In 2017, during my second year at IIMA, I enrolled in an elective course titled "Massive Change: Economics and Finance.”, by an accomplished visiting professor who was also an alum. The class was small and the topic very captivating to me +
Some final context: fighting spam is incredibly *dynamic*. The adversaries, their goals, and tactics evolve constantly – often in response to our work! You can’t build a set of rules to detect spam today, and hope they will still work tomorrow. They will not.
Shocker of a day — admitted 5 patients to liver ICU with alcohol induced liver failure. Disturbingly, ALL had binged on alcohol in the previous 4 weeks.
Sadly, only two of them can be saved by a transplant.
Weekend bingeing may be worse than regular drinking.
Serious risks are: sudden liver failure, seizures, partner harm, criminal behavior, homicide, suicide.
If you suddenly see live stream of Elon Musk giving bitcoin price prediction on your YouTube recommendations, you might be seeing a new scam happening these days. The fraudsters are hijacking YouTube accounts of people with large following.

@Alharbi77000 How do you define complex? There are some e-commerce transaction data in the benchmark but I would be interested to know if those accomplish your needs. If not, what is lacking in terms of complexity you need.
We have created a Fraud Dataset Benchmark which is a compilation of publicly available datasets catered to fraud detection, comprising a variety of fraud related tasks. The Python based library provides API for easy data loading with standardized splits.

Is someone else too interested in knowing common topics in papers/posters accepted in #NeurIPS2022 ? Pre-trained, fine-tuning, language models, self supervised, gradient descent seem to be common topics in Poster Session 3 after removing obvious stop words.
❤️ Feeling blessed to have had an amazing day volunteering as a group leader for education outreach at #NeurIPS2022.
250 high school students from #NewOrleans, all asking great questions about AI ethics, copyright, and applications.
Thank you for organizing, Matt and Jess! 🙏✨
I am in New Orleans this week for #NeurIPS2022. DM me if you want to chat about fraud detection using machine learning or to explore food options nearby.
@elonmusk Actually it has become boring these days, and quite monotonous. I get bored, open Twitter, then get even more bored, and then go back to work.
@GergelyOrosz A few of my hypothesis are:
- many people respect/follow Musk no matter he does and would blindly follow him and believe that he is doing everything right
- people hope to learn a lot by working under his leadership
@fchollet Mastadon has a lot of steps in account creation and then finding the right people to follow, and then understanding different servers. Hope that a clone comes quickly, that is easy to onboard to, has interesting feed from day 1, and people find it interesting enough to switch.
