And the answer is resoundingly no.'</i> ####Understanding doesn't come from ingesting yottabytes bytes of data in any form - text, images, audio, video, or anything else - meaning doesn't reside in data. Meaning does not also reside in some elaborate ontology. And understanding doesn't come from achieving goals by maximizing rewards. ####For the type of intelligence that we seem to want - eg understand and use language like a two-year-old would, even - a suitably-architected body+brain seems like a pre-requisite, because it would allow the agent to experience the environment on its own terms, building up meaning/understanding from within, generating intelligent behavior. <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###Cool, interactive map (thanks to Justine Huang for the link): https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/11/03/us/elections/forecast-uncounted-votes-president.html <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###CA passed Prop 24 :) https://www.businessinsider.com/prop-24-privacy-california-data-tracking-facebook-google-2020-11 <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###Please do attend this one [and, note their play on words - 'showcais' :)]: <br><img style="width:70%" src="pics/CAIS_Fall2020.png"> <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###LOTS of free DM/ML books (download them all!): https://www.learndatasci.com/free-data-science-books/ <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###A **feast** of courses+videos, related to ML, etc: https://github.com/kmario23/deep-learning-drizzle <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###k-means, with centroid movement viz: https://bytes.usc.edu/~saty/tools/xem/run.html?x=kmeans <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###A hot-off-the-press offering from Google: https://www.marktechpost.com/2020/11/05/google-introduces-document-ai-docai-platform-for-automated-document-processing/ <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###Data labeling: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/human-power-behind-ai-machine-112000543.html <div style="height:1px;border:1px solid #BBBBBB;"/> ###Knosis.ai: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RJ_YPh-1t8 - glimpses of how ML is **FUELED** by data!!
