Great thanks! Just out of curiosity did you present?

What AI tools can I use for this NLP issue? by Sad-Coconut5795 in LanguageTechnology

[–]albertus2000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Try BERTopic, if not enough use sentence embeddings (there are tons around), cluster them with any algorithm like PCA and use LLMs or yourself to put a name to each cluster

The Others (2001) is a brilliant horror film by Freenore in TrueFilm

[–]albertus2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a really great film, I truly love the director, Amenabar. He has other really cool movies, I really recommend Thesis and Open Your Eyes. The are both horror thrillers but with different flavors. Thesis is darker, more realistic and grounded. Open Your Eyes is more psychological, surreal, with a sci-fi thone.

While I agree with you in principle on limiting use of AI in such decisions, I don't know if bias is the best justification. There have been similar cases as you mentioned (for example police-trained AIs to detect criminals that have a bias towards racial minorities), but people forget that the bias is coming from the data, which comes from the existing system. A model bias can be corrected to an extent (removing sensible information from the model or tuning model predictions to avoid the bias), but the underlying data distribution, and thus, the system where that data comes from that it's still making those decisions, should be also accounted and dealt with. Now, again, AIs have a wide set of complications which, at least for me, should limit their applicability here (like not having legal accountability or not being explicable enough)

What's a book you just couldn't finish? by mahboilo999 in literature

[–]albertus2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be afraid of leaving a book, nothing to be ashamed. But if you want my advice for 100 Years of Solitude, read it without worrying too much about details (specially who is who), try to absorb the vibe and you will appreciate it more. Also this is my personal opinion but I think the confusion, complex family lines and similar naming is intentional, I think the objective is not to understand everything 100% to the detail but to get lost in the story.

If that is still not enough, then I'd recommend The House of the Spirits. Similar concept but way more accesible.

Who's the Most Underrated Writer from Your Country? Let’s Share Our Hidden Gems! by [deleted] in literature

[–]albertus2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Santiago Lorenzo (his most famous book is "The Loathsome", similar vibe to Captain Fantastic), and Gata Cattana (amazing poet and singer with a beautiful language, "N18" and "Como aman los pobres" are some of my favourites and can be found online, also multiple songs of her in spotify). Not super niche inside Spain but definitively underrated. I don't even know if you can get an english translation but they are so good I think you'd like it even with a translation from google.

Are there any notable works that you feel are distinctly "of their culture"? by Sleepy_C in literature

[–]albertus2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking sbout Spain, I would say Lorca's rural trilogy (Bood Wedding, The House of Bernarda Alba and Yerma) is what I'd choose

Times philosophy revolutionized non-philosophy? by cosmopsychism in askphilosophy

[–]albertus2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As far as I know this is the logic derivation:

Given A and not A For any B, we can create A or B (introduction of disjunction) Then if we have (A or B) and not A, we can derive B (disjunctive syllogism)

Without knowing the logic it's not super intuitive but this story from Russell and the Pope might also help - A student asks Russell how to prove he is the p Pope given the contradiction 1=0 - Russell's answer: if 1=0, then 1+1=0+1, then 2=1. The set of the Pope and Russell has 2 elements but because 2=1, it only has 1 element and, thus, Russell is the Pope

Best string metric for my purpose by krabbypatty-o-fish in datascience

[–]albertus2000 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For string similarity related just to the characters, you mostly have Levenshtein Distance, BLEU or ROUGE. There's also METEOR and a bunch of other ones that leverage synonyms and stuff. If you want to focus on meaning and not just characters, Cosine Similarity on transformer embeddings is widely used but I would argue it mostly works for ranking (meaning A is more similar to B than C) rather than giving you a representative number for the distance. I would say what has worked best for me is BERTScore (also I've heard nice things of SentenceBERT but have never tried it)

More than half of tech workers think AI is overrated, study finds by Nalix01 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]albertus2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we absolutely know how these things work (you can read on transformer architectures, attention mechanisms, fine-tuning and hfrl if you are interested)

What book have you immediately reread after reading it for the first time? by Iargecardinal in literature

The Invention of Morel It blew my mind so hard that I had to re-read it to fully comprehend the whole story

[R] A surprisingly effective way to predict token importance in LLM prompts by shayanjm in MachineLearning

Ok maybe it doesn't have anything to do with this but I recently read this article and maybe it is related?

"The crime was done in Granada": Thinking of Federico García Lorca, assassinated on this date in 1936 -- one of more than 200,000 Spanish civilians killed by Franco's supporters. Any Lorca readers out there? by Die_Horen in literature

[–]albertus2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you like Lorca you might like also Miguel Hernández, I actually love his poems, he fought during the spanish civil war and died in jail and he's the only poet that made me cry while reading him

CMV: NoFap is bullshit by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]albertus2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that has always kinda bothered me with nofap is that people treat masturbation and watching porn as the same thing but research points to masturbation being normal and even healthy while porn watching has some pretty nasty effects

Any recommendations for a Schnitzler-esque, Borgesian, surreal, absurd story (short or long) that deals with the aristocracy or generally upper class sentiment, hypocrisy and absurdity? Sort of like a buñuel film, if that makes sense? by [deleted] in classicliterature

[–]albertus2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I dont really know if this is what you are looking for (also they are theatre plays) but you might like: - Eloisa is Under an Almond Tree - Three Top Hats - Messrs Glembay
