I’ve always wondered as to what happens in the ‘backend’ of the training process in Neural Networks. The training process is essentially the ‘meat’ of the model; without efficient and effective training the model will not be able to accurately predict/classify or accomplish a task with newly unseen data. Neural Networks have always been held as a very useful system in prediction analysis, recommendation engines, modeling and a lot more; it is because has the ability to extract […]

I hope your 2025 is off to a great start! To kick off the year, I’ve finally been able to complete the draft and second part of this AI Research Highlights of 2024 article. It covers a variety of relevant topics, from mixture-of-experts models to new LLM scaling laws for precision. Note that this article is Part Two in this series, focusing on the second half of 2024 from July through December. You can find Part One, covering […]

Every classical computer reduces the world to 0s and 1s. That binary framework has carried us from calculators to supercomputers, but some problems demand checking through 2n possibilities, a task that outpaces even the best machines. Now, what if information could exist in many states at once? That what if turned into a new model called quantum computation. Keep reading to break with binaries and get an overview of quantum computing basics. By the end of this tutorial, […]

As some of you know, I keep a running list of research papers I (want to) read and reference. About six months ago, I shared my 2024 list, which many readers found useful. So, I was thinking about doing this again. However, this time, I am incorporating that one piece of feedback kept coming up: “Can you organize the papers by topic instead of date?” The categories I came up with are: Reasoning Models – 1a. Training Reasoning […]

You may have heard of people hooking up chatbots to controls that do real things. The controls might run internet searches, run commands to open and read documents and spreadsheets, or even edit or delete entire databases. Whether this sounds like a good idea depends in part on how bad it is if the chatbot does something destructive, and how destructive you’ve allowed it to be. That’s why running a single in-house company store is a good test […]
