Good morning! Today: a fundamental flaw with the way we train AI means it often doesn't work in the real world, and how election results get certified. Get your friends to sign up here to get The Download every day.

The way we train AI is fundamentally flawed
 

A problem: A group of 40 Google researchers has identified a major cause for the common failure of machine-learning models. It’s called “underspecification” and it means we can’t tell if the machine-learning models we use today will work in the real world or not. That’s a real problem.

The evidence: The researchers looked at a range of different AI applications, from image recognition to natural language processing (NLP) to disease prediction. They found that underspecification was to blame for poor performance in all of them. The problem lies in the way that machine-learning models are trained and tested, and there’s no easy fix. 

What it means: We need to be doing a lot more testing, but that won’t be easy. Read the full story.

—Will Douglas Heaven


How election results get certified

What happens now: Even though the winner of an American election usually gets announced soon after the vote happens, the result is never actually official on Election Day. Results actually become real when state and local election authorities make sure that every valid vote was counted and formally certify them.

The process: Election officials canvass results by tabulating and verifying the outcome across their states. They look at provisional ballots, and those which were challenged according to state and sometimes even county laws. After checking them over, the results are certified. On December 14, the Electoral College casts its votes and then the states are done. We’re still waiting on official results from a number of key states including Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona and Nevada. Biden is winning in all of them.

What’s different? Counting may have taken longer this year because the pandemic dramatically increased the number of mail-in ballots, but the only meaningful difference is that the sitting president is carrying on an unprecedented, baseless attack on the results. He’s launched over a dozen legal efforts to prove fraud, challenge counts, and delay certification but every lawsuit has effectively failed so far. Read the full story.

—Patrick Howell O’Neill

  + Yet another reason to love Dolly Parton: she was involved in funding the Moderna vaccine (and the fact it has 95% efficacy is just… too perfect).

If you are wondering where the pages that contained the words "excerpt", "Introducing" or other words indicating I was quoting a book have all gone, I migrated all of them over to Posts and Posted them all on August 18 and August 19 2024. I did that so you could use the search widget that is built in to the blog on the upper right hand corner. You will be happy to know that there are more of them than just the batch that were migrated, there were also lots of posts that contained the same words that did not have to be migrated over, they were there all along. I am really enjoying doing introductions and excerpts because it really makes for powerful and fascinating reading when I do them. You get the feeling you are in a bookstore holding a book in your hand looking at the table of contents and deciding whether or not to buy the book.

Contributions Welcome

The following request applies to any of the christian ministries that are currently getting visitors from my blog:

I am currently blogging: https://webmaster220.blogspot.com
I would like to place a banner on the right side of my home page that promotes your ministry
If I do that and it helps your ministry grow and expand do you have a suggestion as to what type of commission or contribution could be paid to my ministry. The reason I am saying that is there are a lot of ministries out there that are buying advertising space online and yours could be one of them for all I know. I have been an affiliate marketer for years on my blog but no commissions have ever been earned even though I am doing everything required to be done to earn the commissions. My blog readers are just not interested in spending any money on any of the goods or services discussed in my banner ads and text links. To reply, use the contact form below this paragraph Thanks, Rick Livermore - Webmaster220
