I was actually referring more to the general public and not to people with highly sophisticated music tastes. This is a first cultural world problem, so to speak. The vast majority will probably be completely happy with an app that composes

I was using an iOS device at this point, so it was actually impossible for me to watch.

> Its boring as hell. Machines will never understand why That statement seems to be overly strong. Perhaps we are far from having a machine that can figure out high level aspects of a song on its own, but I don't think it's i

Did you consider adding a reset button to the mechanical counter or would it be too hard to push down at this scale?

Obviously!

That's right, CNNs tend to be more concerned with textures rather than with overall shapes. One problem is that CNNs discard a lot of pose information of the detected features during pooling. Another problem is that there is no top-dow

I was more generally speaking. In this case, I think some sort of regulation would be necessary to improve the situation.

Fine, my suggestion to solve this problem democratically was an applause light. It was an unfinished thought and a call for action. I agree that this didn't convey any new information, I just wanted to express my distrust towards the

It also seems clumsy how they appear to mention that a venture capitalist can earn disproportionally more than a hair stylist and that they unfortunately can only improve that by a little amount. The truth is, of course, that they have mai

I'm just questioning whether an autopilot with a profit maximization heuristic is the best tool to guide technological progress. With democratic control I don't necessarily mean our current democratic systems but any kind of decen

They've written though that they have chosen a particular layer in the network, which reads like "independent of the output layer". Features in such a layer correlate with certain classes, but I don't think they have de

Perhaps the argument should be steelmanned in that we should generally avoid using algorithms which are so complex that they aren't glass boxes. I doubt the idea to "simply follow gradients" can prove neural networks to be g

These hair features that get re-interpreted as legs are particularly uncanny.

I just saw that this was a submission to the FQXi contest on "Trick or Truth: the Mysterious Connection Between Physics and Mathematics". I've only read 1st and 2nd place and this piece by Smolin yet, but I'm sure a lot

That's a rather large font though, and no use of hyphenation. Here is the Encyclopædia Britannica for comparison: http://i.imgur.com/qXGfGWa.jpg http://i.imgur.com/obu7D8e.jpg

Foot switches are fun. I've mine configured to various most used functions per app, though it’s mostly PgUp, Back and PgDn. It's great slurping a coffee and browsing the news that way in the morning.

Couldn't you treat the network as a matrix and perform addition and subtraction on it in the same manner?

Dunno, there are some blogs which are quite reputable and often you will find interesting comments on their site. I wouldn't paint it as black and white.
