I speak w/ Maroof Farooq, an AI engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof's views are his own, and not that of his employer.] We walk through how to build AI from scratch using the fictitious example of the Seefood [Sic] app from the HBO television series, Silicon Valley. We learn about image classification, how to acquire a dataset, and how to train the AI. Join us as we build a super-impressive AI that can recognize hot dogs of all shapes and sizes. Learn what it takes to go from there to an AI that can recognize foods of all kinds. Maybe even pizza. Join us as we begin our deep dive into the world of AI, starting with the humble hot dog. Today: Shazam for food. Tomorrow: Judgement Day. Buckle up folks. It's going to be a wild ride.
We laugh. We cry. We iterate.
