The big UK AI challenge: how to become an international leader

#artificialintelligence

The government's recent investment into AI is a welcome step towards securing the UK's position as a leader in this field, but the road to success is littered with challenges. The best way around them is for the government, private sector and academia to work hand-in-glove to fulfil AI's promise, says Ed Stacey, a partner at IQ Capital, Harnessing artificial intelligence and big data is one of the great opportunities for the UK, as the government rightly recognised in its recently published AI Sector Deal policy paper. In it, the government outlined plans to raise total R&D investment to 2.4% of GDP by 2027. The cash injection into research is most welcome, but we should not consider leadership in an academic field as a triumph. An academic paper that gathers dust, no matter how brilliant and well-argued its case โ€“ is pretty obsolete.


r/artificial - Predictions of AGI Takeoff Speed vs. Years Worked in Commercial Software

#artificialintelligence

This page features a rough depiction of different views on the question of whether artificial general intelligence (AGI) will take off in a "hard" way (fast, no time for response or competition) or a "slow" way (more gradual, more time to integrate with society, possibility of competing projects). I plot these views against a very crude estimate of how long each forecaster has worked on commercial software (not counting academic computer science).

r/MachineLearning - [D] Best open source Text to Speech networks?

#artificialintelligence

Hey guys, I'm looking to make an application that uses neural text to speech for my Python program. I'm not sure what open source SOTA is like, would love to get some reference repositories to check out, especially if they have demos.


r/MachineLearning - [D] Don't common sentiment analysis strategies seem unsatisfying?

#artificialintelligence

There's lots of great projects in Reddit in sentiment analysis, but almost all of the work I've seen focuses on individual posts, as if tweets or reddit comments was simply a list of thumbs up and thumbs down about issues. For example, context, which doesn't seem to get much discussion. One very basic example where this is important: a Reddit comment that itself is booing a negative comment is considered negative. Of course, the nested "negative" comment should actually be counted in favor of the original topic. The relevant fields in NLP would be coreference, and possibly other subfields involving semantics.


r/MachineLearning - [Discussion] How reproducible is deep learning?

#artificialintelligence

I think it is possible, but non-trivial. You are right that you can use seeds to initialize the random number generator to get deterministic numbers for various libraries, but you might have to do it for *each* library, as they (numpy, NN-framworks, etc.) use different generators. Furthermore there are different sources of randomness, e.g. if you learn from scratch you have While you can seed the initializations, fixing the batches might come with a performance hit, as you would have to turn-off parallel batch generation (which many frameworks do, to keep the graphics card fed). There is also the approach to freeze/write-out the weights after just one iteration which solves the weight-initialization randomness. However it is an important question and unfortunately many papers don't even try to make their work reproducible (and I don't blame them because it's not that simple). I have trained networks from scratch with same hyper-parameters and final accuracy differed /- 0.5 percent.


r/deeplearning - how is the result of deeplearning if our data is small

#artificialintelligence

With a small dataset your model will be prone to being overfit. A good rule of thumb is to see if the training data is a good representation (in terms of diversity) of the end-use scenario for the model you are training. I cannot address the pix2code example you mention, but generally speaking if you are training a model to convert A (in your case image) to B (in your case its js code), sometimes you might be able to achieve B to A conversion with deterministic logic. What that means is that if you can automate the process of generating images from js code samples, then you can write your self a script that creates the data-set. This does not guarantee the quality of the data, but is a good strategy to overcome the scarcity of datasets when playing around with deep learning.

Don't watch TV while safety driving

Robohub

The Tempe police released a detailed report on their investigation of Uber's fatality. I am on the road and have not had time to read it, but the big point, reported in many press was that the safety driver was, according to logs from her phone accounts, watching the show "The Voice" via Hulu on her phone just shortly before the incident. This is at odds with earlier statements in the NTSB report, that she had been looking at the status console of the Uber self-drive system, and had not been using her phones. The report further said that Uber asked its safety drivers to observe the console and make notes on things seen on it. It appears the safety driver lied, and may have tried to implicate Uber in doing so.


'Westworld' turns TV viewing into a game, but that's not enough

Engadget

Westworld isn't the first TV show to engross audiences in a sprawling mystery, encouraging you to scour every scene, every scrap of dialog for a morsel of meaning. It's something we've seen with Lost, The Prisoner and Twin Peaks. It has video games in its DNA -- after all, the entire show is about incredibly advanced live action role playing. Creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy also treat the show's narrative like a giant puzzle, where clues are doled out carefully and audiences are often left to figure things out on their own. Viewers took the bait, filling the vacuum with countless podcasts, recaps and online conversations all focused on "solving" Westworld.
