How do we determine distances between the earth, sun, and moon, and from the sun to other planets, stars, and distant galaxies? We can't measure these directly, but indirect methods, combined with some basic high school math, can provide convincing and accurate…

Bézier curves - how do they do?

They're used for animation, text rendering, and all sorts of curved shapes! But how do they actually work? well, like, that's what the video is about, so, watch it to find out etc!!

This talk was given on Tuesday, May 2, 2017.

This is the first overview lecture in a new short-course on complex analysis. Here we motivate and introduce complex numbers z=x+iy, discuss how they are solutions to differential equations, and explain how to perform basic arithmetic, such as addition,…

Supersmart algorithms won't take all the jobs, But they are learning faster than ever, doing everything from medical diagnostics to serving up ads.

As The Joy of Why podcast returns for a second season, producer Polly Stryker and host Steven Strogatz invite listeners to join them and their brilliant new guests on another voyage of discovery.

OpenAI’s chatbot offers paraphrases, whereas Google offers quotes. Which do we prefer?

Let's review the most important math topics used by game devs, reflect about math education, and discuss techniques that can be used to improve the way we learn new math topics.

Stephen Wolfram explores the broader picture of what's going on inside ChatGPT and why it produces meaningful text. Discusses models, training neural nets, embeddings, tokens, transformers, language syntax.

A wave of research improves reinforcement learning algorithms by pre-training them as if they were human.

The a16z Games team covers the intersection of the Gaming and Generative AI. How does Generative AI differ from AI? What are ways this technology is being applied in the game development process? What are the critcisms Generative AI has received regarding…

In this video we explore Euler Rotations, the most common method for orienting objects in 3d. It's by-product "gimbal lock" can cause headaches for animators because the animated motion can move in strange ways. Here we learn how euler's "rotation order"…

Recorded 01 March 2023. Pascal Van Hentenryck of the Georgia Institute of Technology presents "Fusing Machine Learning and Optimization" at IPAM's Artificial Intelligence and Discrete Optimization Workshop.
Abstract: The fusion of machine learning and optimization…

Dr. Li Jiang is a director of Stanford AIRE program. Many of you think ChatGPT started the era of AI. But, Dr. Jiang says it started already. AI seems much better than we do. It seems it can solve many problems. Then, what can we do? How can we survive from…

This course introduces the foundations of neuroscience, from the biochemistry of neurotransmitters, the electrical basis of action potentials, to the computations performed by neural circuitry and the social implications of atypical neural function. This…
