      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.

    I think this is a fantastic video because it gives you insight just how machine learning concepts have not only transformed over the years but in the last conversation they really emphasize just how important data collection is and how to mitigate "biases". I think it is incredible because biases may be considered inappropriate or offensive data but we need to consider if it is actually useful when developing software products or other tools.

      Although many of the main model architectures of deep learning already existed ~25 years ago: standard neural networks (80s), convolutional neural networks (80s), LSTMs (90s). 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!

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

    The expert wasn't aware of uses of AI in agriculture, but I remember seeing a video of a system that goes up and down the rows of a field with a camera, uses AI to recognize weeds, and applies an herbicide to the weeds without getting it on the crop plants. So cool.

      I think she meant more general adoption of ML in agriculture, and use at governmental levels to predict loss stoppage and population need, etc. It's still pretty niche and limited in scope in ag.

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

    that last talk is absolutely marvellous. I have got lost in my thought especially when a guest asked about is ML used for the good purposes. That would provably be a good idea for the next Netflix series :D . Scary...
    We are trackable and even at some extend predictable

    I love how the conversation transitioned to human side situations, challenges and possibilities of ML in next years when started to speak with the expert.
