    I do think it could be possible to use an EEG to get ahead of a mouse click faster than the hands and perhaps cut off some milliseconds in delay. But I don’t believe that Elon Musk…

    That’s supervised of a different sort. Also, it may end up learning the effects of the noise which may not reflect real data.

    Status has been important to humans since before humans were humans. It used to be a matter of life and death. I believe the only thing that has changed is our perception about our…

    Google lvl 5 total comp is ~$320K. So it is pretty close and still less than PHP consulting.

    I used to work for them. I still found that I have a $300K ceiling.

    It’s face recognition software, I don’t have a website, and for obvious reasons I’m pretty quiet about it. The field has changed so much that I don’t know if I could still give adv…

    Initially one of those elite consulting marketplace things. And then my own pool of referrals. I hate PHP so I set my rate higher on those projects and people still pay it.

    I’d have a hard time finding a job in ML for $300K but I’d have an easy time finding a job in PHP contracting for $350K. This is despite having 10 years experience as a ML practiti…

    An open question for me is the performance of two 2080tis using NVLink as one virtual GPU. I imagine it’ll be close to linear, but I’ll be interested to know for sure.

    While we’re at this, has anyone got significant training perf improvements for Titan V. Best I’ve seen is 2x of 1080ti for 4x the price.

    I built a face recognition algorithm to sell to police, immigration and pretty much who ever wants it. It took 6 months and is state of the art. Which is to say, not as good as a h…
