Deep neural nets are shaping up to be the most important invention this century. Mind blowing.

I've been on this sub for a while but I still struggle to understand the terminology regarding the specific approaches to AI (neural nets, machine learning, transformers, etc.) Would you mind expanding your answer on deep neural nets and their importance? Or maybe recommend a good online resource? I'd love to learn more about them.

Thank you! I thoroughly enjoyed that! Need to watch that a couple of times. But I'm a sql developer so the idea of parameters and functions isn't new to me. I'm going to check out some more of that YouTube channel.

Strongly recommend fast.ai- it’s a very accessible course for machine learning and it’s completely free- and in the process they dive into this stuff. It’s mostly made up of videos that anyone with some technical background will be able to understand
