There is a lot of money from Silicon Valley rushing into ABA treatment and having seen the results I can't help but think we do better. Current systems of ABA rely on billing the therapy to insurance and thus most of these ABA "mi

We may have the tools to manage it, but we are losing the ability to understand it. AI writing software will be a exponential explosion in software complexity. AI would very well create its own programming language to be more efficient for

Copyright laws do not support your argument. There have been many cases in music where the offending song was forced to pay because it was "close enough" to the curve but not touching it.

Of course there is fair use, etc etc. But modern copyright was a reaction to the printing press so that people were motivated to still create content in the face of new technology. If current copyright laws do not protect people from creati

Yes, this makes it very difficult to apply ML and RL in non-simulated scenarios. With simulated scenarios you can just replay and "sweep" across hyperparameters to find the best one. In a realworld scenario with limited informatio

Also, just a random thing that I thought of playing around with it is a few days ago a guy posted about an AI quiz generator for education. If you ever need to pivot, it seems like this would do reasonably well in the education space also.
