A cartoon-style illustration of a brain and a computer having a conversation. The brain has eyes and a mouth, and is animated to look like it's talking. It says, 'Have you heard about this comp neuro thing happening at Imperial College?'. The computer has a friendly face on its screen and is replying, 'Yeah it's going to be pretty hot'.

This is insane. Republicans have inserted language into the budget reconciliation bill that would ban states from regulating AI in any capacity for 10 years.

Simplified derivations for high-dimensional convex learning problems Statistical physics provides tools for analyzing high-dimensional problems in machine learning and theoretical neuroscience. These calculations, particularly those using the replica method, often invo...

(1/5) Fun fact: Several classic results in the stat. mech. of learning can be derived in a couple lines of simple algebra!

In this paper with Haim Sompolinsky, we simplify and unify derivations for high-dimensional convex learning problems using a bipartite cavity method.
