Hilbert spaces with infinite dimension you mean?

How is this substantially different from a 3 year old post here: https://distill.pub/2017/feature-visualization/ ? I mean they added some web interface widgets, some cool java scri…

They had to take down all their content but here is a sample of what it looked like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnQ-BS7Ui54

I feel _exactly_ the same. And I know many, many other people who feel the same thing too. Apple will eventually run into a wall, like it did before in the 90's. They don't have a …

Oh, somebody got triggered here! Yes, there is sarcasm in this post! And if you don't like it, fine. But please, don't give me bullshit about being a jerk. I think you probably hav…

This may indeed be interesting, but that is not what this paper focuses on.

I'm not sure how to interpret these pictures. They don't suggest anything to me. And certainly don't suggest anything about the quality of representations. And BTW how do you measu…

Yes it is certainly not fair that the network they spend one page explaining and probably weeks training and researching can be hardwired in 30 lines of python. This is very unfair…

Author of the post here: I think their paper would have been much better if they included the piece of code which I wrote in python to explain that the transformation they are lear…

Author of the post here. I totally agree that negative stuff should be published. But without the fanfares. I think they could have changed the tone of that paper and I would not h…

The post mocks them primarily for learning the trivial coordinate transform. That is the core of the paper and ridiculing this piece leaves very little left on the table. The Image…

Author here (of the post, not the paper). I think you don't understand how science works. The whole point of the exercise (which indeed may have been forgotten these days) is to at…

No, there is something special to machine learning and AI in general. E.g. SIGGRAPH papera are different. No one there claims to solve more than they actually do solve. DL is soake…

Right, I totally agree. What is more, I think this same result could actually be sold without the pompous deep learning bullshit and be received quite differently. If they did not …

Author here: seriously I'm here at the front page for the second day in the a row!? The sheer viral popularity of this post, which really was just a bunch of relatively loose thoug…

It's not like humanity really needs another chess playing program 20 years after IBM solved that problem (but now utilizing 1000x more compute power). I just find all these game pl…

> Also why does every single result has to be breathtaking? If you build the hype like say Andrew Ng it better be. Also if you consume more money per month than all the CS departme…

I'm skeptical, and side with Rodney Brooks on this one. First, reinforcement learning is incredibly inefficient. And sure, humans and animals have forms of reinforcement learning, …

I sure agree there are many interesting things going on, there is no question about that. Also most of them are toy problems focused in some restricted domains, while a huge bag of…

Sure, but have you heard about Moravec's paradox? And if so, don't you find it curious that over the 30 years of Moore's law exponential progress in computing almost nothing improv…

Sure it is not technically a loan. But it carries the same sentiment change when it blows up. People get extremely cautious, to the point of skipping some really good ideas. And no…

> Yes. Sensationalist. Yes, perhaps. But I'm entitled to my opinion just as you are entitled to yours. And time will tell who was right. > So your explicit reason for omitting Waym…
