Oh I think ur link doesnt work! What does mathematical induction really look like? - YouTube This one right?
Oh yep yep!!! We did induction wayy back in high school, for example using it to prove that a sum of a sequence is equal to some formula given.
Oh yep!! Do you mean like taking limits for calculus? But ye maths has SOOO many cool tools!!
In fact the most fascinating for me is in Quantum Physics - renormalization The Biggest Ideas in the Universe | 11. Renormalization - YouTube. In QM, sometimes adding up all the contributions of every possibility of every Fenymann diagram weirdly adds over 1 (ie infinity). With renormalization, the sum weirdly becomes 1 again. I haven’t watched the video too intently - but now since it reminded me I’m gonna rewatch it!!
You might be fascinating by Dynamic Mode Decomposition, SINDY and other methods for deriving physcial equations from natural systems! Dynamic Mode Decomposition (Overview) - YouTube
But ye if somehow we can augment transformers with say ideas from physics, that’ll be so cool! As you mentioned proving / disproving / finding new equations would be soo cool!

That’s the link! Thanks @danielhanchen, I fixed my link btw.
I love mathematics, because like you said, there are so many cool tools! I know the answer is out there somewhere, but how do we use everything around us to figure out what it is? Math has been the easiest thing for me to grasp after understanding that when you put numbers into an equation, they’re simply transformed into something else!

I agree! Yep the good ol argument of “is maths discovered / made?”
Even if the formulas for natural systems might look ugly, its quite clear some formula exists which governs the system!
Yep exactly!! Math is super useful and extremely powerful. It’s always so fascinating and wonderful how a few variables mixed in some werid way can give rise to complex world systems!

everything in the world is connected together and correspond to each other in some certain way, so we called butterfly effects, but it is so complicated beyond the understanding of human in most situations, using the algorithm and AI as a tool to figure out how the world work and correspond is valuable, but all in all, your app have to been tested in real-world, if it works well, it is have bright future and huge business value. but I doubt prediction in the real world is the strength of gpt-3. do you have any successful examples of your app? if it works well, I could help you to promote in the Chinese market and find investors.

Hello @mingleejiang!
Oh we’re not using GPT3 for world predictions - we’re making the models ourselves GPT3 is used for JARVIS - ie you can ask ANY question you like to Moonshot Earth ie “how long will I live”, “how will climate change affect me” or “when will the market next crash”. GPT3 or GPTx or any Transformer model will just be used to parse the questions.
I exactly agree! The world is connected, and yes any small little change anywhere in the world will cause a butterfly effect that changes the future. Chaos theory and dynamical systems models take this into account, where models understand that small changes in systems can affect the final outcome. For example, ramping up the Reynolds number in Navier Stokes for fluid dynamics can cause huge unpredictability.
Hence our gameplan is:
- Predict stock market crashes, stocks. Clearly if you can’t predict the market, how the hell can you predict the world? We’re already seeing a 2x returns just by predicting the Dow Jones index. We’re maybe releasing this December 2021 or early 2022.
- Predict just Australian (since I’m from Australia ) societal dynamics - ie life expectancy, disease rates, air pollution, traffic congestion, climate change impacts, house prices - u name it! Moonshot Earth v1 is going to be released maybe mid next year.
- Global expansion - US, China, UK, Europe, everywhere! This might be a 20-30 year mission.
If you’re interested in learning more about the technical details: Moonshot Technical Demo + What we've been up to! - YouTube and also our website: https://www.moonshotai.org/
But ye thanks @mingleejiang for your support and help!! We’re currently chatting away with some VCs in Australia, so I’ll post updates on it here!! We’re launching mid 2022, so can’t show u anything yet
I can only show u the fast algorithms which will underpin the Earth simulation which has 1.2K Github stars, with us being cited in Microsoft, UW, Greece research papers and algos are now inside NVIDIA, Facebook’s Pytorch and more. We also got contacted by Australia Defence on using our algos but declined due to ethics.

Also NVIDIA just announced they’re building Earth-2 - a digital twin of planet Earth to predict climate change!

your reply is so detailed and inspired, it is great, hope to have the opportunity to try your app in the future. thanks.

Thanks everyone here for your continued support!!!
We just got a YC interview invite for December 2nd!!!
Literally no joke - we’re constantly rejected by my relatives, friends, other founders, so literally the people here who support my bro and me - you guys are rockstars!!
Anyways low expectations for Dec 2nd - if we fail we’re gonna continue Moonshot’s mission of creating a world simulation!
Once again thanks everyone for your support during times of darkness!!

Hey everyone!! An update!! I did a guest piece with Earlywork on the simulation arms race!! 
Earlywork #48: The Simulation Arms Race
We’re launching a mini simulation for Australia in 2022 so if you’re interested, join our waitlist at www.moonshotai.org!! If you want to join us to make the impossible possible, there’s also a jobs link at the bottom of the site
NVIDIA’s Earth-2 supercomputer wants to predict climate change accurately by 2060. Armed with our 50-95% faster algorithms, we’re predicting not only climate change, but everything, quickly, efficiently and it’ll be open to the public!

Hey everyone again!!
Sadly my bro and I did not make it to YC this time!
YC said we’ve already accomplished so much and have a bright future ahead, and they loved our passion and energy and understood we were smart - except they said we need to first take a detour to sell our data / algos then reapply after 6-12 months to feed our final mission!
I want to sincerely thank everyone here for supporting us - it means tonnes! I’m also grateful to YC since they woke me up - you can always take a detour to get to the final goal - and it might be a shortcut!
We’re going to first start repackaging our stuff first, sell stuff quickly as a detour!! Our main mission to create a world simulation hasn’t changed though!
Thanks everyone again here for your continued support!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO thanks a lot @boris!!! I’m definitely gonna try it out!!! I can see Davinci is a whopping 12K in dimensions!!! Now that’s what I’m talking about!!! It clearly has much more context than Word2Vec’s 300 dimensions!
