This solution deploys an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance running in an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) that ingests tweets from Twitter. An Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream loads the streaming tweets into the raw prefix in the solution’s Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket. Amazon S3 invokes an AWS Lambda function to analyze the raw tweets using Amazon Translate to translate non-English tweets […]

Speech is central to human interaction, and beyond words, it helps us express feelings and emotions: who can forget HAL 9000’s haunting final scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey? In the real world, things are […]
Intro to Pytorch with W&B
In this tutorial we’ll walk through a simple convolutional neural network to classify the images in CIFAR10 using PyTorch. We’ll also set up Weights & Biases to log models metrics, inspect performance and share findings about the best architecture for the network. In this example we’re using Google Colab as a convenient hosted environment, but you can run your […]

What is the difference between artificial intelligence, machine learning, active learning, and deep learning?
Today, the terms artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are often used interchangeably. While the terms are related, they mean different things. Disentangling the complicated relationships between these terms can be a difficult task. We’ll try to map out how they all relate to one another, so your team can find the best candidates, […]
