Not so simple machines: Cracking the code for materials that can learn

Obtaining the gradient of what's known as the loss function is an essential step to establish the backpropagation algorithm developed by University of Michigan researchers to train a material. The ...

'I only gave learning algorithm': Godfather of AI admits nobody on Earth knows how AI actually thinks

There is a man who won the Nobel Prize in Physics for building the brain of artificial intelligence. And that man will tell you, openly, that he has no idea how it actually thinks. Geoffrey Hinton, ...

Generative AI needs better context - you can't talk about Large Language Models without reverse neural networks and backpropagation

The hype over Large Language Models (LLMs) has reached a fever pitch. But how much of the hype is justified? We can't answer that without some straight talk - and some definitions. Time for a ...
