Description
Sean Moriarity, author of Genetic Algorithms in Elixir and creator of the Axon Library, joins Elixir Wizards Sundi Myint and Bilal Hankins to discuss Elixir’s role in the future of machine learning and AI. He explains the difference between artificial intelligence, chat models, machine learning, deep learning systems, and neural networks.
Large language models have great potential for code generation, education tools, streamlining workflow, and more. Deployment, development experience, and real-time processing make Elixir an ideal programming language for creating and improving machine learning tools.
Key Topics Discussed in this Episode:
The difference between machine learning and artificial intelligence
How Axon builds on top of the Nx library for deep learning in Elixir
Why logic cannot fully define characteristics that identify golden retrievers
How Google Translate uses machine learning with a unified language model
The difficulties in translating concepts with no direct counterpart between languages
Data cleaning and labeling challenges
How Sean's interest in sports betting led to exploring machine learning
Why Sean's NBA betting model recommended betting $0 to maximize profit
Getting started with machine learning and Elixir projects
Attention mechanisms in neural networks
Bias and exceptions in machine translation models
How hummus preference was used to determine Sundi's Hogwarts house
Sean's work on a LiveView interface for ChatGPT
Why Elixir's deployment story, development experience, and real-time processing are good fits for machine learning applications

Bryan Joseph on ElixirScript – Elixir Internals: Today on the show we continue our series on the inner workings and various libraries of Elixir and are very happy to welcome Bryan Joseph of Revelry to talk about his very own ElixirScript. ElixirScript is essentially an Elixir to JavaScript compiler, allowing users to run Elixir online more easily. by Elixir Wizards
