Too many models
How many AI models is too many? It depends on how you look at it… but 10 a week is probably a bit much. That’s how many we had in the last few days, or close to it, and it’s increasingly hard to say whether and how these models compare to one another — if it was ever possible to begin with. So what’s the point? We’re at a weird time in the evolution of AI, though of course it’s been pretty weird … [Read more...]
