I think this post explains tensors fairly well: https://www.kdnuggets.com/2018/05/wtf-tensor.html Quote: "A tensor is a container which can house data in N dimensions. Often and erroneously used interchangeab

I find the relationship (or equivalence?) between data compression and ML highly interesting and expect more advances in data compression fueled by progress in ML research. See also: "Text Compression Is Equivalent to AI", https:

Degrading "developing your people and networking" as "politics" just shows the lack of overall business and people acumen that engineers tend to suffer from. This is not necessarily a bad thing if you are aware of this,

Generative AI and the applications built on top of it. I'm confident we will look back at things like GPT-3, Stable Diffusion or DALL-E as the first child steps of a whole new universe of technological possibilities across a wide range

It depends on the "DL model", which is a highly vague term. Both a model with 10K parameters and a model with 10T parameters fit this description equally Well.

It's true simply because large ANNs have a higher capacity, which is great for large, nonlinear data but less so for small datasets or simple functions. In any case, Transformers are eating ML right now and I'm actually surprised

As usual in ML, the appropriate solution depends on the problem and context. ML (particularly DL) tends to outperform "classical" statistical time series forecasting when the data is (strongly) nonlinear, highly dimensional and la

Thanks for the post, I think these are good and valid points. Question out of curiostiy as this is not my field: On the proxies website you state that there are around 10 million proxies. How are you able to offer this massive amount withou

A big part of the business claim lies in the generalizability. LLMs are basis technology that, once trained, have applications in practically all sectors and businesses, because text and data of other modalities are everywhere. Massive scal

This article says basically nothing. It contains the typical message "Data has biases and we don't know how to solve it. In fact, we don't even know to what extent this is a problem."

It's still "just" next token prediction based on basic math. Yes, we see many astonishing results, at the same time, there is no magic to it. So I don't think that it's not clear what's going on here.

2B is a high valuation even for a great product like HuggingFace - are there any estimations on their ARR available? Even if their revenue was at 10M per year (I'd assume it is less actually) that would be a multiple of 200X.
