A Star Wars Story by Sentient Droid
Imagine, droids came to the 21st century with the knowledge of the future but only had current technology to rewrite their Star Wars story. In this article, we will see how a droid (machine learning model) generates its Star Wars story using knowledge of the future (Star Wars books). The model takes the input sequence of words. We use LSTM to understand the context in a sentence. Since simple RNN would have vanishing gradient problem, so for the text generation I am using LSTM.
'White Mirror' on the wall - what does the future hold for us all ?
It's time to reset, re-create and collaborate on a new paradigm where Compassion and Kindness are the prevailing norms, one where technology is a tool for making humans more humane and creating an Abundant world for the majority. Join us to turn this vision into reality. Let's look into the'White Mirror' … Inspired by Black Mirror (Netflix series) - 'White Mirror' (holding name while we devise a suitable one) provides an immersive flash forward (glimpse/vision) of our Utopian future. In uncertain times (like now), technological disruption and impactful stories can change our mental worldview - our perceptions and eventually our reality. Black Mirror is a powerful show, depicting a dystopian future caused in part by misused evolving technologies.
Listen to Metaflow: Netflix Machine Learning Platform with Savin Goyal
"Brings us to aws flicks took the at the time unconventional decision to go all in on aws many years ago at this point, and that's treated. The the whole idea around blessed programming languages where you make a strong decision within an organization to restrict the number of programming languages with an organization and it it that constraint ends up helping the organization make decisions more quickly and allow for engineering mobility and so on. This has been the case with aws when when Netflix? Strongly moved onto aws and continue to do that. That extends to medfly show. A better flow is an open source framework, but it has a tight coupling with aws. So why is the tight coupling to aws useful for machine learning framework? Sue I won't say that. We are tightly coupled to eight of us. So when leave it open sourcing MEDOFF. No at that point in time, because we had a good amount of operational expertise with aws, we chose indicating the details are ready for this cloud integration, ...
Microsoft's AI generates voices that sing in Chinese and English
Researchers at Zhejiang University and Microsoft claim they've developed an AI system -- DeepSinger -- that can generate singing voices in multiple languages by training on data from music websites. In a paper published on the preprint Arxiv.org, The work -- like OpenAI's music-generating Jukebox AI -- has obvious commercial implications. Music artists are often pulled in for pick-up sessions to address mistakes, changes, or additions after a recording finishes. AI-assisted voice synthesis could eliminate the need for these, saving time and money on the part of the singers' employers.
Machine Learning Can Help Detect Misinformation Online
As social media is increasingly being used as people's primary source for news online, there is a rising threat from the spread of malign and false information. With an absence of human editors in news feeds and a growth of artificial online activity, it has become easier for various actors to manipulate the news that people consume. Finding an effective way to detect malign information online is an important part of addressing this issue. RAND Europe was commissioned by the UK Ministry of Defence's (MOD) Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) to develop a method for detecting the malign use of information online. The study was contracted as part of DASA's efforts to help the UK MOD develop its behavioural analytics capability.
Building a Deep-Learning-Based Movie Recommender System
With the continuous development of network technology and the ever-expanding scale of e-commerce, the number and variety of goods grow rapidly and users need to spend a lot of time to find the goods they want to buy. To solve this problem, the recommendation system came into being. The recommendation system is a subset of the Information Filtering System, which can be used in a range of areas such as movies, music, e-commerce, and Feed stream recommendations. The recommendation system discovers the user's personalized needs and interests by analyzing and mining user behaviors and recommends information or products that may be of interest to the user. Unlike search engines, recommendation systems do not require users to accurately describe their needs but model their historical behavior to proactively provide information that meets user interests and needs.
