@herf Correct. They said end of 2018. https://t.co/m56wBUswHg

The industry is starving for #AI experts. And where do you find data scientists to hire? Obviously at #TheAIConf https://t.co/Q7bKRcjg5E

@nmstoker It’s not complicated. It’s impossibly vast. And complicated.

The Dev kit (inclusive of hardware) ships this year. I absolutely need one to review for @hplus and experiment

Amazing to see @CTRLLabsCo keynoting #TheAIConf and showing for the first time their technique to decode biological neurons with digital neurons. Their neurocontrol is truly impressive. https://t.co/EoCVu4QBXY

So, in other words, Facebook manipulates reality (represented by the newsfeed) to give users exactly what they want to see/read/hear, leveraging direct information (what you liked in the past) and indirect one (friends network). Like a gigantic echo chamber. https://t.co/OwINNGvx34

At #TheAIConf, @Facebook describes the scale challenges of its personalized newsfeed:

1. 2B users’ feeds
2. 1000 stories candidate for each user on avg
3. Real time

And its architecture.

For each story they use #AI to calculate probability of commenting, liking, etc. https://t.co/Ay4OuidsEA

I remain highly skeptical about the value of IT conference keynotes about quantum computing. Whoever goes on stage has to spend 10min to explain the basics of quantum mechanics and most people need more time to grasp it because of how weird it is. Like IBM right now at #TheAIConf

Another very interesting project mentioned in the context of cybersecurity at #TheAIConf is the @nvidia GPU Open Analytics Initiative. https://t.co/GalpoCj8e4

Very smart (and much appreciated) move by @OReillyMedia: printing and giving away for free to #TheAIConf attendees the results of their recent survey about the state of #AI https://t.co/kQDct3bgxE
