neural networks

redpill me on neural networks

what is a neural network? how do I make one? why would I want one? what can you use them for?

inb4 mentishit think it's the perfect occasion to spam his shitty random sentence generator.

Every occasion is perfect occasion to learn about Ghost Mind Algorithm.

I guess you could call it a reliable way to implement fuzzy logic
fuzzy in that while there isn't any simple rules for telling between a picture of a cat and a dog, with a good set of examples you get a fuzzy predictor of cat v dog pictures

>>4
would it say like "58% sure this is a dog" instead of "this is a dog"?

>>5
Did you just assume its species? Its could be 58% dog and 40% cat, with bear heritage, identifying as a bear.

but we're all just americans amirite

Basically, neural network is a composition of addition and multiplication operation, plus a special algorithm that finds proper multipliers, so that the composition begins to approximate some specific function. For example, you can train neural network to approximate sin or log functions.

"a*w1 + b*w2 + c*w3" is a neural network. The complexity arises when a, b and c are neural networks too. And you have to include several layers, because single layer can't approximate non-liner functions.

>>8
Oh, the training algorithm tries to pick proper w1, w2 and w3. Basically, the training algorithm is the hardest part of neural network theory, specially if neural network is self referencing.

neural networks will be proven to be a meme once its unpredictable nonlinearity starts running over and killing people

>>10
Neural networks are harmless, as long as they are not a part of self preserving system with some goals.

good use of neural networks https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/pa9nvv/the-blowjob-paper-scientists-processed-109-hours-of-oral-sex-to-develop-an-ai-that-sucks-dick-autoblow

>>12
So women are the first real victims of AI?

>>5
58% is a bit misleading, since 50/50 is 0% sure of it being a dog
That would really be more like +8% or +16% depending on scale (-50 to +50) or (-100 to +100)

redirect male sexual desires
less rapes and molestations
rapists turn to sex robots, avoiding jail
feminists screech about it: WE NEED MORE RAPISTS

>>15
who are you quoting?

>>16
Its not my job to educate you, fascist.
