What about jewish contributors? Sheldon adelson was one of the main donors.


I want to remind all other us voters that the french created the guillotine for this exact scenario, might be worth keeping in mind.
It s like a quadrilateral but it s called a goonilateral. Great for bonding with your buds and learning geometry. Next week i might teach you kids where the clitoris is.


Really cool to hear and my mistake, I am used to people pretending to be engineers far more often than being engineers, If I can ask, what s the denso for?
Also Bridgeports are dope, I loved to machine steel at the labs in school, but Im a bit younger haha, the bridgeports were 75yo, tried to tear my arms off because who needs machine security? and my profs would tell me to stick to them “because you ll be a sissy if you spend all your time on the rinky dink newer chinese mills”


I know it is but I do not want to call it an algorithm? I’m asking as someone who doesn t work in it but pretty close. As I see it, AI is a set of functions turned into tensor operations in a dimensional space (basically my university matrices class) and the parameters weights are adjusted based on collected data (human data as i understand in this case it could be reddit comment libraries or books or Meta data ).
That last bit is why I don’t confuse it with an algorithm since then it would be a heuristic. Algos are predictible, like running a graphic simulation that uses a physical and logic model, yeah id agree that s all a system of algorithms. Heuristic in terms of structure and method may look like algorithms but they are “rule of thumb” approximations for specific problems where we cannot build a math system (like an algo). At this point it is the human element and adaptation of the AI to you that would make it a heuristic.
Makes sense?


So we went from “i make robotics” to figuring out you re a CNC operator typing in G-code…? listen man, pure theoretical engineering and using mastercam or whatever MCAD/CAD software to cut up some chunk of 6061 aluminium or soft steel is not the same, and I say this as someone who has done both.


Computer vision and machine learning has little to do with robotics, but alright since you seem to work with know something about thermodynamics and are not a sys_admin like all the desk jockeys, i ll be nice and call you the E word.
But robotics itself is such a small niche that random people invoke because they see it in movies that I am skeptical to believe it as a systems and automation engineer, that s basically as close as 95% of engineer will ever get to robotics unless you re in China (mechatronics is not robotics btw) or work for Kuka/ABB…


Algorithms are discrete operations done in a sequence, they are typically blind to ideas or personal opinions and are used for data processing, filtering, or calculations. Facial recognition algorithms are typically what you would call a complex algorithm as it uses conditions based on what the camera captures to make decisions as to where the face of said person is, if it is a person, are they smiling? What are their physical traits? Do they have white, brown, or dark skin, to adjust the contrast level for a good photo.
Artificial intelligence models are not math driven. They are language models, trained through machine learning and operating on a transformer architecture. Not only do they not replicate the reasoning a human (they predict the probability of action based on statistics of choices of others) and are most definitely going to be used to influence choices and opinions, not in an educational manner but in coercive and controlling manner. And it will become very hard to understand what AI produced propaganda will become. Even scarier though to me, is that it will be even harder to understand the effects of AI use, since all political actions have a direct effects which are often easy to predict, but they also cause these “ripple effects” which are the more dangerous side of politics and these ripple effects caused by AI use in politics will be impossible to predict for me, you and the AIs due to their early stage.


Meanwhile I, systems engineer wonders why the IT dude called himself an “engineer”


Heh, trump does not care about unifying or saving Ukraine, he just cared about not wasting american military ressources going after a war that was just a failed attempt at expanding nato closer to Russian borders. If that happened, they would be able to sneak in covert military members far more easily.
I meant this as in, Trump has shown preferentialism for white nations as far as accords he has signed. Whilst Obama was trying in his time to negotiate the trans pacific partnership in his time, Trump has been avoiding people who do not have the same skin color as him. It speaks a lot on his intelligence imo.


Trying to unite all the good white nations? Definitely not white supremacist.


What most people call “algorithms” are not algorithms, artificial intelligences have replaced math formulas to back the recommendations your phone makes to you. Welcome to techno-feudalism!


Just like the luddites.
I think the dumb one is the one who believes that the financial times will disclose classified intelligence operation. If Huang had done it, he’d be locked up.
