there's construction outside my house so i've started recording myself improvising music along with the construction machines--- how they look and how they sound--- and it's so fun

Sharpn🔪ss predicts ✅generalz'n xcept when it doesn't,eg ✖️formers
But what's🔪?Which point is🔪er?
Find out
*why it's a tricky Q(hint: #symmetry)
*why our answer does let🔪predict generalz'n, even in ✅formers!

I've been finding a way to get chatGPT to talk in a tone I haven't seen/read it take on before... interesting...
Just a few examples here. Note that the use of 'bold' was chatGPT's own choice, and I had not mentioned anything about safety nets in my interactions in this session.

i am so superduper excited to show a little glimpse of this system we're developing for an improvising #music system with #AI! i can't explain how *actually* fun it is to play with this.

i love when in the middle of a familiar tune suddenly a groove presents itself... with a slow, natural build that takes its time

Friday night is tango night… I love how mysterious that e minor chord at the end of the video sounds… it always has, and I don’t have a lot of things that sounds that way to me. I love that song.

Practising Rachmaninoff which turned into a kind of focused improv exercise— a bit noodling but with a specific technical intention…

today i came across this book that a cousin of mine (3x removed) wrote. i've seen some of his other stuff, but this little elementary introduction to variational problems is new to me🙂. my grandmother knew him in her childhood and he used to show her math stuff for fun.

Will keep updating this. Might be interesting to compare what I’m posting in about a month or so from now to what I’m posting these days. exciting and fun for me to do this #human #learning
Next day. Another section. Played through this ~50x, in different rhythms, hands separate, together,different articulations. All at 68 beats/min. Tmrw: same at 72 bpm. Can feel myself finally learning parts of this I never properly learned before. Would already be able to play much faster if I tried

Practise 101: super slow metronome (it will go about 3 times faster than this, which is quite fast), and playing in rhythms (allows finding micro-moments to relax, among other benefits). At the beginning you might not hear metronome well because the notes overlap exactly with it, Ie accurate.

Fun pro tip: when practising this Rachmaninoff prelude, put the metronome on 2 and 4. Some of the stuff got a little messhy here but it was worth it this way…

Previous video was practising. This one is just playing a little, just following wherever it feels nice to go.

Gonna post practise videos: carefully structured #exercises I make up, to teach myself new stuff. Here’s a tricky passage from #Rachmaninoff. I set metronome to a 2-3 clave rhythm, then i snap on 1 & 3, then i #syncopate & add bass as a tumbao, and syncopate RH & add as #Afro-Cuban montuno. #fun

When can we use generator G, trained on a dataset X, to produce new data X', s.t. training S on X' outperforms training S on X? (see great discussion & articulation of this Q: x.com/phillip_isol... ).

Fun chatgpt use case: I generate code to make figs for ML exams. Here's a figure for intro ML where the Q is to match optimizer path with parameters/description (e.g. step size, etc). Contours are from a GMM, so it's easy for me to control the shapes. Red line shows actual GD path. It took minutes.
