The TWIML AI Podcast (formerly This Week in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence) - A podcast by Sam Charrington - Mondays

Categories:

Today we’re joined by Celeste Kidd, Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley, to discuss her invited talk “How to Know” which details her lab’s research about the core cognitive systems people use to guide their learning about the world. We explore why people are curious about some things but not others, and how past experiences and existing knowledge shape future interests, why people believe what they believe, and how these beliefs are influenced, and how machine learning figures into the equation.
