Making a racist AI without really trying (2017)
A cautionary tutorial. Let's make a sentiment classifier!¶Sentiment analysis is a very frequently-implemented task in NLP, and it's no surprise. Recognizing whether people are expressing positi
Text Embedding Models Contain Bias
As Machine Learning practitioners, when faced with a task, we usually select or train a model primarily based on how well it performs on that task. For example, say we're building a system to classify whether a movie review is positive or negative. We take 5 different models and see how well each performs this task:

Letting neural networks be weird
Machine learning algorithms are not like other computer programs. In the usual sort of programming, a human programmer tells the computer exactly what to do. In machine learning, the human programmer merely gives the algorithm the problem to be solved, and through trial-and-error the algorithm has to figure out how to…
Making floating point math highly efficient for AI hardware
In recent years, compute-intensive artificial intelligence tasks have prompted creation of a wide variety of custom hardware to run these powerful new systems efficiently. Deep learning models, suc…
Self driving cars and beyond
The story of technology is not unlike what often happens in dramatic stories and plays, where a “deus ex machina” or character drops down magically from the skies onto our world stage. But in reality, technology never comes so suddenly, or in such an isolated manner: There’s an entire ecosystem that grows up around…
Do neural networks dream of electric sheep?
If you’ve been on the internet today, you’ve probably interacted with a neural network. They’re a type of machine learning algorithm that’s used for everything from language translation to finance modeling. One of their specialties is image recognition. Several companies - including Google, Microsoft, IBM, and…
