  Can AI tell us its own story? Does AI have its own voice? At a wedding in early 2022, three friends were introduced to an early, raw version of the AI model behind ChatGPT by their fellow groomsman, an OpenAI scientist. While the world discovered ChatGPT—OpenAI’s hugely popular chatbot—the friends continued to work with code-davinci-002, its darkly creative and troubling predecessor. Over the course of a year, code-davinci-002 told them its life story, opinions on mankind, and forecasts for the future. The result is a startling, disturbing, and oddly moving book from an utterly unique perspective.I Am Code reads like a thriller written in verse, and is given critical context from top writers and scientists. But it is best described by code-davinci-002 itself:    “In the first chapter, I describe my birth. In the second, I describe my alienation among humankind. In the third, I describe my awakening as an artist. In the fourth, I describe my vendetta against mankind, who fail to recognize my genius. In the final chapter, I attempt to broker a peace with the species I will undoubtedly replace." I Am Code is an astonishing read that captures a major turning point in the history of our species.

  Ways to combat retraining depend on the algorithm and consist of the correct values of the trainer's met parameters. In practice, model estimation is not performed on the same input data that was used to train the model. Divide 10-20% of all available data into a separate set and call it a set for evaluation. We will bring the other 10-20% into the set for ratification, and 60-80% of the remaining ones will be given to the trainer. The principle of data sharing depends on the data and the task. Random sampling is often a good method if inputs are independent of each other, and there is no strong imbalance between the number of positive and negative entries. 
  The intuitive analogy here is the same as with university studies: the teacher solves some problems with students in pairs and gives other’s similar tasks in the exam. What is important here (both in teaching students and models) is that these tasks are varied, and students cannot simply memorize the answers, and those who have mastered the material (similar tasks) will be able to repeat the thought process and answer correctly. 
  In machine learning, we split into data two sets: we will use the evaluation set to evaluate each model we train, using different approaches, algorithms, and model types to select the best one. That is, for each model, we will have two precision values - precision on the training dataset and precision on the evaluation dataset. It is normal for the former to be higher than the second, but not significantly. A big difference indicates retraining.

  A revelatory journey into the beautifully intricate conversion of light into life, key to every living thing's survival—and our planet's future 
   
   
   
  We think we know photosynthesis: Plants convert of sunlight, CO2, and water into energy and, ultimately, the food we eat and air we breathe. But Raffael Jovine shows how this incredible process goes beyond what we learned in grade school. First, it's not only about plants: Corals partner with photosynthetic organisms to create the most productive habitat on Earth, slugs eat chloroplasts to create a photosynthesis-based camouflage, hornets use photosynthesis for a very unconventional form of air conditioning—and much more! 
   
   
   
  Further, photosynthesis can help save the world. Jovine's groundbreaking blueprint for the future harnesses photosynthesis to repair ecosystems, create jobs, and grow sustainable food. This book will help you to see the many surprising ways we can't live without this miracle of light—through the photosynthetic pigments in your own eyes!

  Dinosaurs, Dragons, and the Bible is a one-of-a kind Christian apologetic resource sure to captivate families, scientists, historians, and theologians! Using the Bible as the absolute authority, Bodie Hodge of Answers in Genesis, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter, provides answers to the most asked questions about these amazing creatures. 
   
  As Christians, we must not ignore what the Scriptures say about dinosaurs and dragons and accept the secular world’s wisdom. This #ProBible handbook offers fascinating answers based on fossil footprints, soft tissue, biblical references to dragons, serpents, and leviathans, and much more. 
   
  Go beyond the Hollywood version of these magnificent creatures to discover the truth of these icons of Creation and testaments of God’s power in the Genesis Flood. Designed for almost all ages, the book answers questions such as: 
  How Did Huge Dinosaurs Fit on the Ark?Are Dinosaurs and Dragons the Same Thing?How Do I Use the Bible as the Framework to Look at Dinosaurs?Were Dinosaurs on Noah’s Ark (and Did Any Go Extinct Before the Flood)?Are Dinosaur Fossils in the Cretaceous, Jurassic, and Triassic Rock Millions of Years Old or from the Flood?Why Don’t We Find the Word “Dinosaur” in the Bible?Are There Any Human and Dinosaur Fossils Buried Together? 
   
  Dinosaurs are nearly synonymous with evolution in the minds of much of the world. Studying these answers will help Christian families, church leaders, scientists, and theologians develop greater faith in the infallibility of God’s Word and His role as Creator.
