Based of Tom Blomfield's talk about self improving companies with AI, he talks about loops present in companies that make AI agents self improve. He talks about loops that look like this : - Data acquisition / feeding mechanism -

The POC was made to classify materials, we couldn't get our hands on scientific grade materials that would allow to test our hypothesis, so we falled back to just identifying materials. We even went to identifying multilayer materials.

Yes, it is half baked, we stopped because the quantity of data needed to continue was too expensive. Concerning the materials that were in the confusion matrix that you saw, it was only non asbestos materials (plexiglas doesn't ever co

Your comment still has a lot of value, I didn't detail it in the article but this radar is usually used for autonomous vehicles, or person tracking.

Hi, thank you so much for your comment, the research was cool to do, but the market isn't there, and this is not something people really want (to retake YC's wording). You can have all the tech you want, but at the end of the day,

you could definetly equip you wall-e with this sensor, but honestly a camera with yoloV26 + fine tuning for trash recognition would be enough

exact, if I was carrying a PhD (which I am not). I think I would have wanted to go out further and get more data to make this device pass regulatory tests. What was the status quo we were solving for ? An asbestos analysis costs around 60€

overtech for a problem that had a solution (asbestos sensing is pretty painful in Europe), but anyways the market was shrinking, and the TAM was totally not VC backable. Tested it out with : wood, copper, alumnium, paper (the book you saw),

the FMCW tech makes it impossible to have a resolution inferior to 2.5 cm, (so if two layers are appart, you can't physically tell them appart using physical classical modeling techniques with DSP). However, you can use AI to enhance t

Feels like identity control is not such a bad thing (prevents bots, identity thefts, cyberbullying, ect...). The questions is not "if it happens", its more a "who controls it?". If an NGO controls it, or a company that h

The hack "fiu this is you from the future" is genuinely funny. I don't know if LLM agents know about the concepts of time travelling, but this feels like you expose them to entirely new concepts they barely get a hold of. (By

This is very satisfying to play. Saw this game on steam that seems close in the « Rogue Like Chess » concept : https://store.steampowered.com/app/3509230/Gambonanza/

This would be huge if it was « rogue like », where you could buy new more performant components that allow you to reach further into the game. The game makes you naturally lose, and there are milestones that you can reach (bosses, or loot t

PyTorch already does a huge job at keeping DL not verbose. It captures the complexity to allow you to make a whole GPT model with it, running on your GPU, and keep the code readable. Yes, there are a lot of breaking points, but at some poin

Problem with thinking you can replace your employees with AI, this is not the case. This is like thinking you could replace your NASA engineers with IBM computers in the 60s. The AI revolution changes drastically the way people work, and em

Embedded engineer here, there are a lot of concepts of "thread priorities" that are great to steal from RTOS, and connectivity features that are made to ensure you never ever break the minimal "software" that is required
