Using an innocuous encoding of a word is a form of encryption. People who expect to be under surveillance agree on a set of code words to denote illegal things. Though hard, there …

Thanks for elaborating. > At some point the machine fact-checking relies on data input by humans. But so does nearly every ML model? In the case of a spell checker it is using corp…

Resulting models will likely be released as open source, and the techniques published in open journals. The big money is in productionizing and running it on bigger datasets. Kaggl…

1. Google has been an AI company from the very beginning (information retrieval). 2. Google is investing and doing generally useful applied AI, not an AGI moonshot. 3. Google's AI …

Surely Google follows their own guidelines: You can't find Google Search Engine results indexed on Google itself (or any other search engine with or without ads for that matter). G…

> You can't reduce fact checking to an algorithm. Can you elaborate on why you think fact-checking is beyond the capability of machines?

Cool. I knew of previous work [1], but not the recent paper you posted. Thanks. [1] https://arxiv.org/abs/1412.6056 "Predicting Deeper into the Future of Semantic Segmentation"

AI hype journalists will find something to write about, regardless of the industry making their research accessible to the wider public. Markov-chain generators have been around fo…

Beating the state-of-the-art with one-shot learning is not common. Transfer learning for NLP is also quite unchartered. Also the technique is quite novel: This is not pre-trained n…

Reminds me of http://artcontext.net/act/06/glyphiti/docs/index.php a black and white multiplayer canvas that has been running since 2001. They also animate the progress here: http:…

It is possible to leak information, but then you are doing it wrong. Don't use only a single out of time test set to do parameter or model selection, keep an out of time holdout se…

Is a mistake still a mistake when it is a profitable action? If fitting to human irrationality increases generalization performance, then it does not matter if the "machines seem d…

This implies the time machine can go only one way. Taking information from the future back in time is worth more than taking information from the current to the future. We do the l…

Then look at backtesting. The evaluation data set is out of time, meaning the better than random performance is on unseen future data. The algorithm was implemented, not merely a s…

> If it's so easy why not to identify directly which stocks to invest in? It is not easy. Both to set-up, and the problem itself (you won't get a very high accuracy, but you will g…

It's not a case of exclusive or. Gather a list of a 100 or so human stock pickers. Train a model to predict the effect of following their suggestions (buy, hold, sell) to both iden…

Bagel = Kay-gel Haggle = Kah-gl I wonder about your dialect, if for you, "bagel" rhymes with "gaggle".
