This article is weird. I work with ML (AI is overloaded term) and don't recognize myself in this article at all. It seems to be written for managers, politicians, or economists or something. It is like stating: "The…
Glad I am not the only one. This seems like a task of memory, not author identification. How could this be used at test time? 10.000 users is meaningless on a social network with millions of accounts. What about the…
Reminds me of this Tweet by Donald Trump: > Nobody should be allowed to burn the American flag - if they do, there must be consequences - perhaps loss of citizenship or year in jail! [1] Luckily the US has safeguards in…
I firmly believe (though in these matters it is hard to prove) that China and the US are in a technological AI war, with the first to largely automate their economy getting the biggest piece of the pie. One needs…
> "Suits make a corporate comeback," says the New York Times. Why does this sound familiar? Maybe because the suit was also back in February, September 2004, June 2004, March 2004, September 2003, November 2002, April…
I sometimes think I am like a storm glass or barometer. If there is a huge storm brewing that meter is going up or down. From my perspective I am doing exactly what I am thinking about doing, this storm really wants to…
> But this illusion is good enough to allow us to act in the world. We don't call it illusion, we just call it the world. I like calling it a "world model". Optical illusions proof that this "world model" can be…
"The line we placed there was arbitrary. The division it creates is the very cause of the problems of consciousness. Science experiments show that it is likely at the wrong location, no matter how confident we were when…
I think it was because in a time where objectivism ruled, consciousness was still a highly subjective subject. "Consciousness Explained" was an effort to discover the other side of the coin. A subjectivist sees art, and…
It addresses the issue by telling you: Don't worry about consciousness in the first place. How your higher-level cognitive faculties see and categorize consciousness is proven to be an illusion. Eliminate this singular…
When people imagine their consciousness/free will faculty as its own object, they sometimes see a theatre/stage, where they are in the audience and can observe the central point where consciousness ends up forming, or a…
No, and some philosophies deem consciousness unnecessary/irrelevant. To them, consciousness is a byproduct of brain activity, much like the heat generated from a burning lamp.…
Let's say you add these digital signature variables to your credit risk scoring model anyway. The model then falls prey to confusing correlation with causation. What happens to the performance of the model?
You still owe any debts after 7 years (up to 15 years in some states). Zombie debt is not "completely clear". But ok, read "mess up your credit score for 7 years" instead. Then point remains: Marginal high-risk credit…
People with the exact same FICO score have different default rates, if you manage to bin them by race: Asians > Caucasians > Latin > Black. > We do get a some variables even if we are not allowed to use them. Cool, so…
Let's change the game. You can allocate an investment to either of two banks. When building credit scoring models, one bank has access to just FICO scores, the other bank also has access to FICO scores in addition to…
Let's play a game. You are in charge of a large pile of cash and want to make it grow by giving loans. Each day, two people apply, and you can give out one loan (you will have to rank the applicants). When people…
You can overdo fairness and cause troubles to the poor. Very concretely: Giving someone a loan, despite their credit score being marginal, will severely mess up their credit score forever, if they can't repay you. If…
Not a flamethrower.
DARPA/IARPA now invests in search 2.0: Instead of asking it to retrieve stored information, you can instruct an agent/search bot to perform tasks for you. For instance, one should be able to search for: "who is the…
It is referring to https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.02943 What you are referring to is possible, but is not "copying" per se, just trying to infer what the system is doing (inverse RL), and then exploit that/make it do…
No it is not possible. Other users similar to you provide the data to help track you, so you'd have to circumvent this all together. The industry is moving to cross-device tracking to track you over multiple devices,…
Yes, the standard way to do this a few years back for conversion optimization, was to RLE compress and send the data in intervals. Also the resolution/measurement does not need to be in the milliseconds.

There are not any, since there are no public stock market models worth copying, and no stock market model takes external input. But if they did (you could give a time-series to a model in the cloud, and it would give…
