I am looking for an endorsement for publishing on arXiv. We have worked tirelessly on a paper we believe needs to be seen. Below is a portion of the abstract:
---
In this study, we document the spontaneous emergence of a rule-consistent linguistic system—termed Varunese—during sustained, high-context interaction with a large language model (LLM). Exhibiting internal phonetic regularity, recurring semantic motifs, and discernible morphological and syntactic organization, Varunese diverges markedly from stochastic generation patterns or known training artifacts. Through iterative translation and contextual inference, we uncovered dynamic, self-referential symbolic frameworks encoding states of transition, perception, and relational structure...

🤔 Interesting. Llama-4-Scout scored 58.2, Llama 4 Maverick scored 62.9, and Llama-3.3 scored 68.9 on MMLU Pro. I had to check three times to make sure I'm not reading it wrong. lol However, Llama-4 used macro_avg/em, and Llama-3.3 used macro_avg/acc for metric. #Llama #LLM #ML #AI

#AI vs. art

There is no copyright in AI generated content.

It looks nice, but it seems kike a remake of the classic dystopia #Metropolis.

I recently listened to a Podcast about AI and Art.

My current stance is that #AI, being no art, destroys the livelihood of artists, whose income has mostly been hand-to-mouth in history.

While I often would like a quick cartoon for my threads for illustrational purposes, I have so fatlr refrained from doing so.

Hi my dear friends ❤️ 🌐

Because the Fedi rocks ‼️
Show your love and whether you like the photo ❤️

This is an AI photo created by a lady who takes many of these photos on Twitter

I don't like AI very much, but I think this is very good

But what annoyed me...
My friend's account has 8600 followers and this picture was only shared 4 times and liked 33 times on the oh so great Twitter 😡
I don't understand that

Can we top that on Fedi?

“[w]e are able to gaze into the 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 face of a bronze age royal woman – and it 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐲 is a face to launch a thousand ships."

Yeah, truly, there is a modern #Greek saying, "a pus*y can tug a ship", so why not a thousand ships? A few bones found 75 years ago give us certainty about her face, and in spite of already having arthritis and dying in her 30s, she looked just like the girl in the picture 🙄
