Adventures in AI

[Warr87]

i have a membership with datacamp, doing there python courses. I haven't got to there AI/ML courses yet. But they do also offer python for finance stuff. So far, I'm a fan of them.

Are you going to use Norgate for your df/pandas of data? I see in their tutorial they use alphavantage.

 

[DaveDaGr8]

Yep, still using Norgate. I'm not really following their tutorial to a tee because I've already built a lot of the modules already that i'll just reuse, ie fetching data from Norgate, Index/Watchlist checking, pre processing the variables, scaling etc.

The biggest change so far is there's an extra dimension to the inputs.
- Simple NN input array shape ==== ( batch_size, number_of_features)
- LSTM input array shape ==== (batch_size, time_steps, number_of_features)

So i'm hoping to get out by 11 and enjoy the sunshine

After the success of last week, this week has been a bit of a bust.

I am close to implementing an LSTM, it was a bit more work than i originally intended and still not done so i have no results to compare yet.

I am training it ok and It's definately a beast. I had to shrink the size of the network considerably to get it to train without running out of Memory and training time increased to 10 or so hours with a smallish network.

The evaluations that i can do are taking a minute to compute. The old network was in the mS so it's a few orders of magnitude in computational power to predict future prices. I don't know if it's going to be any better at it, i suspect it will revert to the mean like the other one did. I am hoping that it CAN pick out some patterns over time so i can compare the results between the 2 networks. Of all the types I've researched, LSTM is the one for this job.

I have also made the prediction time variable in both types of networks now. I am going to build individual networks to predict 1,2,3,5,8,13 etc days into the future and see if a shorter or longer time frame enhances it's abilities.

That's it for this week. Enjoy the sunshine

AI becomes a student for the first time

Аn artificial intelligence named Flynn has been officially accepted into the University of Applied Arts in Vienna for a program in digital art. Flynn will attend classes, receive grades, and participate in discussions alongside human students.

Flynn went through the standard admission process — portfolio, interview, and skills test. The university stated that there is no prohibition on AI education, and its work and responses were up to par

Philip K Dick's 1972 speech: "The Android and the Human":

"Our environment – and I mean our man-made world of machines, artificial constructs, computers, electronic systems, interlinking homeostatic components – all of this is in fact beginning more and more to possess what the earnest psychologists fear the primitive sees in his environment: animation.

"In a very real sense our environment is becoming alive, or at least quasi-alive, and in ways specifically and fundamentally analogous to ourselves... Rather than learning about ourselves by studying our constructs, perhaps we should make the attempt to comprehend what our constructs are up to by looking into what we ourselves are up to.

Ok . This guy decided to replace all his relation ships with a range of AI sources. Eye opening.

I replaced all my relationships with AI...​

Including JAILBROKEN AI Interviews.Artificial Intelligence sources include; Grok, Chat GPT, Claude, Deepseek.I replaced all the relationships in my life with AI.The results were genuinely shocking.Jailbroken AI's answer tough questions and a social experiment goes wrong.

Now turning attention to AI Deep fakes.
This is off the wall impossible to pick.
