Offtopic, but this amp page is the cleanest page I've ever seen. I would love to just use the amp version for all TechCrunch pages. Anyone in the mood to make a chrome extension? (I'm on desktop, and the results are still clean without adblocker)
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Looks like Data sets are going to be the moat of AI companies.
open/free data sources are likely to become very important. AI hasn't yet been super-important in the open data world, but I'd expect it to gain a lot of prominence as time goes by.
"Many of these funds are putting time and resources into securing data sets" - this is key.

I'm curious to the opinions of people here on companies collecting data to build data sets vs. privacy.

If, on the other hand, they are talking about making progress on the more traditional dream of AI, the focus on building these data sets seems to be a sad way to lock us into a local maximum for a long time.
Massive curated data sets are crutches that lead us into narrow-minded hyper-specialized systems. Are any of these funds investing in people working on systems that try to make sense of raw sensory data streams? I don't think we're ever going to move away from data sets by creating more and better data sets.

Whenever I see announcements like this, it's very unclear to me what is meant by "AI." Are they talking about basically getting the most out of the current ML/deep learning type systems? If so then I guess building data sets makes sense but it seems more like an uninteresting business strategy than what I think of as pushing AI forward. If, on the other hand, they are talking about making progress on the more traditi…
Yes. That's also my total focus right now. Happy to discuss, email on profile.
I look at announcements like this, and past ones about Ng, and I always marvel at how things have gone since I took and completed his 2011 ML Class... That was one helluva course, challenging and interesting, and fun all at the same time (and so much "concretely" - lol). From what I understand, that course is still available thru Coursera (which Ng booted up after the ML Class experiment; Udacity was Thrun's contribu…
After learning more about him, he's probably the only person in the world that I envy. I resonate with his ideas a lot, but I'm like 1% of what he is. It makes me a bit sad. I'll be taking his new course as well and hopefully one day I will be able to work in the same field as him.

I wrote down my thoughts after taking his new DL course. Hope it helps you all :) https://medium.com/towards-data-science/thoughts-after-takin...
What are "advanced simulation tools" ? something like https://github.com/marcotcr/lime ?
