The pizza-bitcoin story is about $1B, not a measly $100,000, FWIW. Assuming you're referring to the 10k BTC for 2 pizzas story, anyway.

In 1999 when I was about 12, I memorized 120 digits of pi with little issue. I had some extra motivation: once I got to 20-30 digits, a classmate bet me I couldn't get past 100, and he'd give me $1 for every digit I memorized past 100. Never saw my $20 :(. Pretty sure it was a well-executed nerd-snipe.

Having not practiced at all since about 2001 or so, I can still get to about 30 pretty easily. I didn't use any techniques specifically, I just kept practicing as far as I remember.

I treasure my memories of being on subways and busses and getting lost in thought while staring out the windows, yeah. I mean, people have done this for basically all of human history (okay walking or something, not on a train, but, yeah). It's not a bad thing to have some time with just your senses existing in the world.

What you've described is just a new benchmark, though. It'll be called CarParkBench, various embodied LLMs will then be run against that benchmark, and some will score better than others.

I do see where you're going, but that's already what's happening: we have so many different benchmarks because there's no real single way to test for general intelligence.

Also, it takes a human probably at least a decade of world experience, growth, learning, etc, to pass your benchmark. I'm quite confident that it will be very soon that an embodied LLM will pass your new benchmark, much sooner than a human would take if born today.

I'm not familiar with MyselfGPT (and didn't see an obvious result in a quick search), so, I guess it probably cannot use MyselfGPT. If you have a link, I'll check it out and then we'll see!

This should be "This should be 'You're thinking'." don't you think? Why bother correcting someone's grammar with a sentence fragment? You're just trading one mistake for another. I'm hoping someone finds a grammar error in my post, because continuing this would be hilarious.

The linked page implies there is no linux support, I wonder why. It's there in the docs if you hunt for it.

FWIW, I used to love this phrase but over recent years have come to understand it is quite damaging. We live in a society where evil frequently hides behind a ‘stupid’ label, and people bring this quote up to defend or soften actions that are indeed done out of specific malicious intent.

Still can't make a Gmail label named 'Buzz'.

Yes, of course, it seems that type of ID was specifically rejected in the story above. Only drivers allowed to sign up. Non-drivers rejected because they don’t drive.
