If you don&amp;#x27;t want to read a bunch of papers this video also has a good discussion of that last paper, describing how a memory system based on the NTM has been applied to reinforcement learning to achieve very impressive results that seem to me to be a very significant step towards human-like general purpose…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1605.06065/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

I think the SOTA is probably [2], which came out of DeepMind. There&amp;#x27;s still a way to go before it matches ResNet performance on ImageNet (or even human performance on any real task) though.

While he may be correct that, for now, many small firms should apply linear regression rather than deep learning to their limited datasets, he is wrong in his prediction of an AI bust. If it happens, it will not be for the reasons he cites. He is skeptical that deep learning and other forms of advanced AI 1) will be applicable to smaller and smaller datasets, and that 2) they will become easier to use. And yet some great research is being done that will prove him wrong on his first…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1605.06065/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

Kind of a rare thing these days. Btw, I&amp;#x27;m interested to hear how well training with large one-hot encoded vectors scales. A paper someone pointed me to recently on HN suggested that it doesn&amp;#x27;t scale very well: One-shot Learning with Memory-Augmented Neural Networks [https://arxiv.org/abs/1605.06065]&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1605.06065/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

It&amp;#x27;s understandable, given that it&amp;#x27;s outdated by maybe six months, iff you&amp;#x27;re willing to go with preprints. https://arxiv.org/abs/1605.06065 A hobbyist looking for something plug-and-play will still generally want lots of data; the cutting edge is not exactly &amp;quot;curl|bash&amp;quot;-able. But the papers coming out this year have been dispatching what I thought would be entire areas of study in a dozen pages, one after another after another. Not only do I think it&amp;#x27;s a &amp;quot;when&amp;quot; and not an &amp;quot;if&amp;quot;, I think the timelines people throw around date to &amp;quot;ancient&amp;quot;…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1605.06065/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

I&amp;#x27;m not sure what this means or how the abstractions are meaningless? From Gabor filters to concepts like &amp;quot;dog&amp;quot;, the abstractions are quite meaningful (in that they function well), even if not to us. &amp;gt; They are not. Hundreds of man years worth of engineering time go into each of those systems, and none of those systems generalizes to anything other than the task it was created for. That&amp;#x27;s nothing like human intelligence. This isn&amp;#x27;t strictly true if we look at the ability to generalize as a sliding scale.

Here are 2 good papers--one from last year, one very recent--that might change your mind. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1506.05869.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/1605.06065v1.pdf Over the past 10 years (deep learning got going in ~2006, really), the state of the art has improved at an exponential rate, and that&amp;#x27;s not slowing down. There are plenty of reasons to be bullish. Or at least, now seems like a bad time to leave the field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1605.06065/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
