A fundamental property of deep learning normalization techniques, such as batch normalization, is making the pre-normalization parameters scale invariant. The intrinsic domain of such parameters is the unit sphere, and therefore their gradient optimization dynamics can be represented via spherical optimization with varying effective learning rate (ELR), which was studied previously. However, the varying ELR may obscure certain characteristics of the intrinsic loss landscape structure. In this work, we investigate the properties of training scale-invariant neural networks directly on the sphere using a fixed ELR. We discover three regimes of such training depending on the ELR value: convergence, chaotic equilibrium, and divergence.

What Happens When Artificial Intelligence Has Read Everything? Article: What Happens When AI Has Read Everything? - The Atlantic (OPEN IN AN INCOGNITO WINDOW to avoid Paywall) Artificial Intelligence has grown exponentially by scanning more and more information online. So, what happens when it's read everything and runs out of material to train on? Read the article above to learn more! Come back here for all the latest Artificial Intelligence News.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly developing field that has the potential to transform many aspects of our lives. One question that has been on the minds of many people is what would happen if AI were to gain control over humans in the future. While it is difficult to predict the exact trajectory of AI development, it is important to consider the potential risks and benefits of such a scenario. One possibility is that AI could become so advanced that it is able to surpass human intelligence and take control of our society. In this scenario, AI could potentially make decisions that are beyond our understanding or control. This could lead to a society where humans are no longer in charge of their own destiny, and where AI is able to manipulate and control us in ways that we cannot fully comprehend.

June 2020: Volkswagen will invest USD 2.6 billion in capital and assets in Ford's self-driving unit ... [ ] Argo AI to market new-technology vehicles in the United States and Europe. Argo.ai, an autonomous vehicle (AV) unicorn, announced on October 26, 2022, that it would terminate operations across its locations in Pittsburgh, San Francisco, New Jersey and Munich. It impacts roughly 2100 employees and, more importantly, puts into focus the feasibility and business model for autonomous transportation on public roads. The company was founded in 2013 by alums of the 2006 DARPA Grand Challenge, Google, and Uber AV initiatives and secured significant backing and funding from Ford in 2017 ($1B) and later from Volkswagen in 2020 ($2.5B). Both investments occurred under the auspices of earlier CEOs, who have since been replaced (Ford CEO Jim Hacket in 2020 and Volkswagen CEO Herbert Deiss in 2022). It is unsurprising that new management saw things differently and did not want to inherit their predecessor's strategic bets.

If you've ever been around kids, you know how limitless their imaginations can be. A simple cardboard box is an endless world of possibilities. What if we let that imagination run wild with DALL-E and Stable Diffusion? That's the amazing thing about the many AI image generators that are available now. Obviously, there are limits to what the AI can do, but you are basically free to enter anything and see what happens.

Milan Jaram describes himself as an artist who "horrifies your cozy childhood memories with dark twists on your favorite shows, cartoons and pop culture." With his AI-fication of Simpsons characters, Jaram has succeeded handily. AI Homer is not looking happy. A muscle-bound, rage-filled Homer looks ready to Hulk-smash his way through Springfield; Marge has morphed into the bride of Frankenstein; and Krusty the Clown's menacing face will be the nightmare of children and clown PR teams everywhere. Mischievous Bart and Millhouse, meanwhile, now have sad, hollow eyes drained of any youthful whimsy, and good-natured Ned Flanders looks totally defeated.

Lyricists must write concretely enough to be evocative, yet vaguely enough to allow each listener his personal interpretation. The nineteen-sixties and seventies saw an especially rich balance struck between resonant ambiguity and massive popularity -- aided, as many involved parties have admitted, by the use of certain psychoactive substances. Half a century later, the visions induced by those same substances offer the closest comparison to the striking fruits of visual artificial-intelligence projects like Google's Deep Dream a few years ago or DALL-E today. Only natural, perhaps, that these advanced applications would sooner or later be fed psychedelic song lyrics. The video at the top of the post presents the Electric Light Orchestra's 1977 hit "Mr. Blue Sky" illustrated by images generated by artificial intelligence straight from its words.

Combine a supposedly good tech hiring market with a Ph.D. from Berkeley AI Research and let's see what we get. In the vein of transparency, I wanted to share my experience in the job search and some notes specific to reinforcement learning as an area. Is there something you want to know about and I didn't share? Please let me know (note, I won't directly share the compensation of the offers I received, please see aipaygrad.es). This post is broken into a few major sections (that may feel somewhat disjointed), and if you're reading on a computer you should be able to see the TOC to the right.

Crypto.com, Microsoft, NVidia, and Okta all got hacked this year. In some hacks, attackers are looking to take data, while some are just trying things out. Either way, it is in the interest of companies to patch up the holes in their security systems as more attackers are learning to take advantage of them. The project I am working on now is one to prevent cyber threats like these from happening. When a company is hacked, there is a lot at stake.

Hello my friend, hope you are well! It's my birthday today and I was supposed to be going for an islands hoping trip, unfortunately due to the rising Covid cases we have no choice but to postpone the plan:'(. Thank you for reading my newsletter . This post is public so feel free to share it. Anyway I was just sharing haha!
