Experiential AI is proposed as a new research agenda in which artists and scientists come together to dispel the mystery of algorithms and make their mechanisms vividly apparent. It addresses the challenge of finding novel ways of opening up the field of artificial intelligence to greater transparency and collaboration between human and machine. The hypothesis is that art can mediate between computer code and human comprehension to overcome the limitations of explanations in and for AI systems. Artists can make the boundaries of systems visible and offer novel ways to make the reasoning of AI transparent and decipherable. Beyond this, artistic practice can explore new configurations of humans and algorithms, mapping the terrain of inter-agencies between people and machines. This helps to viscerally understand the complex causal chains in environments with AI components, including questions about what data to collect or who to collect it about, how the algorithms are chosen, commissioned and configured or how humans are conditioned by their participation in algorithmic processes.

Vincent Warmerdam builds a lot of NLP tools (https://github.com/koaning). Many of these tools target the scikit-learn ecosystem and there's a theme of labeling across many of them. A recent focus of his stack of tools is to improve training data. In this video, Vincent and Jay discuss a few of these tools and show how they work together. These tools are discussed in the video: - Human-learn: a toolkit to build human-based scikit-learn components - Doubtlab: a toolkit to help find doubtful labels in data - Embetter: A library that makes it very easy to use embeddings in scikit-learn - Bulk: a library that uses embeddings to leverage bulk labeling The talk includes live demos for each and to show how some simple tricks can go a long way. === Join the Cohere Discord: https://discord.gg/co-mmunity Discussion thread for this episode (feel free to ask questions): https://discord.com/channels/954421988141711382/1042163984817721527 Vincent on Twitter: https://twitter.com/fishnets88 human-learn: Natural Intelligence is still a pretty good idea. https://koaning.github.io/human-learn/index.html https://github.com/koaning/human-learn/ doubtlab: Doubt your data, find bad labels. https://koaning.github.io/doubtlab/ https://github.com/koaning/doubtlab embetter: just a bunch of useful embeddings https://github.com/koaning/embetter bulk: A Simple Bulk Labelling Tool https://github.com/koaning/bulk Calmcode: Code.

Currently, he works as a Machine Learning Engineer over at Explosion, the company behind spaCy and Prodi.gy. In addition to his work at Explosion, he also maintains many scikit-learn-related plugins as well as a popular learning resource over at calmcode.io. He's also a frequent speaker at conferences where he defends common sense over the hype in ML. === Contents 0:00 Introduction 3:06 Tools for Data Quality 9:18 human-learn: Natural Intelligence is still a pretty good idea. 12:28 human-learn: demo 27:11 doubtlab: Doubt your data, find bad labels. 42:35 embetter: just a bunch of useful embeddings 46:16 embetter: demo 58:10 bulk: A Simple Bulk Labelling Tool 1:00:20 bulk demo: exploring text data 1:10:47 bulk demo: exploring images 1:16:20 Why use the scikit learn API?

Steamship is building a platform to put Language AI in the hands of all developers. Plympton is partnering with Steamship on a fellowship program to explore the intersection of tech & literature. You’ll join a two-month-long fellowship in which we’ll coach you through building new features for Writing Atlas. We’ve planned each feature for a smooth development experience, and the results will be something you can show off in production.

bb15 art space is seeking proposals for its 2023-2024 program around the open-ended theme of friction. Friction is against sameness, the continuum, the immediate. An emerging friction defeats expectations, questions the agreement and is itchy. Frictioning implies resistance, going against a certain motion. bb15 is looking for projects that bring tension, distortion and counter-current into the flow of things.
