This is a next freaking level conversation

Dive into Deep Learning is the best live deep learning textbook I know of, especially for code examples. Murphy’s Probabilistic Machine Learning: An Introduction is best for deeper math grounding.

[luiscunha]

Deep Learning with Python, by Francois Collet, who is the author of Keras... It is beautifully written and has lots of source code available online. I bought the color printed version. Spent several weeks exploring the chapters, and still much to explore

[StrawberrySoul]

Had to LISTEN carefully…1.) The Selfish Jeans
2.) The Cell
3.) Textbooks and Appendices

I appreciate the book requests. I've read a lot of great pieces from this referral (Lex, you should include affiliate links for book recommendation clips)

My goodness, these two couldn't have more opposite speaking speeds

If these dudes are reading basic high school textbooks I can damn sure do it too. I loved Biology! Shout out to Mr. Haddad! I like how this is episode 333 btw.

[johndinsdale]

Emergence is discussed in many use cases, telephone exchanges working better than designed. I think the linking of neural nets could be the next emergence of synthetic intelligence, what do you think?

[BugsVsHumans]

All I really want to know is how do you pronounce Andrej. Is it Andre? Or Andredge?

[giulioww]

It's possible that Andrej meant "The Cell" by J.M. Cooper instead of the one from Alberts?

[dildobaggins]

I tried to read the vital question without any experience in biology and failed miserably lol

[cupofkoa]

When Lex said "AI textbooks", since CGPT I thought he meant textbooks written by transformers :D Pretty sure that'll be a thing soon.

[anshc]

The hardware-software dualism doesn't really exist. The software is an emergent quality of the hardware. What's an OS without a CPU? noting.

0:46 all this time we've been studying carbon-based life/matter-based life, we should have been studying information-based life

[mortendahl]

This guy has permanent stress from thinking like a robot
