Tools to Improve Training Data - Talking Language AI Ep#2
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.

Steamship Fellowship for Language AI at Writing Atlas - Airtable
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.
Open Call – bb15
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.

This Project is an attempt to use deep learning as a tool to question human representation. Human faces and their humanist understanding of the “natural” are modified with facial features of unwanted bodies. Influenced by posthuman visions, the aim is to overcome a binary worldview and embrace hybrid futures and diverse bodies.
