보스턴 다이나믹스 이번 영상은 그냥 역사를 보여주고 미래 비전을 말하면서 아이들을 같이 보여주는 좀 뻔한 형식.

중간에 나오는 미래장면이...
노동자들 다 로봇으로 대체되고, 행복한 전형적인 백인 집을 보여줘서 좀 무섭네 ㅋ

日本の国防予算が2%を越えたら、世界第3位の軍事大国になるという件なのだけど、少子高齢化の国でどうするのかなと思ってるんだけど、兵隊増やせないなら要するに日本もガンガン軍事ドローンを買いますよという事なんだろうか。
ドローン競争になったら、安くAI搭載ドローンを生産できる中国にはますます敵わない気がする。

戦争になってドローンがどんどん爆弾落とす中で逃げ遅れたジジババから死んでいく世界か。

途上国みたいに子供が沢山死ぬのも悲劇だが、高齢者が沢山死ぬのも悲劇な事は間違いない。

The Hilton Hotel that refused reservations from DHS officials has now backpedalled and said it will accommodate them. Came after DHS X account posted emails. For years the right coalesced around businesses being able to refuse customers of certain demographics

演算法這門科技,是需要有數據資料才能夠運作的。而這些數據資料的來源,就是我們這些天天上網、天天餵資料給它的使用者們。演算法的出現,確實改變了我們的生活;而另一方面,演算法所帶來的焦慮,同樣也對我們的生活造成了影響。演算法承諾會替我們做決策、會對我們的想法和慾望做出最佳估測,並進而介入了我們的生活,於是某種「演算法心態」便於焉誕生了。所謂的「演算法心態」,不僅僅只涉及演算法的運作模式而已,它同時也指涉著社會大眾對於演算法科技的高度依賴。即使我們對演算法鋪天蓋地的影響力有所不滿,但我們依舊依賴演算法,讓它代替我們自己做決定。

第二章 演算法如何壞了你的品味?

079

我們要先投入時間,才能深有體會;我們得去經驗陌生的事物,才能領會到真正的驚奇。然而,演算法的運作邏輯,卻完全與此相反。畢竟,演算法系統的運作之道,靠的就是去收集、去分析數位平臺上的使用者們「已經喜歡了什麼樣的東西」。光靠演算法推薦,你幾乎不可能看到孟德斯鳩所說的那種「初看沒什麼有趣,細究之下才令人大感驚奇」的作品。事實上,演算法系統的整個架構,從頭到尾都在鼓勵你「別花太多時間欣賞任何特定的內容」。在網路上,當你看到某個一瞬間讓你感到無聊的東西時(也許趣味深深藏在細節裡)通常你也就只會把它滑走,而不會細細品味它的精彩之處。在演算法當道的時代,人們變得越來越不耐煩,而那些表面上很酷的事物,則越來越大行其道。

The Lottery Ticket Hypothesis: Finding Sparse, Trainable Neural Networks

Neural network pruning techniques can reduce the parameter counts of trained networks by over 90%, decreasing storage requirements and improving computational performance of inference without compromising accuracy. However, contemporary experience is that the sparse architectures produced by pruning are difficult to train from the start, which would similarly improve training performance. We find that a standard pruning technique naturally uncovers subnetworks whose initializations made them capable of training effectively. Based on these results, we articulate the "lottery ticket hypothesis:" dense, randomly-initialized, feed-forward networks contain subnetworks ("winning tickets") that - when trained in isolation - reach test accuracy comparable to the original network in a similar number of iterations. The winning tickets we find have won the initialization lottery: their connections have initial weights that make training particularly effective. We present an algorithm to identify winning tickets and a series of experiments that support the lottery ticket hypothesis and the importance of these fortuitous initializations. We consistently find winning tickets that are less than 10-20% of the size of several fully-connected and convolutional feed-forward architectures for MNIST and CIFAR10. Above this size, the winning tickets that we find learn faster than the original network and reach higher test accuracy.

Given everything happening right now, I updated this article with options for weather apps, web forms, and translation services — along with some tweaks to existing categories.

I hope it helps your transition off US tech!
