      That's always been the case, and is a general rule in engineering.
      What she's talking about is specific to Machine Learning in the sense that, a decade ago it was still mostly an academic pursuit and they were simply trying to figure out how to approach the problem i.e. how to translate the mathematics to code and optimize the running because after all the code runs on millions of data points and it had to be optimized as much as it can. Now it'll all about getting the end result right, because the basic platform has been mostly laid correctly, and more so because the results are being used for real-life application. So, getting them right is the big problem now.

      @@sliceofbread29yrago52 That's incorrect. At the most fundamental level there are undeniable truths (not even facts). The realm of metaphysics with application of the most fundamental logical axioms (fundamental epistemology) can move you in a direction that is rigorous at the most fundamental level of philosophical debate. Whether you accept those facts is dependent if you agree with the logic. But if the logic is intrinsic and thus axiomatic, then not adhering to said logic will show itself in fallacies down the road. Certain philosophies are factually incorrect because they rely on axioms that are based on nothing but faith (like Altruism as a core in many ethical and political philosophies). By faith I'm not referring only to a higher power/religion, although that is a fairly popular example. If the answer to your axioms when asked "why?" is "because" rather than a proper rigorous answer, then it is fallacious at its core.
      What I explained right now is not something that most people accept in higher education philosophy which I think is absurd since it's something anyone can confirm for themselves with various simple thought experiments, so I wouldn't expect a Wired video of this type to be good at all.

It was mostly just the computation that was lacking to be able to train these models. And the big advancement in the last few years has been the transformer architecture (2017). Transformers are the future (for now), and are behind most media coverage stories lately, like GPT-3 and Codex!

    WOW THIS IS SO INTERESTING!!! I’ve recently been very interested with machines, computer science, and stuff like that. This was a great video that makes me even more curious about this topic!!

    Finally something I can actually understand beyond the college level 😂😂😂 Writing my thesis on a specific topic with GANs

    The guest expert actually repeats the same sentence twice 20:23 (until "...living up to its expectation") and then 21:19

    how would you differentiate between putting them under some cluster or under some labels. They are exactly the same thing in some sense, its just that we have a fixed variable (columns) which is used to group them (no matter what different variables say about those) in supervised. Whereas in unsupervised we don't have any column like this (labels). Am I correct?

    I think it is better to put what the explained concept is in the title. I don't remember ever clicking one of these videos but this one was an instant 'add to watch later'

    These videos are incredible. If you can't explain it to a child then you don't understand it

    Crazy this was 2 years ago because rn machine learning is popping off and it is very easy to implement existing tools

    Loved the last conversation, learned a lot about what data scientists are struggling with and where they see the field heading!
