What Was I Just Computing Again


Forget about it: A material that mimics the brain
Oct 2017, phys.org

Lattice breathing, electronic forgetting, and proton doping, oh my.

It's hard to find a material that forgets, but they've found one (U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, in collaboration with others), and now they're trying to make a better computer by making it forget, because we forget, and we are the ultimate computing machine, despite what you might think these days.

Post Script - On Forgetting Again

The internet is rotting - Thousands of sites go offline each year

How do we remove biases in AI systems? Start by teaching them selective amnesia
Mar 2020, phys.org
Jaiswal and co-author Daniel Moyer, Ph.D., developed the adversarial forgetting approach, which teaches deep learning models to disregard specific, unwanted data factors so that the results they produce are unbiased and more accurate.

Deep learning algorithms are great at learning things, but it's more difficult to make sure that the algorithms don't learn certain things. Developing algorithms is a very data-driven process, and data tends to contain biases.
