I've studied AI with Prolog and Lisp in the 90s but dropped it, because it felt laughable. I've switched to neuro computer science with hardware neural networks, but dropped it, because it felt laughable. How times have changed.
- Folcon 4y agoJust out of curiosity, what are you studying now that you feel is laughable?
- JoeDaDude 4y agoA scant 11 years ago, I was about to obtain an MSCS degree and was chatting with my follow students about what they wanted to do. There was talk about designing compilers or webapps or games or databases. I mentioned I thought AI was pretty cool and the universal answer was I should not waste time on that.
- kqr 4y agoWow, at that point we were at most a year from the first signs of the AI revolution that came with deep learning, and three years from DL exceeding human performance at multiple specialised tasks. You were not far off!
