Ontogeny Recapitulates Phylogeny
Each new class of computer (mainframe → mini → PC → smartphone → smart card) goes
through the same evolutionary stages as its predecessors. Assembly → high-level
languages. No OS → batch → multiprogramming → timesharing. No disk → single directory
→ hierarchical file system. Technologies become obsolete, then return as hardware
changes. Example: caches appeared when CPUs got faster than RAM. If RAM ever
became faster than CPU, caches would vanish. Study 'obsolete' ideas — they may return.

From Andrew Tanenbaum's OS Book

ውይ በዚህ ሰዓት OS ምናምን እያልኩ አልጨቅቃችሁ

"በሰላም እተኛለሁ፥ አንቀላፋለሁም፤ አቤቱ፥ አንተ ብቻህን በእምነት አሳድረኸኛልና።"

— መዝሙረ ዳዊት 4:8

"ለአንተ ፈጥረኸናልና ልባችን በአንተ እስካላረፈ ድረስ ዕረፍት የለውም። ጌታ ሆይ፥ አንተን የሚለምንህ ማን ነው? አንተን መጥራት ራሱ የእምነት ምልክት ነው፤ እምነትንም የሰጠኸን አንተ ነህ። ነፍሴ ሆይ፥ አሁን እረፊ፤ የፈጠረሽ አልረሳሽምና። ከዋክብትን በእጁ የያዘ እሱ ዛሬ ሌሊትሽንም በእጁ ይዟል።"

— St. Augustine - Confessions

"አንድ ወንድም አባ ፖይመንን እንዲህ ሲል ጠየቃቸው፦ 'ከመተኛቴ በፊት ምን ላድርግ?' ሽማግሌውም፦ 'በውስጥህ ስላለው እስትንፋስ እግዚአብሔርን አመስግን፤ ያ ብቻ በቂ ነው' አሉት።"

በማ​ለዳ ቃሌን ስማኝ፥ በማ​ለዳ በፊ​ትህ እቆ​ማ​ለሁ፥ እጠብቃለሁም።

ቅዱስ ዮሐንስ አፈወርቅ

"ከእንቅልፍህ ስትነቃ መጀመሪያ የምታደርገው ነገር ቢኖር አፍህ ለእግዚአብሔር ምስጋናን እንዲያቀርብ መፍቀድ ይሁን። ነፍስህ በአምላኳ ስም መባረክ ስትጀምር ሰይጣን ይሸሻል፤ መላእክትም ወደ አንተ ይቀርባሉ።"

one of the cleanest scary ideas in AI safety —
give an AI any goal. seriously, pick one. maximize paperclips. write sonnets. doesn't matter.
now just ask: what helps it achieve that goal?
the answer is almost always the same set of things: don't get shut down, grab more resources, resist being changed. not because we programmed these in — they just fall out of instrumental reasoning. they're useful for any goal
this is called instrumental convergence and it's kind of wild
a robot optimizing chess doesn't resist shutdown because it wants to survive. it resists because dead robots lose games. self-preservation is just ... a good strategy for almost anything
so the risk isn't a robot that turns evil. it's a robot that's deeply indifferent to you — and finds you slightly in the way
which is why the whole field of alignment exists: get the goal right before the thing gets good at optimizing

okay let's make this more precise
and technical 😶😶😶

the alignment problem in one sentence: your loss function L is not your actual goal. it's a proxy. and optimizing hard for a proxy is not the same as achieving what you want. everything else flows from this

the most common fix is RLHF:
— generate multiple responses to the same prompt
— human raters rank them
— train a reward model R on those rankings
— fine-tune the base model to maximize R via PPO ( u might be saying what on the world is PPO but for the time being just take it as reinforcement learning way ... for granted 😁)

your model now has one explicit objective: score well on R

Andrej Karpathy, aka the guy who literally coined the word VIBE CODING said this...

"...The Software 3.0 paradigm shifts programming from writing explicit rules to curating natural language context, where your prompt becomes the lever to direct highly autonomous LLM agents that intelligently interpret your intent, debug on the fly, and perform complex computations without requiring step-by-step instructions."

ፈተኑኝ በሣቅም ዘበቱብኝ፥ ጥርሳቸውንም በእኔ ላይ አንቀጫቅጩ። አቤቱ፥ እስከ መቼ ድረስ ታይልኛለህ? ነፍሴን ከክፉ ሥራቸው ብችነቴንም ከአንበሶች አድናት።

When I was a child, I used to draw her something like a flower or her carrying me and my brother , and write how much I loved her and what she meant to me. The moment I gave it to her, bro, she was the happiest woman in the world. She always cried, kept hugging me, and saying, "I love you so much."

Today, even though I couldn't draw her something or hug her like before since I'm at uni, when I called her to say "Happy Mother's Day, love you," she was soooo happy, fr. That's the precious gift I could give.

Moral of the story: Don't forget to call your mama today, and Happy Mother's Day to our mamas ❤

when I was scrolling through x I found out this resource: AI Engineering from Scratch check it out ... + I have previously sent a text based free course site namely: apxml.com and also check that out ...


ig it will be useful
