Google’s Machine Learning Algorithms Outpacing Engineers’ Ability to Understand How they Work
“Google no longer understands how its “deep learning” decision-making computer systems have made themselves so good at recognizing things in photos.
What stunned [Google Software Engineer] Quoc V. Le is that the software has learned to pick out features in things like paper shredders that people can’t easily spot – you’ve seen one shredder, you’ve seen them all, practically. But not so for Google’s monster.
Many of Quoc’s pals had trouble identifying paper shredders when he showed them pictures of the machines, he said. The computer system has a greater success rate, and he isn’t quite sure how he could write a program to do this.
Google researchers can no longer explain exactly how the system has learned to spot certain objects, because the programming appears to think independently from its creators, and its complex cognitive processes are inscrutable. "
omg i hate this game i hate it i hate it im getting to the point where im just mashing random buttons half asleep and fucking up i hate it ive spents hours of this i have homework but noo instead im just playing this fucking game i dont even see the numbers anymore i just see colours and a blurred mess this game has ruined my life
I don’t want Homestuck to turn into the kind of fandom where you can’t like your favorite character without fear of bullying. If you like Vriska, good she has a good arc and is pretty. If you like Aranea, oh my yes things got interesting for her recently. If you like Gamzee, yes he is written very well isn’t he. Hell, you can like Lord English and people shouldn’t give you crap.
