Any recommendations of really good interview books?
I just finished reading the three that Martin Gayford did with David Hockney; they were fun! Another interview book, which I like even more, is the one Paul Cronin did with Werner Herzog.

@phokarlsson i think artists are on some kind of a spectrum with regards to how open they are to being buffeted around by the requirements of the work. Some seek to impose themselves. But what you describe is (for me) the kingly school of songwriting.

there will be a “right” way to extend the melody, add harmony to it, etc: it will tell you if you listen carefully. So it is really about letting go of ego and submitting to this structure outside of yourself.

Strangely, though, at the same time it requires you to be deeply self-attuned, because the only way to feel the latent structure of the song is to listen in to how the various possibilities resonate with you. But there is little space for choice.

It is interesting how little freedom there is in creativity if you take it seriously. If I’m writing a song, I have some freedom when I make the first one or two choices—picking the first section of the melody, say. But after that the form really demands what comes next:

The data is from Games of Go on Disk which transcribes games from pro tournaments. I suspect that it is pretty hard to cheat on a live pro tournament, but not sure what precautions they take. https://t.co/pr8OqmxIoJ

There is a parallel here to cognitive apprenticeship theory, ie the idea that the reason cognitive skills are hard to learn is that we can't see them so you should externalize them for students. For humans to learn from AIs, perhaps making reasoning explicit is needed.

@phokarlsson That paper does not even once (that I can see) mention the hypothesis that better go AIs allow for easier cheating.

The significant improvements seems to have come not after May 2016 when AlphaGo was released but after October 2017 when Leela Zero was open sourced.

Ok, so this is interesting: it seems maybe the quality improved not after AlphaGo, but after the release of open source versions. Because they allowed players to look under the hood and understand the strategy. Just seeing the AI moves was not enough. https://t.co/8d1B1dsSzB http

"we estimated the time trends of decision quality only for the decisions that differed from the optimal AI decisions." which I take to mean that the graph above shows only the improved decision quality of moves that are not direct memorizations of moves done by AIs?

Graph of decision quality among professional Go players. A sudden increase after AlphaGo. It is not only because they are learning from the AI. Players are suddenly inventing new moves at a faster rate too! https://t.co/sOyIcuvqDt
