key feature enabling scalability to massive model sizes like GPT-4. However, the article also cautions against the potential downsides, such as the development of an "expert oligarchy" where some parts of the model dominate,
