How do you start a sentiment analysis project?
June 16, 2023 /Developers/ — Sentiment analysis is the process of determining the emotional tone of a piece of text. It is a subfield of natural language processing (NLP) that deals with identifying and extracting subjective information from text. Sentiment analysis is often used to understand customer sentiment, brand reputation, and social media trends.

Quickly extract key insights from complex data
May 1, 2023 /Technology/ — Artificial intelligence (AI) can be a valuable tool for data exploration. It can help to increase speed, improve accuracy, and reduce costs. However, it is important to note that AI is not a replacement for human analysts. AI can help to automate tasks, but it is still important for human analysts to be involved in the data exploration process to ensure that the results are accurate and meaningful. AI is used in data exploration in a variety of ways. Some of the most common uses include:

What Large Language Models (or LLMs) are, how they are developed, and how they work.
April 19, 2023 /Technology/ — A large language model (LLM) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that is trained on a massive amount of text data. This data can be anything from books and articles to social media posts and code. LLMs are able to learn the statistical relationships between words and phrases, which allows them to generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. LLMs can be used for a variety of tasks, including: Continue reading
AI will soon become impossible for humans to comprehend – the story of neural networks tells us why
David Beer, University of York
In 1956, during a year-long trip to London and in his early 20s, the mathematician and theoretical biologist Jack D. Cowan visited Wilfred Taylor and his strange new “learning machine”. On his arrival he was baffled by the “huge bank of apparatus” that confronted him. Cowan could only stand by and watch “the machine doing its thing”. The thing it appeared to be doing was performing an “associative memory scheme” – it seemed to be able to learn how to find connections and retrieve data.
Digital welfare dystopia
By Samuel Woodhams | Digital rights researcher and journalist
Algorithms to determine welfare payments and detect fraud are becoming standard practice around the world. From Manchester to Melbourne, peoples’ lives are being shaped by secretive tools that determine who is eligible for what, and how much debt is owed. Although the technology has been around for some time, the outbreak of COVID-19 renewed enthusiasm for the digital welfare state and, for thousands of cash-strapped public bodies, the promise of increased efficiency and lower costs has proven irresistible. |
Horrible bosses: how algorithm managers are taking over the office
Robert Donoghue, University of Bath and Tiago Vieira, European University Institute
The 1999 cult classic film Office Space depicts Peter’s dreary life as a cubicle-dwelling software engineer. Every Friday, Peter tries to avoid his boss and the dreaded words: “I’m going to need you to go ahead and come in tomorrow.”
