The Goths 2 years ago

No wonder goths expanded so much. They have very cheap infantry.

I agree that the feedback loop wouldn't make the models smarter than us, but training data would. I can see how with more computing power we will be able to feed it the whole of YouTube, Spotify and perhaps also millions of physics experiments.

With this data, perhaps a model will be able to understand the hidden patterns of the world (e.g. physics equations governing reality) better than us, don't you think?

If you have sufficiently many examples of this relationship (that is, input/output pairs) you can train a machine learning model with this data, and you will get (if successful) an explicit mathematical function which captures the relationship

Pleonasms! The following text contains 6 examples:

Dear John,

You have been invited to the president's birthday, please RSVP by post.

Attached you'll also find a PIN number. It's part of a free gift; true fact! Just use it on any ATM machine.

Best, Tim

PS: could you please bring some chai tea?

I'm a DS during the day but recently I started teaching python/ML to a couple of kids (around 8y). It's super nice to see them have fun!

When teaching ML, we mainly used pre-trained models. They learn the concept of data, train/test split, accuracy, and to build programs which use these models.
