Shh…The Secret to Building Great AI

At least, that is how I imagine it. I don't have a Ph.D., so I couldn't say for sure, but it seems likely. That is it -- the secret to building great AI systems -- have great data. I could end the article here, but let's take a look at some supporting facts: First, accuracy improvements from growing data set size and scaling computation are empirically predictable. This was part of the conclusion of the paper Deep Learning Scaling is Predictable, Empirically from a group at Baidu.
