That kind of blind spot is pretty brilliant but more of a technical hack from a Go perspective. Shin is world #1 and won “the normal way”, i.e. playing good moves

It is the same. If you are not a pro punishing deviations is quite difficult (but can occasionally be easy like I'm sure it can be in chess with hanging pieces). The most obvious difficult punish example is just finding unintuitive way

You can think of joseki as “local opening”. Like, in a vacuum, this is known by study / AI to be an even result for black and white. It’s just like a chess opening, there’s no calculation up to a certain point. And it doesn’t exist in

Same, I take the wiggle all the time and definitely bully cars into letting me keep going :/

Yeah, this is probably better for a game like Go where evaluating raw point differentials is a common thing that professionals (and even strong amateurs) do.

As a Go player myself, I agree that Go-wise this result isn't impressive. But isn't the point that it's an "attack" on the AI? Like for password leaks, failed hash functions, etc, we don't care that it's 1

I strongly agree, in addition statements like "Before social media advertising would have to hitch a ride with some content produced for something else. Billboards, newspapers, television shows, and magazines all tried to provide a use

Wait, I see them everywhere in SF and in completely random places too…

Wait, I think you’re misunderstanding a bit. The culture of professionalism ALREADY inherently represses non-straight people (and allows straight people privilege to be who they want). For example, men suits women dresses. There is no cultu

I don’t understand the logic here. Yes, of course a wealthy person will be able to pay for procedures and avoid going broke. Isn’t this universally true? Perhaps you meant the US is poorly designed for poor people, which is not something y

Really? He’s a researcher at Google Brain; it’s not like his words have no weight.

Please don’t feel like this article wasn’t useful to some people though even with bias; as a new entrant to the industry I liked reading it!

This is absolutely not cheating; every hand designed algorithm can access and compare everything in the array! The real point of what they’re saying in your italicized quote is actually that giving the net full access hinders efficiency, so

Unfortunately this may prove to be way more effective than “doing it out of kindness” like we do.

While that's vacuously true on account of the fact that being rich is fundamentally good no matter where you are, I'd argue that China is even better to live in if you're rich.

I think the idea is that "calling predict and tuning on a model with the test set" is the "overfitting". It's not actual overfitting like we know in ML; it's as if the researcher is performing "descent&quo

Good for the consumer.

That seems like a valid reason; for me, it seems that the competitive nature of chess and its pre-existing establishment in society as a measure of intellect determines its popularity.

This is incredibly elitist.

It may be my lack of knowledge about optics, but from an ML perspective this seems rather mundane if not useless. Model training involves high levels of parallelism on a large scale for difficult tasks, something I can’t see these optical c

And that’s great if that’s what you want. OP was just saying that free, internal lunch promotes team bonding for those who do desire it.

It’s a completely different issue though; there’s already a lot of built up politics regarding Tibet in China.

That's because you value your power over your peace of mind, which is fine and true for most people. I think they just meant in terms of a purely happiness based value system.

Couldn't this simply exacerbate the very problem of echo chambers in social media?

Accessibility to non-programmers though as a good and inspiring learning tool? Or is that not an intended purpose?
