Hey!

You receive this newsletter because you subscribed to receive AI and machine learning updates on the companion websites of Andriy Burkov’s two books: The Hundred-Page Machine Learning Book and Machine Learning Engineering.

There are about 15,000 subscribers now, so we, True Positive Inc., the company behind Andriy Burkov’s publishing initiatives, decided to start sending weekly updates. Please don’t hesitate to send us your feedback at hello@truepositive.ca.

In this issue: GPT-3 is shockingly good, Sony has filed a patent for creating personalized music, top ten free AI courses from top universities, a GAN than generates PAC-MAN, scientific fact-checking using language models, a state-of-the-art transfer learning for computer vision, and more.

  • OpenAI's new language generator GPT-3 is shockingly good—and completely mindless (it generates programming code from text, and completes essays)

  • Sony has filed a patent for creating personalized gaming music using machine learning

  • Top ten free artificial intelligence courses from Harvard, MIT, and Stanford

  • GameGAN, a generative adversarial network trained on 50,000 PAC-MAN episodes, produces a fully functional game without an underlying game engine

  • BLEURT is a new evaluation metric for natural language generation models that is a reliable substitute for human evaluation

  • Nitpicking machine learning technical debt

  • BigTransfer: state-of-the-art transfer learning for computer vision

  • InstColorization, an implementation of the colorization model and data pipelines (code, paper)

  • A new AI system developed by MIT researchers has a dramatically reduced carbon footprint (paper)

  • Eye-catching advances in some AI fields are not real

  • Scientific fact-checking using AI language models: COVID-19 research and beyond
