    it’s fucking bizarre to see this many supposed computer science experts forget how much of the field is built on complexity theory and optimization, since things get fucking weird (simulate an entire alternate universe weird, like we’ve seen a lot of these AI fools turn to) when you stop analyzing complexity

    of course my FPGA obsession lately has been designing a lambda calculus reducer that runs on hardware, a ridiculously inefficient (in terms of both cycles and bytes) way to do general computation. I don’t claim that work’s practical though, unlike these breathless AI fuckers pretending an LLM doing inefficient computation (on top of a multitude of layers of efficient computation) is revolutionary
