[Fis] Status of FIS?

[Pedro C. Marijuán]

No problem, Marcus. I asked them (Sciforum), time ago, to reorganize the 
current fis archives (three or four different ones, pretty difficult to 
handle). It is fine they are addressing the problem finally.
Thanks for the other suggestions, I will try to find time or helping hands.

By the way, about AI, there is an insightful critique of LLMs by 
Benjamin Riley, "Large Language Mistake", at: 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://buildcognitiveresonance.substack.com/p/large-language-mistake__;!!D9dNQwwGXtA!R_q9ZyhtBr-NsLcwfuCpiwGd5rRBhfEMS3xyuvfRmgeOO1aJcf1zKVVaqvSwUmqVC918QIYixgPvAxQbdfkraZcaKXL_$ 
Some of his arguments connect with *The New Year Lecture on Arts & the 
Cognitive *to start quite soon --the dissatisfaction that leads artists 
and scientists to the creation of new metaphors that give rise to new 
descriptions of the world. Conversely, there would not be reason for 
LLMs 'savants' to become dissatisfied with the data they are being 
fed... although they can remix and recycle them in interesting ways.

Anyhow, new (informational? cognitive?) approaches to the world of 
culture & the arts would contribute to refocus and enlarge the span of 
our collective discussion, now on the social information 'quicksand' arena.

Best Regards,
--Pedro
