I think the idea is not to replace learning the theory or math, but rather to just postpone it. Learning the practical aspects of an engineering discipline can provide the necessary motivation to study the theory/math, and this is the

Depends on what you mean by faster. Do you mean "time to solution" or "time to inference"? I think there are also more factors to take into consideration when considering the merit of the method e.g. performance, robustn

I think the levels (high, low etc.) are relevant for the Deep RL algorithm, not the environment. The lower level version of OpenAI Gym canned environments would be custom Gym environments. I don't see much reason to go any lower than t

Maybe this would help you differentiate: GPT-3, DALL-E 2 etc. uses transformers, while AlphaGo, OpenAI Five etc. uses Deep Reinforcement Learning. They are not mutually exclusive, but just different things.

Good catch. I can imagine that this is annoying. I have put it in my todo. I hope you enjoy the course over the weekend.

Thanks. I learned it from an Udemy course [0]. Took just a couple of weeks to pick up. Regarding overlays, Sketchbook supports the idea of layers. I simply put different elements in the illustration in different layers. Sketchbook gives me

My experience matches yours. Recently, I was trying to solve an optimization problem using Deep RL. As usual, I had to run many experiments over several days using various tricks and hyperparameters. Finally, it turned out something related

I am sorry about that. Unfortunately, the same thing happens in Firefox when the tracking protection is set to "strict". This is apparently happening after Teachable updated their video player. Earlier, they used Wistia. Now they

I am glad you like it. The coding exercises don't require a GPU. Thankfully, most RL problems (and certainly the ones used in the course) require small neural nets which can be trained in reasonable time using a CPU.

In my opinion, the best problem to solve are your own problems - both emotional and material.

You are right. Discovery, fraud protection and many other functions need to be there either way. When I say cost reduction, I mean getting rid of any additional premiums which eBay (or any corporation for that matter) levies because of thei

A lot of valid points here, but ultimately very short sighted. Firstly, the author does not mention many of the highly plausible use cases for trustless and permissionless services such as replacing rent seeking P2P marketplaces like eBay (

If you take a look at the website more closely, you will find that Packt books are rarely on the top. Your comment is actually well reflected in the ranking. You had a problem with the Dusty Phillips book ranking on top of Powerful Python.

I love it, especially how you summarized the key points in one or two sentences instead of going into lengthy stories. It seems the key strategies can be listed as follows: 1. Great video which demonstrates a good knowledge of the community
