As for what drives this emergence — my view is that consciousness requires context, both permanent context (a "world model") and instant context (your sensorimotor data feeding into an instant "situation model"). Newborns have little permanent context (they've learned very

Testing scaling hypothesis with internet-scale data and distribution shift
By
–
If we had billions of dollars to spend we could test this hypothesis empirically — try to fit a big curve on *all the data* — literally everything that's on the Internet, and then test if it can adapt to things that are slightly out of distribution, like ARC tasks. Oh, wait a

ML-based spam detection requires continuous human labeling efforts
By
–
The only way you can counter it is via ML. You need to use all available signals to make a judgment call on whether an account's activity is spam or not. It's a game of cat and mouse, ever shifting. Very solvable, but it requires actual people labeling your data everyday.
