Notes from the register.
Applied AI, governance, and whatever I have been reading closely. 20 posts, oldest 2023.
Innovative Solutions Offered by Novareck AI
Tailored machine learning, automated data pipelines and industry-specific AI, plus the collaboration model that makes any of it stick after the consultants leave.
Exploring Innovative AI and Data Science Services
What a genuine AI and data science partner actually does, from problem identification through to knowledge transfer, and how to scope a first engagement without overcommitting.
Building Expertise in Web Development
Advanced web development is not more syntax, it is scalable architecture, testing discipline and knowing where AI genuinely belongs. A practical roadmap and the seven stages of a real project.
Mastering Essential Professional Skills for Career Growth
Technical expertise is the foundation. The skills that build the rest of the tower are communication, judgement and adaptability. Ten to focus on, and how to actually practise them.
Solutions for Seamless Digital Transformation
The four pillars that hold a transformation up, the technologies that actually matter, and the five failure modes that sink most programmes before they deliver anything.
Smarter, Faster, Creative: The AI Breakthroughs Defining 2024
Gemini 2.0, Project Astra and Sora Turbo reset the benchmarks for speed, creativity and interactivity. A walk through what actually changed and why the architecture matters.
GPT-4 on the Edge: FAR AI''s Cyber Quest and the Battle for API Fortification
FAR AI probed GPT-4's fine-tuning, function calling and retrieval APIs and found the safety training could be undone. Why content filters are not a security control.
Unveiling the Future of Privacy in Machine Learning: The RMIA Breakthrough
Membership inference is how you measure what a trained model leaks about its training data. RMIA makes that measurement cheap enough to actually run.
What is Lean Six Sigma?
Delay, defects and deviation quietly undermine most operations. Lean Six Sigma is the methodology built to attack all three, and you do not need a belt to start.
EDICT: Putting the Art in Artificial Intelligence
Salesforce's EDICT inverts the diffusion process to find the exact noise that regenerates your original image, so editing a prompt changes only what you asked to change.
DragGAN: Limitless Possibilities in Controllable Image Synthesis
Click a handle point, click a target, and the image obeys. DragGAN combines motion supervision with point tracking to make GAN output genuinely controllable.
Book Giveaway - An Industrial Perspective on AI and ML
An archived post from a 2023 giveaway of my book, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning - An Industrial Perspective.
Nvidia Canvas: Painting With AI Has Never Been More Fun
GANs, image segmentation and style transfer combined into a tool where rough strokes become detailed landscapes. What is under the hood, and where it falls short.
MemFace: Bringing Talking Faces to Life
Audio-to-video portrait generation runs into a one-to-many mapping problem. MemFace solves it with two kinds of memory, one semantic and one pixel-level.
NVIDIA Maxine: All Eyes on This
A GPU platform that rebuilds video calls with AI, from bandwidth reduction to eye contact correction. The features, the use cases, and the reasons it is not for everyone.
VALL-E: The AI Model That Will Blow Your Mind (and Ears)
Three seconds of audio is enough. Microsoft's VALL-E treats text-to-speech as an in-context learning problem, and the results are close to indistinguishable from the real speaker.
EmailTriager: The AI Assistant for Efficient Email Management
An assistant that drafts your replies in the background, so the inbox you open has already been triaged. Six use cases and why the pattern stuck.
Machine Learning to Predict the Electronic Band Structure of Materials
ARPES experiments are slow and expensive. A probabilistic model that fits band mapping data, tolerates noise and encodes imperfect physical knowledge changes the economics.
Google AI's LaMDA vs OpenAI's ChatGPT
Two language systems built for different jobs. A side-by-side on training method, customisation, integration, cost and the ethical questions neither one escapes.
Top AI Trends of 2022
DALL-E 2, ChatGPT, Google's Learning to Prompt and the metaverse. A snapshot of the year generative AI stopped being a research curiosity.
