Continuing the discussion from the previous episode, the trio delves deeper into Machine Learning. Hari is back again and we discuss some examples of Machine Learning models being used in Minecraft, DoTA and Chess. We explore the difference between Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. Will we soon reach a point where AI is as smart as humans? We talk at length about the ethical implications of using machine learning algorithms, whether we ought to wait and see the effects first before adoption or firefight as and when problems arise. Hari also gives his thoughts on how these emerging technologies could be regulated both by corporations and governments.
Following the promise from the previous episode, the trio tackles Machine Learning now! They are joined by their friend Hari, who is pursuing a PhD in Computer Science. In this two-part episode, we discuss what machine learning is using real-life examples. We discuss how Google Images and Google Translate uses machine learning to perform their tasks. We also discuss some common types of ML techniques used, like Supervised, Unsupervised and Reinforcement Learning. We cap off this episode with a 'deep' dive into deep fakes and how Generative models are used to create those videos.
Taking cues from the Netflix documentary, The Social Dilemma, the trio discusses social media and its effects from a multitude of vantage points.
The trio delve into the invisible rules of society and how they program human actions and affect free will.
