How does Q-learning work in stochastic environments?
The Q function uses the (current and future) states to determine the action that gets the highest reward.
However, in a stochastic environment, the current action (at the current state) does not determine the next state.
How does Q learning handle…

What size of neural networks can be trained on current consumer grade GPUs? (1060,1070,1080)
Is it possible to give a rule of thumb estimate about the size of neural networks that are trainable on common consumer-grade GPUs?
For example, the Emergence of Locomotion (Reinforcement) paper trains a network using tanh activation of the neurons.…

Do full-text translators such as DeepL or Google Translate fall under the term "Generative AI"?
My question relates to full-text translators that are not specifically based on LLMs. My current understanding is that the term Generative AI goes beyond LLMs and that the full-text translators (especially those which are based on artificial neural…

Why are LLMs able to reproduce bodies of known text exactly?
Mathematically, I wouldn't expect LLMs to be able to reproduce source texts exactly unless the source text was the probable outcome given some prompt. However, I have now tested HuggingFaceH4/zephyr-7b-beta, TheBloke/Llama-2-7B-Chat-GGUF, and…

Why spend so much time and money to build AIs to play games?
I was reading about John McCarthy and his orthodox vision of Artificial Intelligence. To me, it seems like he was not very much in favour of resources (like time and money) being used to make AIs play games like Chess. Instead, he wanted more to…

How do mutation and crossover work with real-valued chromosomes?
How exactly are "mutation" and "cross-over" applied in the context of a genetic algorithm based on real numbers (as opposed to just bits)? I think I understood how those two phases are applied in a "canonical" context where chromosomes are strings…
