Andrew Trask - Really Quick Questions with an AI Researcher
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2017
- I ask 67 questions to Oxford Scholar and AI researcher Andrew Trask as we go for a walk through Granary Square in London, England. Trask is a PhD student at Oxford University where he researches Deep Learning approaches with special emphasis on human language. We worked together on my Udacity deep learning nanodegree and I have a great deal of respect for his technical storytelling ability.

This is the best person I ever saw in this question series.
very happy to hear
I like his answer to what music genre you're into: "Movie soundtracks. Because, they make me feel like whatever I'm doing is epic!"
I have a lot of admiration for this person. He comes across as very thoughtful and measured. Great questions as well. Good job.
Recommended books would be a cool question to ask :)
Yes was thinking that too, but would like it to be not about machine learning.
great idea
Distributed applications by Siraj Raval?
My favorite kind of videos on TH-cam! Thanks Siraj :) keep up the good work!
Totally agree on the part on PhD; how with the internet its easier than ever to self study and that education is now a bubble waiting for a correction.
very true
Education itself is not a bubble but the commercialization of it is.
Siraj, you gift us with the most amazing insights & we get to enjoy peeking into amazing minds... Thank you. That is bad ass AF. Keep on rocking your Purpose. You are a catalyst for the Change you want to see in the world. You Inspire. Again, thank you!
thanks Ozzie!
I like how he randomly decides to answer a really long answer once in a while.
haha i wish i could've captured more of our convo, very unique mind
Another really excellent interview! Thanks, Siraj.
Some interesting answers and that's what learning and improving are all about isn't it, being open to different answers. I like it, thanks for the video Siraj!
You can study for years and never gain the wisdom and overall depth of knowledge this man has, he's intelligent beyond a textbook.
quinkadink he has a PhD you idiot
@Shridhar Sharma He also mentioned that further education is irrelevant. He's just smart. You rude comment.
Drew Brooks So what you're saying is the a person with higher education who's dedicatedly studied a particular subject on an average won't be smarter in that particular field compared to someone who learnt it in parts just from the internet without teachers who were there to assist him?
I believe it depends on the person's character. Information is information, a degree-holding professional is not required to make information fact. If a person needs a mentor, making connections through a computer society like ACM or IEEE CS is viable. People have different learning styles, and computer science degrees attempt to force that which is focused on academia, and listening to professors/lecturers. My opinion is that valuable education is delayed due to "core-curriculum" pre-requisites. If a student wants to learn AI, don't force them into Art History first. Essentially, regardless of a student's dedication, their path isn't often negotiable through University. Efficiency is a motif in computing, efficiency should exist in learning as well!
Drew Brooks That is true but I think they "force" curriculum on us because we have no idea where a problem could arise we learn what is forced because that is also necessary.And about forcing people do to something obviously people who don't want to do something won't be as proficient as someone willing to do it.But I believe that having someone physically there to point to the lack of knowledge is waaaay better than someone on the internet.Nothing beats books and nothing beats unis.
These interviews are really interesting, and I always look forward to them - especially you interviewing Andrew Ng, Yan Le Cunn or Demis Hassabis. I did something similar recently after being inspired by you. :-)
thanks, awesome!
When you see guys like Siraj or Andrew you feel great and more appetizer to learn more .
thanks!
Wow. This is so interesting! Thank you Siraj for all the effort and content you put on your videos. And thanks to Andrew for his insights. I'm definitely gonna take a look at you Udacity nanodegree!
I was wandering if you know any good places where you can do research on AI (not only in the US). Is Oxford one of the best universities in this field? I'm looking for something "intense" (as Andrew said) to do next year, after I graduate.
Another great one!!!
Thank you so much for all the amazing material you put together. I know you work hard to create them, but you also have a real gift for being informative AND entertaining (and obviously cool; but you know that goes without saying).
I have a quick question on info that I hope may be useful to others. As someone who has programmed since the mid-80's, and done some AI with Scheme, LISP and Prolog in the early days, I am looking for efficient and informative AI/ML/DL materials like yours. I have found some phenomenal ones like Deep Learning TV (YT), Lynda's recent ones and others, but I have also found some really bad, time-wasting ones like the free Udacity's Google Deep Learning one and various others that abound.
I am so thankful for your great work, some of the amazing recently released books on these subjects, and the high level of interest and support among members of the community. My groups work on a range of media, data and AI projects, as part of AI research and Media Lab centers I founded, where people much more skilled than I work and play; but we get quite a range of specialties and subs, from music theory and writers to data science and sw developers.
Since we often converge around AI brainstorming and execution ideas, I'm looking for the best informational and training options-- or at least help to avoid some of the really poorly executed ones, since everyone's time is so precious, and this can be so much fun, given the right kind of support.
Although I know what is "best" depends on a range of subjective and specific focus/ application related factors; but, any recommendations you could provide would be very appreciated-- you have such a great knowledge base and perspective on so many important things (like humor).
In terms of AI libraries, frameworks and such, we are primarily focused on Tensorflow, PyTorch, and enabling components/extensions, using Python and C++; and materials like yours that combine theory with practical and applied are tremendously useful across a wide range of applications.
