And now we have been blessed with VR chat more than 20 years later.

Uuh, AI research has nothing to do with coding all nighters. This is a common misconception among software engineers. It is more a science, and less an engineering problem. It is more about running experiments than it is writing fancy algorithms.

You are bound by the amount of data and computational resources you have at your disposal. Neither are tied to man hours. You can stay up all night for days waiting for your model to train, and it will do you no good.

This would be great if only he was not at Facebook.

Is the goal of the AI model to predict crime rates in a hypothetical world where everyone has equal rates of lead exposure?

What a terrible example. There are many other features being omitted that would predict crime rates. If anything, this is an example of enforcing your own bias on the model by not including all relevant features.

Why is it that a lot of startups seem to be betting the farm, so to speak, on "machine learning" as their core value

Because it is the current overhyped thing, and there are enough dumb investors to fund it.

My brain.

You will overfit an NN trained on only 1000 examples.

Also a simple train/test split will tell you that. But the author failed to take any time to learn the basics before spewing out this drivel.

McDonal's for someone visiting Europe makes no sense at all.

McDonalds is better and cheaper than a lot of the overpriced, crappy food in Europe.

It's a fake image of a medieval utopia that never existed even in fairy tales.

That's quite a high horse you rode in on.
