The shroud of Turing

Church / Turing

Bits ... Intelligence
Collect Underpants ... Profit
Everything is bits in motion
well almost everything...

PatternRecognition

Word2Vec
woman - man = queen - king
woman - man + king = queen

Turing Consistency

Enough parameters, Any computable function
Learn anything that can be learned

Bayesian Stability

More data, Less surprise
Model Surprisal = System Entropy
Predict as much as can be predicted

Program Search

Some bit strings are intelligent, some are not
intrepid explorers
exploring the space of programs
The question of whether Machines Can Think... is about as relevant as the question of whether Submarines Can Swim. — Edsger W. Dijkstra
Submarines were never meant to swim like a fish
Planes were never meant to fly like a bird
Drybrains aren't meant to think like wetbrains
But there is something in common
Birds and planes are both bound by aerodynamics
Drybrains and Wetbrains are both bound by information theory
