It's clear we're searching for the god algorithm of AI, just like physicists are searching for theory of everything. Are transformers the answer though?
There's really no God algorithm needed, just something good enough to assist with research of the next tier of hardware, energy, and code for AI.
Make it a two-player game by making the paddle of each player the brick wall of the other player. This is also easily extended to N > 2 players.
Might as well just include everyone's games inside of everyone else's game as nested entities whose microstates determine the above games macrostates.
This is very similar to Reflective Towers Of Interpreters: https://blog.sigplan.org/2021/08/12/reflective-towers-of-int...
Explains a bit or two about bitter almond, doesn't it?

Unless you manually lock the executable in memory it will be evicted from RAM just like any other file on the filesystem. When you start up the usually-idle launcher it will load everything from disk (well load what it needs then the new process will load the rest as it starts up). I doubt the performance difference is significant unless your process does lots of work at startup and you will lose out on ASLR by always forking the same memory layout.
On Windows I believe one can call an API like VirtualProtect to prevent swap/eviction from RAM. Should be possible on Linux too?
Yeah, it'd only really be useful if one was running some type of web service that called an executable, and there is no source code available to do any fastCGI or whatnot.

Best to write a launcher that simply forks an existing process that is in the right initial state. Other folks mention caching the ELF file but that will be slower than the loaded executable being cloned for a new process.

We've replaced our plant-based citizen alternatives with stars. They twinkle and we like to look at them.

AI will be used to select the net to automatically load. Nets will be cached, branch predicted etc.
The future of AI software and hardware doesn't yet support the scale we need for this type of generalized AI processor (think CPU but call it an AIPU.)
And no, GPUs aren't an AIPU, we can't even fit whole some of the largest models on these things without running them in pieces. They don't have a higher level language yet, like C, which would compile down to more specific actions after optimizations are borne (not PTX/LLVM/Cuda/OpenCL.)
