Spelade

  • I don’t like to admit it, but I’m dependant on caffeine to get motivated in the mornings.

    On an intellectual level, I don’t like it. But emotionally, I don’t know any other way to get by.

    So if you’re in the same boat as me…

    I think you’ll enjoy my guest today Nathaniel Solace. We talk about heaps of different ways to kick your caffeine habit and feel more energized.

    I was first drawn to Nathaniel after I listened to a few podcasts he did on Dopamine Detoxes.

    It’s pretty crazy how this little neurotransmitter can seriously affect our lives (for good and bad). Frankly, it's a topic not spoken about enough.

    So If you’re like me and you’re into optimizing your health and getting the most out of your energy.

    You’ll love this episode.

    Here’s what we chat about today.

    ***What to do if you can’t function unless you’re caffeinated. Nathaniel discusses proven ways to get off the coffee and feel even more ENERGIZED.

    **Why the number one thing that blocks all momentum in any entrepreneurs’ business...is themselves. Hear about the simple exercise that injects more excitement and pleasure into your day.

    **Three simple hacks to dramatically boost your mental clarity and energy.

    Then stick around, because you’re in good hands on Email List Profit Secrets.

  • If you're a long-time listener of Storytelling Secrets...

    You've probably heard me say this timeless piece of wisdom...

    "People want to see your scars. Not your wounds".

    Which basically means, when it comes to publishing content...

    It's best you tell people about your struggles...after you've gotten through them. That way you can inspire them and give them hope that they can do it too.

    That to me is strategic storytelling.

    Naturally, I have to lead by example for you.

    And today, I hit a major personal milestone. It's been four years in the making and I wanted to share it with you today.

    Let's dive in.

  • Marc Wallert, Trainer, Redner und Bestsellerautor im Interview. Im Jahr 2000 hat Marc 140 Tage als Geisel im philippinischen Dschungel überlebt. 15 Jahre wirkte er als Führungskraft in internationalen Unternehmen und heute kombiniert er Führungserfahrung mit Entführungserfahrung. Er inspiriert Menschen und Organisationen, wie sie stark durch Krisen kommen und gestärkt aus ihnen hervorgehen. Aktuell erschien sein Buch: Stark durch Krisen - Von der Kunst, nicht den Kopf zu verlieren. 

    Wir stecken mitten in der Coronakrise und sind Geiseln eines Virus. Marc und ich sprechen in dieser Folge darüber, welche Bilder, Ziele und welches Denken uns hilft, um nicht den Kopf zu verlieren und stark zu bleiben. Warum ist ZU positives Denken in einer Krise nicht hilfreich? Wie kommt man raus aus der Opferrolle? Wie hat die Kommunikation mit den asiatischen Geiselnehmern funktioniert? Ist „Krönchen richten und weiter“ nach der Krise eine hilfreiche Strategie? Welche Dschungelstrategien überträgt Marc in den Businessalltag?

  • Professor Mark Bishop does not think that computers can be conscious or have phenomenological states of consciousness unless we are willing to accept panpsychism which is idea that mentality is fundamental and ubiquitous in the natural world, or put simply, that your goldfish and everything else for that matter has a mind. Panpsychism postulates that distinctions between intelligences are largely arbitrary.

    Mark’s work in the ‘philosophy of AI’ led to an influential critique of computational approaches to Artificial Intelligence through a thorough examination of John Searle's 'Chinese Room Argument'

    Mark just published a paper called artificial intelligence is stupid and causal reasoning wont fix it. He makes it clear in this paper that in his opinion computers will never be able to compute everything, understand anything, or feel anything. 

    00:00:00​ Tim Intro

    00:15:04​ Intro 

    00:18:49​ Introduction to Marks ideas 

    00:25:49​ Some problems are not computable 

    00:29:57​ the dancing was Pixies fallacy 

    00:32:36​ The observer relative problem, and its all in the mapping 

    00:43:03​ Conscious Experience 

    00:53:30​ Intelligence without representation, consciousness is something that we do 

    01:02:36​ Consciousness helps us to act autonomously 

    01:05:13​ The Chinese room argument 

    01:14:58​ Simulation argument and computation doesn't have phenomenal consciousness 

    01:17:44​ Language informs our colour perception 

    01:23:11​ We have our own distinct ontologies 

    01:27:12​ Kurt Gödel, Turing and Penrose and the implications of their work 

  • Today we are going to talk about the *Data-efficient image Transformers paper or (DeiT) which Hugo is the primary author of. One of the recipes of success for vision models since the DL revolution began has been the availability of large training sets. CNNs have been optimized for almost a decade now, including through extensive architecture search which is prone to overfitting. Motivated by the success of transformers-based models

    in Natural Language Processing there has been increasing attention in applying these approaches to vision models. Hugo and his collaborators used a different training strategy and a new distillation token to get a massive increase in sample efficiency with image transformers. 

    00:00:00 Introduction

    00:06:33 Data augmentation is all you need

    00:09:53 Now the image patches are the convolutions though?

    00:12:16 Where are those inductive biases hiding?

    00:15:46 Distillation token

    00:21:01 Why different resolutions on training

    00:24:14 How data efficient can we get?

    00:26:47 Out of domain generalisation

    00:28:22 Why are transformers data efficient at all? Learning invariances

    00:32:04 Is data augmentation cheating?

    00:33:25 Distillation strategies - matching the intermediatae teacher representation as well as output

    00:35:49 Do ML models learn the same thing for a problem?

    00:39:01 How is it like at Facebook AI?

    00:41:17 How long is the PhD programme?

    00:42:03 Other interests outside of transformers?

    00:43:18 Transformers for Vision and Language

    00:47:40 Could we improve transformers models? (Hybrid models)

    00:49:03 Biggest challenges in AI?

    00:50:52 How far can we go with data driven approach?

  • Christoph Molnar is one of the main people to know in the space of interpretable ML. In 2018 he released the first version of his incredible online book, interpretable machine learning. Interpretability is often a deciding factor when a machine learning (ML) model is used in a product, a decision process, or in research. Interpretability methods can be used to discover knowledge, to debug or justify the model and its predictions, and to control and improve the model, reason about potential bias in models as well as increase the social acceptance of models. But Interpretability methods can also be quite esoteric, add an additional layer of complexity and potential pitfalls and requires expert knowledge to understand. Is it even possible to understand complex models or even humans for that matter in any  meaningful way?

  • Dr. Ishan Misra is a Research Scientist at Facebook AI Research where he works on Computer Vision and Machine Learning. His main research interest is reducing the need for human supervision, and indeed, human knowledge in visual learning systems. He finished his PhD at the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon. He has done stints at Microsoft Research, INRIA and Yale. His bachelors is in computer science where he achieved the highest GPA in his cohort. 

    Ishan is fast becoming a prolific scientist, already with more than 3000 citations under his belt and co-authoring with Yann LeCun; the godfather of deep learning.  Today though we will be focusing an exciting cluster of recent papers around unsupervised representation learning for computer vision released from FAIR. These are; DINO: Emerging Properties in Self-Supervised Vision Transformers, BARLOW TWINS: Self-Supervised Learning via Redundancy Reduction and PAWS: Semi-Supervised Learning of Visual Features by Non-Parametrically Predicting View Assignments with

    Support Samples. All of these papers are hot off the press, just being officially released in the last month or so. Many of you will remember PIRL: Self-Supervised Learning of Pretext-Invariant Representations which Ishan was the primary author of in 2019.
