Episode notes
AI as Data Transformation
- AI and machine learning models, at their core, transform data.
- These models differ from regular software functions because their logic isn't explicitly programmed but learned from data.
Training AI Models
- AI models have a 'missing piece' architecture and are trained using algorithms with numerous parameters.
- Training involves optimizing parameters to minimize error through an iterative trial-and-error process.
Supervised Learning Still Dominant
- Supervised learning, using labeled examples for training, remains dominant in AI.
- Despite newer approaches, supervised learning models likely constitute 95% of real-world applications.
