-Towards an understanding of current issues.  Most of the content here is about generative AI (large language models and diffusion models) which is the hot topic as of February 2023, but there's a scattering of broader AI history and issues as well. [[#end_of_page|Jump to end.]]

 Caveats:
+  * **Mostly stopped updating in April 2023, keeping up got exhausting.** There are better sources out there for current developments. Consider this a static account of the late 2022/early 2023 hype.
   * I am not a machine learning expert nor do I work in the field. This page is a scratchpad, reflecting my current efforts to catch up in my understanding of the tech and surrounding issues.
   * All comments and opinions are my own, and are not intended to reflect the positions of my employer or anyone affiliated with me.
