tl;dr
Sony regrouped, retrained its AI, and set up a rematch in October. This time GT Sophy won with ease. What made the difference? It’s true that Sony came back with a larger neural network, giving its program more capabilities to draw from on the fly. But ultimately, the difference came down to giving GT Sophy something that Peter Wurman, head of Sony AI America, calls “etiquette”: the ability to balance its aggression and timidity, picking the most appropriate behavior for the situation at hand.
- Double_a_92 4y agoThank you. I read the full article but they are always just soo unnecessarily long. All the interesting bits could easily be condensed into 5 sentences. It almost feels offensive, how it wasted my time without giving me equally valuable information in return.
- azalemeth 4y agoIt also absolutely does not tell you how what is probably a multi-layer perceptron can implement etiquette as a neat little add-on...
- autoexec 4y agoI feel the same way about radiolab pocasts. Interesting topics, unnecessarily drawn out and filled with obnoxious amounts of repetition and pointless music/audio interludes to the point where I'd often just rage quit, but so many people love it and praise the production. There's certainly an audience out there that loves long-winded articles that meander around their topic so that you get the same amount of reading it would take for an in-depth look at a subject but still only come away with a handful of bullet points worth of useful information.
