burny_tech muses: could a universal theory of learning equalize nearly all architectures?
burny_tech · x · 2026-09-23
burnytech floats an open speculation: perhaps there exists some universal theory of learning that swallows and nearly equalizes far too many architectures and learning algorithms — implying different architectures may converge to similar performance under one unifying theory.
A brief, thought-experiment-style tweet continuing his discussion on research paradigms and architectural local optima, without detailed argumentation.
