Every time you send a qubit of information, the Universe will split into two. In one Universe, the information is transmitted successfully. In the other the transmission failed.

The trick is choosing the universe where you transmitted it correctly

For his latest project, Alex Reben, the digital artist behind works like the psychedelic Joy of Painting and the voice-controlled violence of Google Shoots, has trained a neural network to generate original one-line maxims. ...in bed

An AI to generate cooky-fortunes?
We generated those without AI in school; just a matter of combining words into nonsense, also equally mysterious to the real thing.

Another AI fraud. Read carefully and he selects the few that aren't complete nonsense and very likely massages those. In other words, it's another "a computer did this, up until we fixed all the mistakes it made, leaving little, if any, of the work the computer did."

I love that expression - "AI fraud". It's so appropriate for most of these "AI didit" stories, and I'm definitely stealing it for the future.

Buzzwords like “deep learning” and “neural networks” are everywhere, but so much of the popular understanding is misguided, says Terrence Sejnowski, a computational neuroscientist at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. So it's not studying in tunnels?

|
|
|
|
"Originally, people were calling it “pattern recognition,”", but we decided that wasn't bullshitty enough to get grant money, so we now call it 'deep learning.'

A new poll from the Pew Research Center, a nonpartisan fact tank that studies trends, found that many Americans fear they cannot discern a bot from an actual person on social media. Do I have to start wearing a name tag?

Sure, otherwise you can’t tell your Eliza from your Russians at the meetings.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk updated the timeline to release the company’s new neural net computer, which they claimed will be the ‘world’s most advanced computer for autonomous driving’. Someone's been dipping into the "Teslaquila" again

We’ve just published our first cut of the .NET Library Guidance. It’s brand new set of articles for .NET developers who want to create high-quality libraries for .NET. The guidance contains recommendations we’ve identified as common best practices that apply to most public .NET libraries. Does it include adding a random version number?

Printer manufacturers hate third-party ink cartridges. They want you buying the expensive, official ones. Epson and HP have issued sneaky “updates” that break these cheaper cartridges, forcing you to buy the expensive ones. Everyone's gone paperless anyway

When you go into the privacy settings on your browser, there’s a little option there to turn on the “Do Not Track” function, which will send an invisible request on your behalf to all the websites you visit telling them not to track you. Do Not Say?!

It might be that the browser says do not track my user... that the webs do what the browser says, that's another history
