Wikipedia itself states "the adage fails to make sense with questions that are more open-ended than strict yes-no questions". I guess this means there's no black or white answer but shades of gray. How shocking: reality is mo

That's assuming human minds and computers won't exponentially increase their processing capabilities. Moore's law disproves the later and I hope Neuralink or some other crazy tech company will disprove the former. That's

Really? I think if we were to bring back our close ancestors (4-5 generations away) they'd look at our world like we see Harry Potter's: pure magic. I mean flying metal birds, fire that instantly turns on and off, machine that mov

Sounds like a pretty bad experience indeed - surprised that was their recommendation vs completely anonymizing the data. You didn't share if you went ahead with it and saw any results? If so, it sounds like they were not good. Either w

Respectfully disagree. Again, I'm not suggesting SD will solve all problems. Big data is critical and will remain so. However, using a combination of SD and real data will make AI algorithms more robust than using big data alone. I do

Disagree, otherwise I obviously wouldn't have written this piece. ;) Synthetic data (SD) is not a silver bullet that will solve all problems, but it opens up a lot of opportunities. I'm seeing cool startups using SD to accelerate

All valid points - thanks for the comment. 1. Totally agree with the point about data science talent being one of the bottlenecks. And in that area, the big tech companies already have the best & brightest workforce. Most data is crap i

Age should definitely be taken into account. He was a kid when he did this. Do you really think he understood all the ramifications of his actions?