Anyway, thanks again for the mad skills!
Thanks for uploading this video!
Thanks for this!
Continue these awesome interviews :D
Awesome video! I was really looking forward to you interviewing an AI researcher instead of an engineer
thanks John!
He's like an expert in answering google questions. ^_^
My oh my! Andrew Trask in the house?!? This is a serious bonanza! Am having a blast!
I am supposed to be going to a DeepMind tour next week. Thanks for the video
thanks Hanz!
Keep up the awesome work, interviews and tutorials a like!
C++ in second grade???
like a boss
Atilla Respect Atilla. I started coding at 20 so I am quite new.
I mastered cobol in the womb
XD
Just goes to show you only get anywhere if your parents are already somewhere.
My off the cuff definition of consciousness is: using sensory information to make models of the world around yourself that can be used to make useful predictions and including yourself in the models.
Good questions and answers were on point. Nice!
Ive read the manning book. Daaaammmn so this is the author. Nice!!!!
Surprisingly interesting. I also liked the links on his work.
For me the take home point was, A.I. is another form of power capital, where at the moment it is money. If we don't decentralize then that power will once again belong in the hands of the few.
agreed
Adam -亚当- This seems to be darwinian nature, inequality grows as time goes on. However this could be the point in history where we have control of the distribution of power
Great video, Andrew is awesome!
you deserve way more subs buddy!!
thank you for deepmind interview
Honestly, this guy is amazing. Obviously brilliant, yet humble and eager to make the world a better place. Best response to the meaning of life: 'Love g0d and love people'
Seems like a cool guy. I like the diverse personalities you've covered Siraj.
i like that your videos are compact
Hi Siraj
The video on building image classifier using tensorflow was very helpful. Please make a video on object detection using tensorflow object detection API.
I freaking love your videos... this type of interview format I have never seen before and its awesome
Can you please do a draw my life or suggest if you already have one
I am 17 (India)and want to complete your courses but its my final year of school so my conscience is telling me not to focus on anything else (still I am watching your videos so...)
I am 14 and from India also.
thanks Famida!
NIce to hear about self-taught learning and about disruptive online education.
well done again Siraj!
What was the learning resource he mumbled at 16:07 ?
Udacity ML nanodegree
One Question I really want to ask an expert in machine learning. If I want to work in machine learning for industries, is it really worth getting a PHD in CS or I should just start working after my master degree in computer science?
I like these videos. How did you decide on the list of questions?
Awesome questionnaire..
Looking forward to meet u in india in pydata event
Siraj I would like to know these type of QA from Yourself
hmmm. someone should interview me lol. i have 2 on YT search 'lavendaire siraj raval' and 'confidence ml engineer siraj'
Well, I emailed you a few days back for an interview. Would love to do it.
JASON SCOT RAVAL AISHIUFHIUEHHHAHA dead m8 some deep insight on that though 90% understand that indian parent mentality hahahaha
What mentality are you talking about?
Pratyush Kumar fixed it for u
I really love this type of videos, it lets us to see the person behind of scientits/engineer.
One else god question it would be, i think
The visión of AI: Zuckerberg or Musk?
And, Siraj, Which library for artificial vision (specifically facial recognition) recommend me? OpenCV?
Btw, Viva Ubuntu!
thanks Pinkie. AI can be good or evil, depends on who uses it. OpenCV is great. cheers!
Siraj Raval thanks to you!
10:45
- What is consciousness?
*searching very deep into the mind*
*can't find the answer*
- I don't know
I identify so much with him
haha love it
Made me happy when he answered 'lua'
Siraj do you think that AI could be used to help extend lifespan and keep us all healthier for a longer period of time?
In the very last question, did he say he recommended the Udacity Nanodegree in ML? I couldn't quite hear what he said there.
yeah.He said that only.
Hey Siraj please make a video on your journey from childhood to ...............present
This man is so interesting. I'd love to just pick at his brain all day.
Please make a video about the implementation of rnn and cnn without frameworks. using python and numby or just python
But can you work as a scientist in AI field without PhD? I don't see any research vacancy in DeepMind that doesn't require PhD.
#Respect to Andrew Trask.
hit me up with more like these, you know it siraj!!
I think the lack of the ability of online education to motivate people to learn and to give them a broad education (not just the very skills you need everyday at you current job) is highly underestimated.
Hey Siraj, do you have a Really Quick Questions with Siraj Raval? If not, I think your fans (me included) would appreciate if you did one. Cheers!
you got it, i'll make it happen. either this month or next month
Amazing!
At 16:11 what "degree" Andrew mentions?
Mikhail Samoylov Udacity nanodegree :)
Good stuff.
I know Trask ain't reading this. But I am tooo into movie soundtracks. Like that's the only thing i listen to mostly always. :-D ..... Also i knew the answer to which website he wasted his time on :-p .... twitter cz he is really active there. Awesome guy none the less :-) ..... really awesome.
