Building learning systems that can operate on multiple modalities, and are totally interpretable. I think of these requirements as the basis for the next big jump in software usability, (I.e much better intelligent user interfaces)

AGI is not what I want to build, someone else can do that. For now I want to increase the capacity for people to build neural networks that researchers don’t dream of doing, as easy as stitching together web APIs. I internalize this under the title “the Infrastructure of Intelligence”

Also, eventually I would like to work on a programming language for biology, and contribute to building wetware computers.

Another thing that I think the first project would help is longitudinal health tracking and quantifying human biology.

Any resources to share that can serve as an introduction to this "Infrastructure of Intelligence" idea.

That term is something I sort of came up with, but certainly there are some cool papers.

https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.10985 Is one, talking about using ideas like neural architecture search to build better learning systems. A lot of the references in it are golden.

I also wrote a set of notes formalizing what I see as the first step to building this infrastructure of intelligence. There’s some great references in there: https://osf.io/bv4qp/

I’d be happy to talk about this and get your thoughts, you can hit me up on my email: harshsikka123 @ Gmail.com

I’m leading a research collaboration with some researchers in academia and industry, working on this actively!

Thanks for the resources! I'll give them a deep dive over the next couple of days
