How to Build a Package Using Syciuld Learn?

i try to scratch my own itch, and if other people like it, that's fine. But i'm only interested in scratching my own itch. If too many feature requests come in, i politely just say no or i ask them to fork itn now. And the really cool thing about sychit learn is they have a testing client that you can go ahead and use. Ad, so if you build packages this way, it is relatively easy. That's the main advice for people who want t maybe do open sore stuff.

// Abstract
Text embeddings are very popular, but there are plenty of reasons to be concerned about their applications. There's algorithmic fairness, compute requirements, as well as issues with the datasets that they're typically trained on.
In this session, Vincent gives an overview of some of these properties while also talking about an underappreciated use-case for the embeddings: labeling!

// Bio
Vincent D. Warmerdam is a senior data professional who has worked as an engineer, researcher, team lead, and educator in the past. He's especially interested in understanding algorithmic systems so that one can prevent failure. As such, he has a preference for simpler solutions that scale, as opposed to the latest and greatest from the hype cycle. He currently works as a Research Advocate at Rasa, where he collaborates with the research team to explain and understand conversational systems better.

Outside of Rasa, Vincent is also well known for his open-source projects (scikit-lego, human-learn, doubtlab, and more), collaborations with open source projects like spaCy, his blog over at koaning.io, and his calm code educational project.