The what degree? Toward the end didn't catch that thanks
Hello Siraj, I am a *Python programmer* 15 years old kid from India and want a advice from you. Well I wanna be a Python programmer in future and I don't know where to start? What subjects should I choose in Class 11th or What steps should I follow to become a Data scientist or a AI researcher. *Please help* and *Great video again!*
Study PCM with Economics. Go deep into mathematics and statistics , you can use npetl for that.
Vaibhav Acharya first make sure you know math up to calculus. Then start from Computer Architecture (very important). Make sure you have crystal clear mental map of how the machine works (cpu, memory, i/o) without any abstractions. If you want to be a good progrmmer you need to know what your program is doing on the lowest level.
He articulated really well why religion and science aren't, or don't have to be enemies :)
Nice one.
Miś Koralgol I thought the contrary: Not really a distinction. Science is also trying to explain the unexplained, but isn't the yet. So both are making claims to reality, one of which is based on evidence and the other... 😉
" both religion and science are trying to understand the world "
Well if he means a general discussion about the idea of a higher power.
Then yeah sure.
If he is referring to monotheism; Christianity, Islam, Judaism.. Absolutely not seeking to understand the world. Seeking to reconcile an absolute totalitarian final word to a world that increasingly knows better.
I disagree. I don’t think he understands the difference.
How did I know he was going to say prestige And Interstellar.. those are my two favorite movies lmao
His book grokking deep learning is very good. I would recommend the book if you want to make deep learning intuitive. Check out his blog, it's awesome.
As a USA student, he must have to pay high fees, right?
CISMD PhD are fully funded. The only cost is opportunity cost.
16:23 when youre done with an interview and realize youre 3 miles away from where you needed to be
What is he saying at 14:43??
Melih Durmaz do to others as you want others to do to you. Something like that.
Oh. Thanks bro
Why is the sound in these "Quick Questins" always so weird?
What degree did he say he thinks it's very strong?
Siraj, why don't you ask these people you interview whether Machine Learning "RESEARCH" can be done without being a part of academia (or industry giants) or without having PhD?
Smart Dude!
Too many questions... hahahaha... but was very cool.. thanks for sharing
Dudeeee, do one of yourself!!! i needa know!
Siraj, I am from India studying in a local engineering college. I am trying to learn ml and deep learning and stumbled upon one of your videos. Your videos are awesome but I find it a bit tough or very fast. Can you make some detailed videos for beginners like me?
Bro same thing is with me,start with basics of nanodegree foundation and buy Andrew trask book Grokking deep learning
I think you should change the title to give a little intro about this guy.
At 7:00, Andrew mentions he admires the "former Firefox CEO" because of going forward with his beliefs... Is he referring to former Mozilla CEO, Brendan Eich?
Ricardo Cruz Yes I think that's who he would be talking about. The former CEO believed in marriage only being between a man and a woman. Got called, inhumane, a Nazi and a racist for it.
Yeah, I was sad to see him say that.
forward head posture
Wow he got 99% correct on this pop quiz!!!
Good man
TIL DeepMind Researcher knows as much about ML & AI as I do
13:55 yes!
We've got a potential ML Revolutionary in the making here, lol
Guy at 2:30 playing ping pong looks exactly like you Siraj!
Dude! I never noticed that his hair has a silver streak too! Good catch
Can you fall in love with 67 questions?
This is so awesome I really want to get into the world of Ai and machine learning as well as cyber security. I have played a little with OpenAi gym to build a self taught game bot 😂😂🌏🌏
Cool guy. Really liked his take on religion and science.
yea cool dude
Me too I don't know what is consciousness, I mean It even is very controversial for so many people
never-ever replace original audio with post-interview studio recording. It makes audience confused and was bit frustrating to me at the very beginning
If the quality of your voice was trash, add subtitles. And if you replaced it cause you didn't like your voice: next time just leave it - trust me, nobody cares
understood thanks
Siraj Raval ✌🤙
Great interview, keep up the good work ♡
It did for me. All of us are twisted in some way, right? ;)
Siraj Raval ya maybe but another mic so you can both be hooked up. Still fun to watch.
I actually found it more engaging this way. The difference in sound recording caught my attention, where as the content made me watch it all through.
"Upending the power structure of AI datasets" seems like a worthwhile problem. Linguistic data is too expensive to acquire.
What an absolute legend!
What open source in the th-cam.com/video/qJ1rdVEcl5g/w-d-xo.htmlm48s ?
Trade themarket pytorch
5:09 to 5:45 I had to listen to that twice.
So u just gave the camera to someone else and started playing table tennis ? :))
lol shouts to Tanmay Bakshi!
haha he is so cutie
After a question on religion, what text editor do you use? 😂😂
I can say, this man loves his wife a lot 😍😀
Those people in the background really need to deeplearn how to play ping-pong.
jesus christ this guy is a trillionaire in the human sexual market: he's good looking, incredibly intelligent, passionate, driven, carries himself confidently but not too confidently, enough social skills to carry a conversation, and is clearly able to commit to and nurture a long-term relationship with his sexual mate. What else could a women ask for...
A good collection of questions, brilliantly done!! 16 minutes and a lot to learn. Loved the response to the question on religion!
+1 for the Prestige
