A lot of people, at least in the pre-"vibe coding era," lament that they can't program because they're "not math people." I wasn't either. Here's how I got started building machine learning models in ...

As AI churns out mathematical proofs, a DeepMind study raises a bigger question: What do we lose when we focus only on the ...

How much math knowledge do you need for machine learning and deep learning? Some people say not much. Others say a lot. Both are correct, depending on what you want to achieve. There are plenty of ...

Despite being built by calculus, linear algebra, and an army of statisticians around the world, neural networks have trouble understanding math. Or at least, they have trouble understanding how ...

A good conjecture has something like a magnetic pull for the mind of a mathematician. At its best, a mathematical conjecture states something extremely profound in an extremely precise and succinct ...

Then to optimize over that linear model they’ll show you gradient descent, and again you’ll note, “Well, that’s just calculus!” Support vector machines? Merely convex optimization. Naive Bayes? Just ...

This photo taken on June 7, 2017 shows media filming an artificial intelligence machine named AI-MATHS in Chengdu, in China's southwest Sichuan province. The AI machine took the math portion of ...

When you’ve been fighting black-hat hackers for decades, you learn a thing or two about them. Obviously, they are bad, and they like to play with code. But most importantly, they’re continually ...
