I wish you knew the history of H2O's attempts to make a decent product. H2O, the open-source project, was largely created by H2O the company's technical co-founder, Cliff Click, who was forced out of the company more than a year a

I'm negative on marketing fluff. You're free to enjoy it of course. >> Umm just like how everyone else does it. Wrong. Their ability to maintain and extend any of those libraries is limited. TensorFlow is hundreds of thousan

Let me get this straight: H2O's contribution to this project is a bunch of deep-learning libraries that they didn't create? How will they maintain and extend that? Do they know how credibility in open-source works? H2O wrote its r

BlackRock isn't a whole lot more advanced than many other asset managers. So sure, Wall St. uses algorithms to trade, but that's not really news... Separately, BlackRock bought FutureAdvisor so that it could use machines to do the

This article's main table suffers from the inaccurate assumption that funding round size and frequency correlates with promise. What's worse, Quid is including a "hotness" factor for the sector the startups work in, so t

IBM's PR in AI and now this is nauseating. They are discrediting the tech industry by repeatedly promising more than they can deliver. I wonder if their PR team even speaks with their engineers, who must be cringing.

I know Dan Whaley, the author of the post, personally. This is not about promoting a company. This is about allowing people with knowledge to combat fake news. He has been working to make annotation a web standard for years. The fake news t

One of the rarest and most under-appreciated skills in tech is the ability to explain things. As an industry, we mostly focus on building and selling, and the twain don't always meet. Many of the builders have deep and excellent unders

I can't tell if this guy is a jerk or just pretending to be a jerk. But the tone is pitch perfect. Even the title is pure jerky clickbait. Here's a dude who talks about visioning as his main skill, is surprised when small groups

This is a sloppy piece making grand claims about a man who likes to make grand claims about himself. By most accounts, Schmidhuber is only marginally involved with nnaisense, lending his name to the endeavor so that some of his graduate stu

This is a classic vanity deep-learning framework that Intel built due to NIH syndrome. It's like DSSTNE. Doomed to be abandoned. I can't a worse way to position a deep learning library than to say: this only works on CPUs. When yo

Nobody knows exactly. So any precise estimate is guaranteed to be wrong. But people smarter than me, and deeply involved with current research, have said they think strong AI could happen in 10 years or so. Others think it's much furth

He does not address it in the article. As with most of his points, that one is irrelevant. What's important here is that AI is beating more and more complex games such that, directionally, it eventually be able to play (cough) the game

They beat Go 10 years before anyone predicted. The point is that AI is accelerating in its progress.

Marvin Minsky is dead, so you shouldn't refer to him in the present tense. He is unable to have opinions about current events. Secondly, Minsky was skeptical about neural nets, and he was ultimately proven wrong. Even great minds make

He wrote this about a year before AlphaGo beat Lee Sedol... which happened 10 years before anyone expected. The singularity in the mirror could be much closer than it appears, and everything he writes tells me he knows nothing about AI. Thi

I'm surprised at how little DHH says here. He could have stopped writing after the fifth paragraph. Or just added the phrase "Don't blame your tools" to the headline. Like bad code, this post is verbose and most of its v

This used to be the basis of Siri I think. Not sure it is any more, and not sure it's state of the art of speech recognition, given what neural nets can do.
