Deep Learning
Approximate Inference Turns Deep Networks into Gaussian Processes
Mohammad Emtiyaz E. Khan, Alexander Immer, Ehsan Abedi, Maciej Korzepa
We present theoretical results aimed at connecting the training methods of deep learning and GP models. We show that the Gaussian posterior approximations for Bayesian DNNs, such as those obtained by Laplace approximation and variational inference (VI), are equivalent to posterior distributions ofGPregression models.
AI is indeed coming โ but there is also evidence to allay investor fears
Traders on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as markets fell on Friday morning trading after a steep drop on Thursday, as investors continue to worry about the impact of AI on business and the wider economy. Traders on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as markets fell on Friday morning trading after a steep drop on Thursday, as investors continue to worry about the impact of AI on business and the wider economy. The message from investors to the software, wealth management, legal services and logistics industries this month has been clear: AI is coming for your business. The release of new, ever more powerful AI tools has coincided with a stock market slide, which has swept up sectors as diverse as drug distribution, commercial property and price comparison sites. Advances in the technology are giving increasing credulity to predictions that it could render millions of white-collar jobs obsolete - or, at least, eat into the profits of established companies.
