Big if true. Current academic evaluation system via poor KPIs is more similar to a “call center” evaluation system than something useful. It is the main reason most of the best young scholars I know have left academia for industry. Everyone I knew in academia good enough to find something else elsewhere left, those who couldn’t remained, and are burn out, stuck in the rat race.

It is sad, because we were all ready to accept less money and being overworked for the idea to do something useful. And society lost so much value due to a broken corrupted system that squashes human dignity to make money for small mafias, institutions and publishers

Because he was ceo of a company in a critical position to define the future of economy. Currently the tech field is the biggest and most influential of all economic fields. And by tech here we talk about digital world. There’s absolutely no comparable sector at the moment for importance, not even pharma.

It literally defines the modern economy. In the field, openai is an incredibly important company for future relative success and power of big tech companies.

This is why it is so important for world economy

How is it useful? Dessert vs food?

“At the end of the lunch nowadays everyone want to have a dessert, but this is wrong because they should have food”…

The sentence AI vs algorithms sounds pretty much like this

AI is a broad family of statistical and simulation algorithms.

They don’t replace algorithms, they are algorithms very powerful for some cases. For other cases they are less powerful, or overkill and they shouldn’t be used. But there is no dichotomy, as one (AI) is part of the other (algorithms)

It’s not an average machine though. It’s a non-linear predictive system. Averages suck in non-linear predictions

They missed the recording where he said to the female journalist in his team: “to work here you have to f*ck”

It refers to the fact that feelings are not a reflection of the outside reality, but a reflection of one’s perception of it. According to OP, this is proven by how feelings completely change by simply changing the way the brain perceives reality, via a psycotropic compound, while actual reality remains unchanged.

This is a well known scientific and philosophical fact, that OP has only come to know recently thanks to personal experience with psycotropic drugs

Such epiphany resulted in the shower thought we are commenting.

In the easiest example of a neuron in a artificial neural network, you take an image, you multiply every pixel by some weight, and you apply a very simple non linear transformation at the end. Any transformation is fine, but usually they are pretty trivial. Then you mix and match these neurons to create a neural network. The more complex the task, the more additional operations are added.

In our brain, a neuron binds some neurotransmitters that trigger a electrical signal, this electrical signal is modulated and finally triggers the release of a certain quantity of certain neurotransmitters on the other extreme of the neuron. Detailed, quantitative mechanisms are still not known. These neurons are put together in an extremely complex neural network, details of which are still unknown.

Artificial neural network started as an extremely coarse simulation of real neural networks. Just toy models to explain the concept. Since then, they diverged, evolving in a direction completely unrelated to real neural network, becoming their own thing.

No, what you describe is a basic decision tree. Let’s say the simplest possible ML algorithm, but it is not used as is in practice anywhere. Usually you find “forests” of more complex trees, and they cannot be used for generation, but are very powerful for labeling or regression (eli5 predict some number).

Generative models are based on multiple transformations of images or sentences in extremely complex, nested chains of vector functions, that can extract relevant information (such as concepts, conceptual similarities, and so on).

In practice (eli5), input is transformed in a vector and passed to a complex chain of vector multiplications and simple mathematical transformations until you get an output that in the vast majority of cases is original, i.e. not present in the training data. Non original outputs are possible in case of few “issues” in the training dataset or training process (unless explicitly asked).

In our brain there are no if/else, but electrical signals modulated and transformed, which is conceptually more similar to the generative models than to a decision tree.

In practice however our brain works very differently than generative models

There is not a single if/else in a neural network. You are confusing it with decision trees that are used for classification

NTA, you should leave your husband

This is an automated action performed in response to the acronym AITA

Have you thought asking support from a counselor? It might help to cope

How is romance so high? It is a genre where 99% of movie is a pile of stereotypes put together by an amazon warehouse robot.

I am calling for mislabelling. Many dramas are probably also labeled as “romance” because main characters are a couple in some kind of relationship

Edit. Reading better the graph this is for sure the case. What movie illiterate labeled forrest gump as romance?

You are most probably wrong. How old are you?

Time really cures such feelings. In 20 years you’ll watch back to these events with a very different perspective

I like this :D

And, in news that seems entirely unbelievable in Maryland, where a bushel of steamed crabs is an expensive treat and crab cakes are on just about every restaurant menu, Italians have little desire to eat their way out of this crab conundrum.

We will eventually eat them, we just need to understand how to properly make a pasta sauce out of it! Already some people are eating them, we need time to refine the recipes to become more popular :D

I am pretty sure it is also about “cultural” taste. Italians have more types of pasta, cheese and wines of any country in the world and they can tell the difference of each of them at a extreme level. Italians are pretty pedantic on food

I am not an expert in crabs, no idea of the names of common mediterranean crabs, sorry. But searching on Wikipedia one apparently is called in English Maja squinado, another Mediterranean green crab…

As said, I might be wrong with these names

Might also be a different variety… They came in some container ship, but it is unclear from where. No idea tbf ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Same in all Europe. Not cheap for the quality. Cooking at home the same burger is cheaper with better ingredients
