He wrote the article as a research article. So every time he put an statement he referenced it with a research article which supports that statement. I don't understand why this is wrong. All research papers are written this way.

There is a difference between having a bad teacher and not liking something. You always loved math, you didn't like how teachers were teaching you math. I have been a teacher, I know what a difference a teacher can do.

Well... They said the same in the industrial era. There are a lot of things to consider, for example: - AI might not like to work, as we don't like to work - You suppose that if you create AI then the AI can create a more intelligence

Not now, but if you can really create AI, it shouldn't be indistinguishable of human Intelligence. My point is that it is unlikely to make big steps now to advance in PL, but it is very likely you can do it in AI. The last 5 years have

As a machine learning researcher I have to say that you should join us too! AI is the future! PL is an area with big challenges, but AI has even bigger challenges and the impact in the society is bigger, much bigger, too. I would change the

I think the are 2 main reasons: TF is backed by Google and you can use for research and production (server & mobile) with minor changes. You can also train your TF models in the cloud without having to setup anything (as in Google Cloud

She means that aiming to 50-50 doesn't represent the skills set. As women are more skilled for that job they should have more representation (based on the biological theory). If it is a 50-50 you are promoting men in the positions when

If it based on the genes because of the chromosome X and Y then I think there is no reason why it wouldn't apply to any specie with chromosomes X Y.

I think this is related with the XY chromosome. Because you have the Y instead of the X you have a part where you don't have 2 genes to encode a feature. So there is not gen dominant and recessive. This leads a more variation when the
