Now, if you take the UN projections to the end of the century, it looks like this. And you can see the familiar sigmoid curve. If things bear out according to those projections, we will plateau toward the end of the century, or the beginning of the next, at a level of about 12
So in conclusion, just to say, we're at this point in the course of human and social evolution where the demands of survival converge I like how you started with the sigmoid curve connecting with biology and transition to how that is reflected in our values and kind
actually, I think we should do this or we should do that and just guessing what to do. It's much more like a sigmoidal curve in which the information we have already is benefiting let's say the clinicians in taking certain actions.
My wife and I have been working with museum for the last couple of years and looking at opportunities to turn that museum into a living laboratory, because it's Now if you've had a sigmoidoscopy, you don't want to think about that.
And it's in that light and in that vein that I published the book and that I'm here to talk about it. The basic image of this book is the sigmoid growth curve. It consists of a period of accelerating growth, and decelerating growth, and a point of inflection.
But it also gives us a sense of the importance of how we approach this. So now we'll abstract things a little bit and come back to the sigmoid curve-- its two sections, the point of inflection. And what my father did, intuitively, was that he looked at this, and he said, wait a minute.
And I realized that my kids are growing up in a different environment from what I grew up in. So this shows three generations mapped against where they fall on the sigmoid curve. The depression generation, my parents' generation, was born and essentially lived out most of their lives under epoch A conditions.
I'm going to take one last diversion here and just say one other aspect of this model that I personally find very interesting. We've been looking at this section, the sigmoid curve section. If you extend it out into the past and into the future, the conditions of our evolution and the way
So in conclusion, just to say, we're at this point in the course of human and social evolution where the demands of survival converge Do you have any examples from biology of other organisms kind of navigating that sigmoid curve
So in conclusion, just to say, we're at this point in the course of human and social evolution where the demands of survival converge a plateau, and then another sigmoid curve, and then another sigmoid curve.
My wife and I have been working with museum for the last couple of years and looking at opportunities to turn that museum into a living laboratory, because it's Check it out. But it's also known as the sigmoid curve.
And primates have them. And only amongst primates do you ever see this very characteristic S-shape, a sigmoid curvature. And at that particular moment in time, I happened to be the only world's expert on hominid clavicles.
But Kimi K2 Thinking and Kimi K2 is a model that is very popular. People say that has very good creative writing and also in doing some software It's just like a tweak. The nonlinear activation function— people familiar with deep neural networks, I mean, it's the same as changing sigmoid with ReLU. It's not changing the network fundamentally.
