The world often feels rigged. And this episode is a wake-up call to recognize the barriers that exist for those who don’t fit the traditional mold. In this episode, which is a kind of tribute to my dear departed Dad, I recount some powerful lessons from the man who was a brilliant psychiatrist and my biggest champion. He taught me that if something feels off about the environment you’re in, it probably is—and it’s absolutely hella-not your fault. We dare to break into the uncomfortable truth that many workplaces are designed for a very specific demographic, leaving neurodivergent individuals, particularly those on the autism spectrum, feeling excluded. I share three stories in which my Dad imparted to me more than my fair share of his wisdom, and I'm hoping you to can feel empowered. You'll learn that we can advocate for ourselves and others to create a more inclusive work culture.

26 weeks ago24:25

24:25

Subscribe to our new channel https://www.youtube.com/@DataScienceatHome In this episode of Data Science at Home, we confront a tragic story highlighting the ethical and emotional complexities of AI technology. A U.S. teenager recently took his own life after developing a deep emotional attachment to an AI chatbot emulating a character from Game of Thrones. This devastating event has sparked urgent discussions on the mental health risks, ethical responsibilities, and potential regulations surrounding AI chatbots, especially as they become increasingly lifelike. 🎙️ Topics Covered: AI & Emotional Attachment: How hyper-realistic AI chatbots can foster intense emotional bonds with users, especially vulnerable groups like adolescents. Mental Health Risks: The potential for AI to unintentionally contribute to mental health issues, and the challenges of diagnosing such impacts. Ethical & Legal Accountability: How companies like Character AI are being held accountable and the ethical questions raised by emotionally persuasive AI. 🚨 Analogies Explored: From VR to CGI and deepfakes, we discuss how hyper-realism in AI parallels other immersive technologies and why its emotional impact can be particularly disorienting and even harmful. 🛠️ Possible Mitigations: We cover potential solutions like age verification, content monitoring, transparency in AI design, and ethical audits that could mitigate some of the risks involved with hyper-realistic AI interactions. 👀 Key Takeaways: As AI becomes more realistic, it brings both immense potential and serious responsibility. Join us as we dive into the ethical landscape of AI—analyzing how we can ensure this technology enriches human lives without crossing lines that could harm us emotionally and psychologically.

Can AI really out-compress PNG and FLAC? 🤔 Or is it just another overhyped tech myth? In this episode of Data Science at Home, Frag dives deep into the wild claims that Large Language Models (LLMs) like Chinchilla 70B are beating traditional lossless compression algorithms. 🧠💥 But before you toss out your FLAC collection, let's break down Shannon's Source Coding Theorem and why entropy sets the ultimate limit on lossless compression. We explore: ⚙️ How LLMs leverage probabilistic patterns for compression 📉 Why compression efficiency doesn’t equal general intelligence 🚀 The practical (and ridiculous) challenges of using AI for compression 💡 Can AI actually BREAK Shannon’s limit—or is it just an illusion? If you love AI, algorithms, or just enjoy some good old myth-busting, this one’s for you. Don't forget to hit subscribe for more no-nonsense takes on AI, and join the conversation on Discord!
