My take as a 90s math grad (out of touch with modern teaching): Theory is useful to show human society is stagnant. There’s an infinite number of sentences but our ML models are having tons of “success” as society relies on finite set in daily life; those that instigate commerce. Like religion relied on an acceptable finite set of sentences, so too does our society. We’re a bunch of weird little missionaries living in one geometric world, still believing in bigger purpose. ML isn’t really outputting novelty, it’s spewing our own inanity at us, and helping correct some bad math in engineering cases. We’re easily mesmerized apes. |
