Still Waters Run Deep Learning

Minecraft Oil Rig Platform by N11ck ( YouTube link ) A New Machine To study deep learning, one must eventually run training algorithms for the neural networks, and this requires quite a bit of computational power. Depending on how recently you purchased your computer, and what it is used for, it may or may not be enough. Perhaps you are a heavy PC gamer, perhaps you use your computer to do video editing, or perhaps you are a game developer and have a top of the line PC, in which case it's likely that your current computer can handle the load for networks up to a certain complexity. As my laptops are several years ago by now, they will not be able to handle the workload, and I must look for an alternative. Cloud Versus Personal Computer Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII. He won't run your workloads, but he will save your planet from destruction. The first choice to be made is whether you will rely on computational resources in the cloud, or have a personal mac...

Youth I've had interest in artificial intelligence since I was a wee lad, from science fiction books to TV series to movies. It opened up my imagination to worlds that could be, populated by strange and fascinating and terrible beings barely on the edge of my comprehension. ____________________________________________________________ Books  Issac Asimov's Robot series I, Robot, a collection of short stories by Issac Asimov In Issac Asimov's Robot series ( Wikipedia link , Goodreads link ) , robots were governed by three simple laws of robotics: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws. But these simple laws interacted with the situation that they were in to create inter...
