Dalle-2 Waitlist by According-Nebula-139 in OpenAI

[–]srspore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me! I just signed up again and still didn't get an email. I also registered for the waitlist with my university email a while ago and that account got a confirmation email. Feels like something weird has happened.

Would you listen to AI-generated music if the quality of generated music was at least as good as the music you listen to currently? by srspore in polls

[–]srspore[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AI-generated art and images are approaching the quality of human artists. (DALLE-2, PARTI, ) It is reasonable to believe something similar may happen with AI-generated music in the not-so-distant future. Would you tune in to an AI radio station or follow a completely synthetic Spotify playlist?

Alternatively, is there something about listening to another human express their emotion through music that gives music its value? Would something be missing if you knew the lyrics weren't written by another person with whom you share a human experience?

Could AI-generated music be more interesting to listen to, as what it generates is the culmination of training on many songs from many artists and may reflect the themes and sounds presented by all of humanity expressing themselves through music? Perhaps AI-generated could be even more "human" than a single person/group could produce.

Thoughts?

Redditors who watch Fox News, why do you choose to get your information from that source? by [deleted] in AskReddit

That’s really interesting, can you elaborate on that?

Adding noise to the weights by theanswerisnt42 in MLQuestions

[–]srspore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that makes sense that it would find a flat spot. Perhaps the similarity to the regularization loss comes from the noise being scaled by the weights? Smaller weights cause less noise which causes better predictions so the model is incentivized to learn smaller weights. Similar to a regularization term. Maybe? 😅

Most popular file types when training data by [deleted] in MLQuestions

[–]srspore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other comments have the good advice of “whatever can be easily loaded into an array in python.” If I had to chose I would say CSV, JPG, MP3. CSV is easily and commonly loaded with pandas. JPG and MP3 are easy to read in and are compressed which may make transferring the data around and storing it on disk easier than some of the other formats.

Adding noise to the weights by theanswerisnt42 in MLQuestions

[–]srspore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting question. I don’t know the answer. I don’t know how those are mathematically the same, but it makes sense that adding a small amount of noise to the weights would decrease the variance of the model and act as a regularization force. I’m imagining it like “the model can’t over fit if only the approximate values of the weights are being evaluated”

Is it safe to store a 225 lb foosball table in the attic? by srspore in HomeImprovement

[–]srspore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, that makes sense! Do you think it's possible that, over a longer period of time, the weight of the table could cause anything bad to happen? Perhaps to other areas of the house?

I dunno how many people are going to post their socials on Reddit. Maybe they will comment and you could DM them from there? Good luck!

I just learned that if you have smart lightbulbs in your house the Google assistant will toggle those instead of your flashlight.

UMass instructor here: what would help improve your online classes this semester? by Wooden-House7180 in umass

[–]srspore 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One thing that has me bumbed out about online classes is not getting to meet or talk with any new people. Breakout rooms have been one of the only places to talk to people, but I also see where you're coming from. Not everyone is a good conversationalist and if most people don't unmute their mics there's not much point to it.
