Neural Networks Quotes

“The butterfly's wing beat of love can engender a mystical attraction in the neural meanders of our mind and generate emotional torments with a single stroke. ("I seek you")”
― Erik Pevernagie

“When we get business networks to function similarly to neural networks and mycelium networks, we'll have a better world.”
― Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr, CEO of Mayflower-Plymouth

“There must be a trick to the train of thought, a recursive formula. A group of neurons starts working automatically, sometimes without external impulse. It is a kind of iterative process with a growing pattern. It wanders about in the brain, and the way it happens must depend on the memory of similar patterns.”
― Stanislaw M. Ulam, Adventures of a Mathematician

“Information contains an almost mystical power of free flow and self replication, just as water seeks it's own level or sparks fly upward.”
― Neal Stephenson, The Diamond Age: Or, a Young Lady's Illustrated Primer

“God Bias:
When an algorithm or neural network inherits flaws of it's human creator.”
― Clyde DeSouza, Maya

“I’m not suggesting that neural networks are easy. You need to be an expert to make these things work. But that expertise serves you across a broader spectrum of applications. In a sense, all of the effort that previously went into feature design now goes into architecture design and loss function design and optimization scheme design. The manual labor has been raised to a higher level of abstraction.”
― Stefano Soatto

“The longer I work in AI, the more I think humans are just simple pattern matching machines with a small scratch pad for memory.”
― Peter Welinder

“Thanks to the 'universality of intelligence', reusable pre-trained models are set to rule the AI world.”
― Mukesh Borar, The Secrets of AI: a Math-Free Guide to Thinking Machines

“The universal nature of intelligence is the driving force behind most human interactions.”
― Mukesh Borar, The Secrets of AI: a Math-Free Guide to Thinking Machines

“Python is more than just a programming language. It is a tool that enables people to create innovative solutions and shape the future of technology.”
― Shree Shambav, Optimum – Python – Ultimate Guide for Beginners – Series 1: Unlock the Power of Python with Optimum's Comprehensive Beginner's Guide

“The computer can never be an artist, not until it doubts itself. Not until it is so full of shame and regret. And not until that fetid shame is sprinkled with glittering hope and inspiration. Then, when it is lost, desolate, and still hopeful - when it is utterly confused - only then can it call itself an artist. A machine can’t be that way. So, walk away from it. Do not protest it. That which you protest, you merely give strength - by pushing against it, you prop it up, you stop it from falling over. Walk away, let it collapse under the weight of its own hubris. Let it lie in ruin - unseen, unheard, unneeded. Let it rot unattended, and maybe then can it truly understand what it means to be an artist.”
― C. Sean McGee, eN

“You don’t train a neural network. You let it struggle, fail, adapt, and repeat—until its failures look like intelligence.”
― Emmimal P. Alexander, NEURAL NETWORKS AND DEEP LEARNING WITH PYTHON A PRACTICAL APPROACH

“As long as you allow mediocrity to be the height of your enthusiasm, as long as you allow it to be the very peak of your potential, to be the voice of your culture, then, yes, the machine will replace you.”
― C. Sean McGee, eN

“The 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis came well before the current age of AI, yet computers were in use and technology played a critical role in the form of U-2 spy plane photos that showed Soviet missile installations in Cuba. Protocols and standard operating procedures were in place, ... Still, it was human judgment as displayed in Khrushchev's letter to Kennedy and Kennedy's decision to remove U.S. missiles from Turkey and Italy that defused the crisis. ... human judgment, not computers and processes, avoided nuclear war. It's instructive that the one case, albeit fictional, in which nuclear war resulted was [the movie] "Fail Safe," where a computer malfunction had the last word and attempts at human intervention by the president and the commander's wife failed due to strict adherence to protocols. ... Delegation of attack decisions to AI, however sophisticated, greatly increases the risk of nuclear war.”
