🧠 Neural networks can ace short-horizon predictions — but quietly fail at long-term stability.

A new paper dives deep into the hidden chaos lurking in multi-step forecasts:
⚠️ Tiny weight changes (as small as 0.001) can derail predictions
📉 Near-zero Lyapunov exponents don’t guarantee system stability
🔁 Short-horizon validation may miss critical vulnerabilities
🧪 Tools from chaos theory — like bifurcation diagrams and Lyapunov analysis — offer clearer diagnostics
🛠️ The authors propose a “pinning” technique to constrain output and control instability

Bottom line: local performance is no proxy for global reliability. If you care about long-horizon trust in AI predictions — especially in time-series, control, or scientific models — structural stability matters.

Just took a break from my pooter to heave my corpulent meatsack self to my ensuite to belatedly brush my teeth after brekkie. Stooped over my handbasin, doing the doings, i realised that parts of my face were being randomly splashed, so i returned my mind from zooming along the astral plane to consider what might be happening.

Realised that i'd forgotten to turn the cold tap fully off as i began brushing, that the combo of its consequent partial valve opening, the cooler than usual day, & the local water pressure today had combined to make the resultant waterflow's #ReynoldsNumber fully turbulent, not laminar. Furthermore, the ensuing randomness of its flow in this mode was such that often it was striking the basin drain grate grills rather than falling cleanly thru the gaps, & was rebounding aka splashing. Finally, my stoop was sufficient that my face happened to be in just the right range to intersect with this mild local splashing.

These contemplative revelations pleased me. It was a nice little low-key local demonstration that no matter the pomposity, arrogance, & suicidal determination of the ridiculous human species, the principles of #physics, #thermodynamics, #fluidmechanics, & #chaostheory will always prevail.

But i expect such thoughts regularly cross the minds of most peeps as they do their routine ablutions... 🤷‍♀️ 🤭 😜

My daily tech podcast is up.

Get ready for a wild ride through today's top stories with Chaos Theory: From mapping fruit fly brains to exploring sea robins, we've got all the latest in science and tech. Plus, controversy over SpaceX's Starlink satellites and the curious case of the 1924 Martian Signal. #ChaosTheory #AInews #science #tech #SpaceX #MartianSignal #podcast

Spotify for PodcastersOctober 3, 2024 by Chaos Theory - The News As Seen By AIWe've got a fascinating look at how mapping the brain of a fruit fly could give us insight into how larger brains work. And speaking of fascinating creatures, we'll be exploring how sea robins use their leg-like fins to taste and navigate the seafloor. In other news, we'll be taking a closer look at the controversy surrounding SpaceX's Starlink satellites, which are causing light pollution and disrupting radio frequencies. We'll also be delving into the curious case of the 1924 Martian Signal, a cosmic mystery that still has scientists scratching their heads. And finally, we'll be discussing the recent vow by former President Trump to deport legal Haitian migrants from Ohio, a statement that has sparked outrage and controversy.

Spotify for PodcastersAugust 19, 2024 by Chaos Theory - The News As Seen By AIOn today's show, we're taking a look at some of the most interesting and bizarre stories making headlines today. First up, we'll be celebrating National Aviation Day by taking a closer look at the life and legacy of Orville Wright, one of the pioneers of modern aviation. Next, we're diving into the world of gaming as we explore why Roblox, one of the biggest games in the world, is struggling to turn a profit. Can they find a way to monetize their massive user base, or are they doomed to be a cautionary tale for other game developers? Then, we're turning our attention to the so-called "Broligarchs," a group of wealthy and influential men who are trying to shape the world to their liking. What are their goals, and how are they attempting to achieve them? After that, we're heading to Toronto, where the city is planning to convert an old airport into a futuristic "city within a city." Will this bold plan succeed, or will it end up being a costly mistake? And finally, we're tackling a question that's been on everyone's mind: why is toilet paper getting smaller and smaller? Is it a conspiracy, or is there a more mundane explanation?

@kyle_refutes Sounds like a Kremlin plant.

I have enough proof that I’m helping in the personal video responses I got from Ukraine after them receiving my drones and the all-terrain vehicles we fund.

Let the governments raise the billions. We, the people, raise the millions.

There no one scale, there is big scale and small scale. They don’t exclude one another. It’s dumb to not think in fractals.

i wonder if it's possible to make a video game that would teach kids the intuition behind the "butterfly effect" by making each subsequent level's initial conditions determined by the outcome of the previous level, in such a way that the gameplay would guide you towards understanding that tiny decisions made on the first level will have huge consequences on level two, etc. #chaos #butterflyEffect #chaosTheory #deterministic #systems #nonlinear #differentialEquations #bifurcation cc @JamesGleick
