Key Notes

Technical model stated on 2024-06-13.

definition

He defines traditional computer programming as algorithm plus input producing output, and supervised machine learning as turning the desired output into part of the input so the computer can refine the algorithm.

AI limitation stated on 2024-06-13.

diagnosis

Jiang says AI does not have self-awareness and can only do what the algorithm tells it to do.
