Staying on top of research is hard. New research doesn't have to be consumed immediately, give it a year if it's still relevant and check citations. We need more peer and quality feedback. Don't drink from firehose. #arxiv

A prediction E(Y| X, E, T) of outcome Y given covariates X is best for that environment E at time T, even if X is constant, E is dynamic and will change with T. Whether E and T should and can be in X is an open question. E and T are usually overlooked (drift).

I think AI in 2030 will be way more busy playing computer games than help humanity, those games are literally made for them, the rewards are so much clearer :)

@iamtrask I wouldn't but someone else would surely (unfortunately)

Christensen's idea of the "job to be done" (customer need) is a great one, and overlooked by some new businesses who start with the tech and not the need #marketing

Instead of a GAN for continuous data you can just extract MultivariateNormal(Mu, Sigma) from the data, and then generate (simulate) your private synthetic data, that maintains variable relationships #syntheticdata

Russian index and Nadaq kind of have the same performance (end point) YTD, I am not sure the sanctions are working
