Art, JavaScript, and Machine Learning with Amy Cheng at ML4ALL 2018

One talk that opened my mind to new ideas about where, how, and when to use machine learning was Amy Cheng’s @am3thyst talk on Machine Learning, Art, and JavaScript. I introduced her last year in my previous post, and am linking the talk below. Give it a watch, it’s worth the listen!

ML4ALL 2019 is on. CFP is still open, a little longer. It’s closing on the 18th. In addition we’ve got tickets available for early birds, but those will be gone soon too so pick one up while you can, it’s only a $200.00 bucks. You’ll basically be getting a ticket to conference that’ll be 10x the value of one of these big corporate conferences for $200 bucks, in the awesome city of Portland, and I can promise you it’ll be a conference you’ll get more out of then you currently think you will! Join us, it’s going to be a great time!

Eliminating Machine Bias

I introduced Mary Ann Brennan last year for ML4ALL and I really enjoyed the talk Mary gave and wanted to share it again with everyone.

The more I learn myself about machine bias, which really is just manifestation of people’s cognitive biases showing through in models because we’ve poorly identified we have a problem, the more frustrated I get with humanity’s inability to fix this problem. But to the rescue come those people who aim to find, identify, and fix these problems and eliminate the inherent cognitive biases by eliminating machine bias! Enter, Mary Ann Brennan and this talk she gave last year at ML4ALL. This year’s event is coming up, if you want to get deeper into, pr present on machine learning, learn ways to improve your use of, and eliminate biases like this then ML4ALL is going to be a great conference for you. Check it out, we have an open CFP, tickets are available (early bird still!)

An Inspiring VLOG of @noopkat’s trip to Portland for ML4ALL

Last year amid the various blogs, conversations, writing, and other things I was doing attempting to put together a cool video of my ML4ALL experience my friend Suz (AKA @noopkat) posted a VLOG that summarized it better than I could put together. So I went about doing other things I could be productive at – like watching this VLOG she did.
