Big Science and Embodied Learning at Hugging Face 🤗 with Thomas Wolf - #564

My guest this time is Charles Isbell, Jr., Professor and Senior Associate Dean in the College of Computing at Georgia Institute of Technology. Charles and I go back a bit… in fact he’s the first AI researcher I ever met. His research focus is what he calls “interactive artificial intelligence,” a discipline of AI focused specifically on the interactions between AIs and humans. We explore what this means and some of the interesting research results in this field. One part of this discussion I found particularly interesting was the intersection between his AI research and marketing and behavioral economics. Beyond his research, Charles is well known in the ML and AI worlds for his popular Machine Learning course sequence on Udacity, which he teaches with Brown University professor Michael Littman, and for the Online Master’s of Science in Computer Science program that he helped launch at Georgia Tech. We also spend quite a bit of time talking about what’s really missing in machine learning education and how to make it more accessible. The notes for this show can be found at twimlai.com/talk/4.

My guest this time is Xavier Amatriain. Xavier is a former researcher who went on to lead the machine learning recommendations team at Netflix, and is now the vice president of engineering at Quora, the Q&A site. We spend quite a bit of time digging into each of these experiences in the interview. Here are just a few of the things we cover in our discussion: Why Netflix invested $1 million in the Netflix Prize, but didn’t use the winning solution; What goes into engineering practical machine learning systems; The problem Xavier has with the deep learning hype; And, what the heck is a multi-arm bandit and how can it help us.

Siraj Raval is a machine learning hacker and teacher whose machine learning for hackers and fresh machine learning youtube series are fun, informative, high energy and practical ways to learn about a ton of machine learning and AI topics. I had a chance to catch up with Siraj in San Francisco recently, and we had a great discussion. Siraj has great advice on how to learn machine learning and build confidence as a machine learning developer, how to research and formulate projects, who to follow on Machine Learning twitter, and much more.

This Week in Machine Learning & AI brings you the week’s most interesting and important stories from the world of machine learning and artificial intelligence. We try something new this week with an interview of Clare Corthell, Founding Partner of Luminant Data, recorded live at the Wrangle Conference. We cover her background and what she’s been up to lately, the Open Source Data Science Masters project that she created, getting beyond the beginner’s plateau in machine learning and data science, hybrid AI, the top 3 lessons from her time as a consulting data scientist, and, a recurring topic both here on This Week in Machine Learning and AI and also at the conference: Algorithmic Ethics.
