I absolutely adore this sentence, it made me laugh to imagine coders or other folks looking at the code and thinking "That's it?!? But that's simple!"
Although it feels a little similar to some of the basic reactions that go to make up DNA: start with simple units that work together to form something much more complex.
(apologies for poor metaphors, I'm still trying to grasp some of the concepts involved with this)
- edgyquant 3y agoYes neural networks, and even the math required to build them, are very simple calc 1 stuff generally. It’s more coming up with these models that takes powerful intuition
- dartos 3y agoI spent a solid month very confused after reading up on how to implement some basic neural networks. I was sure I missed something, so I didn’t even try to implement it since I was so sure I missed the complicated bit. But no, all the complexity is in the mathematical implications
