The output of a machine learning algorithm is code that no one was clever enough to write. In light of Kernighan's law, that should give you pause.

NEXP is nondeterministic exponential time, right? In that case we know that P /= EXPTIME by the time hierarchy theorem and EXPTIME is contained in NEXP. We also have a direct result that NP /= NEXP (reference given in https:&#x

Probably in 2030 we're going to see a similar but smaller hit to those sorts of schools. What effect that has is anyone's guess right now.

This is nice to have. The classic reference on online learning is "Prediction, Learning and Games" but it's not ML focused and it predates pretty much everything on online convex optimization. I'm looking forward to se
