Replying to @hmason
Simple (but fascinating) question! Obvious answer is your (cosine-sim) app for your vector database. Harder answer is how you understand structural relationships (manifolds?) among object embeddings, especially within local neighborhoods. Smashing 1000s dim into 2? 👎

I don’t know about you all, but there is this trend of color coding equations, and I seem to spazz when I see more than 2 or 3 colors.

Rebellious ML students who took time to study causal inference might wish to look into this company causalens.ai that is looking to hire research scientists to lead their expanding operations.
Thrilled to announce our latest $45m funding round! Thank you so much to everyone who made this possible including @DoriltonC, @MoltenVentures, @GPBullhound, @IQ_Capital_Fund, @GenVenVC, @fomcap and all others! For more information see: lnkd.in/dRH8Fst2

In 2021, what do you think is the single most important problem that the AI community should be working on?

Because deep learning is so empirical, success in it is to a large extent proportional to raw experimental throughput - the ability to babysit a large number of experiments at once, staring at plots and tweaking/re-launching what works. This is necessary, but not sufficient.

Just reading through the recent "[A] Survey on Neural Network Interpretability" (arxiv.org/abs/2012.14261) and there is this really cool interactive figure summarizing the respective literature in a 3D scatterplot (link to the interactive version: yzhang-gh.github.io/tmp-data……)

I wonder how many programmers even know what a "Stack Overflow" is? Yeh, its a website that took their name from microprocessor instructions and functions... I miss assembler code sometimes.

Neural nets are the core machinery that make deep learning so powerful. This radical new design scraps the layers entirely to overcome a major shortcoming in AI. trib.al/ROUK6SX

I am increasingly convinced that the only way for us to change what do we do is to change how we think of ourselves. How we act is a reflection of who we believe we are.
