Artificial Intelligence (AI) Newsletter by Towards AIΒ #16

If you have trouble reading this email, see it on a webΒ browser.

Hey everyone. We hope you are well. In this issue, we dive into an exciting cheat sheet outlining key machine learning concepts, the history of artificial intelligence (AI), can neural networks think?, the evolution of creating art from text, and data science job marketΒ trends.

This issue is brought to you thanks to TolokaΒ AI:

Toloka App Service is a premium-grade turnkey solution for unsupervised data labeling. When you choose Toloka App Services, we take care of everythingβ€Šβ€”β€Šfrom setting up your project to quality control. Our solution is ideal for classification of images, videos, webpages, and text, as well as information extraction from websites and object selection. LearnΒ more

You have probably noticed that we have changed the format of the newsletter a bit. We would love to obtain your feedback on whether you like this new format or not and any feedback you have. So please feel free to drop us a note in any case. We’d love to hear fromΒ you.

All right, so let’s get toΒ it.

Machine Learning Cheat Sheet: Google Software Engineer Frank Dai, and many other contributors have compiled a very technical, thorough, and significant machine learning cheat sheet that contains many classical machine learning equations and diagrams. It is instrumental, as it includes a lot of key concepts of ML, along with serving as an asset for machine learning job interviews.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Origin: Back in 1955, a group of researchers launched the AI Project, led by John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Nathaniel Rochester, Claude Shannon, Allen Newell, Herbert Simon, William Kautz and many other prominent scientists. The project was originally called β€œA Proposal for the Darthmouth Summer Research Project on Artificial Intelligence,” and was published on August 31 of the same yearβ€Šβ€”β€Šan exciting piece of technological history to remember.

Can Neural Networks Think?: Recently, a group of DeepMind scientists led by Andrea Banino, Jan Balaguer, and Charles Blundell published a scientific paper called β€œPonderNet: Learning to Ponder,” that talks about a new algorithm that lets neural networks β€œponder” or β€œthink for a while” before making decisions on complex tasksβ€Šβ€”β€Šanalogous to how both humans and computers think.

Creating Art from Text: You may already be familiar with the remarkable project by Open AI, called DALL-E, which showcases how a neural network can generate images from text. But, how about art? Charlie Snell, an undergrad researcher at Berkeley AI, recently published a blog on β€œAlien Dreams: An Emerging Art Scene,” which talks in-depth about how art can be created with different types of models, such as CLIP, DALL-E, VQ-Gan, StyleGAN, etc.β€Šβ€”β€Šgiving light to the milestones in the evolution of CLIP-based generative art.

Data Science Job Market Trends: We have updated our work on data science job market trends, where we take a deep dive and showcase the most crucial skills needed nowadays to land a data role in 2021 based on over 3000 data-related jobs postings. If there’s anything that you’d like to see, we’d love your feedback.

We are super thankful for your time. If you enjoy the newsletter? Please consider subscribing if you haven’t yet or share it with your friends and colleagues. It is genuinely appreciated.

Thank you for reading! Until nextΒ time,

Saray and TowardsΒ AI
