The Cake first appeared in my talk at the NYU future of AI Symposium in early 2016.
Here is a video from my 2016 NIPS keynote.
The point was that there is much more knowledge to extract about the world using self-supervised learning from high-bandwidth sensory input such as

Quantum Computing AI Applications: Skepticism on Five-Year Timeline
By
–
By "not any time soon", I mean "clearly not in the next 5 years", contrary to a number of folks in the AI industry.
Yes, I'm skeptical of quantum computing, particularly when it comes to its application to AI. -

Enhancing Visuospatial Cognition Through AI Tools
By
–
It's interesting that our brains have so much difficulty visualizing this even when we're looking directly at it. Makes you wonder what we could build with just a bit more visuospatial ability. Luckily we have tools.

ConvNets computational efficiency compared to 2007 object recognition models
By
–
Not true. ConvNets were actually relatively cheap compared to the dominant models of object recognition circa 2007.
They were much smaller than current architectures, of course. -
AI Vision Limitations with Dynamic Movement and Scenes

–
I agree. I also wonder how it will deal with movements like sitting down, lying down, running – I imagine it only works well with static scenery.

Standing in solidarity with @beffjezos and the e/acc movement. It was a lame move by Forbes, but we won't be deterred. It's time to accelerate even more…

ConvNets Early Debates: Computer Vision Community’s Intellectual Journey
By
–
Haha!
It wasn't quite like that.
Many senior members of the CV community were actually very friendly and curious about ConvNets (if skeptical).
There was a true intellectual debate.
Everyone had to have a "theory" of how vision worked.
For me, it was end-to-end gradient-based -
NASA Lunar VIPER Mission AI Planning System Success
