Juan Luis@pydataamsterdam Listening to @adrin describe in all detail how `pickle` can be exploited 😁
Ana Chaloska “To One-Hot or Not: A guide to feature encoding and when to use what” is completely full!
James, you and I know this is not true 😈
The one an only James Powell @dontusethsicode with “the most boring talk title in only three words”
Spotting what I call the "Jim Downling classification of data pipelines" in this promising talk by Hopsworks
@pydataamsterdam So excited to see the Thomas Wolf and more from the Hugging Face 🤗 giving a promising closing keynote! Just this Monday I was working with some colleagues on a HF + @kedro integration that hopefully will go open source soon.
"2000+ models in the Hub are private"
@pydataamsterdam "Choice of training data is the most important [part] of an LLM!"
Data quality improvements "can be equivalent to a 2x-3x increase in size"
Impressive results from Hugging Face: proper filtering of web data can match or exceed performance of commercial models trained on highly curated datasets.

@pydataamsterdam Thomas kind of dodged my question on the enforceability of OpenRAIL 😇 so happy that they exist anyway, it's a conversation we need to have.
(RAIL = Responsible AI Licenses)
Last day of #PyDataAmsterdam2023: the mighty @koaning giving the final keynote: Natural Intelligence is All You Need
@pydataamsterdam @koaning This is weird but I'm crying. @koaning's keynote resonated with me so damn much for many reasons. I've often reflected about programming as a form of creative expression and how we coders have an underused superpower, and Vincent eloquently articulated so many good examples of this. Don't miss the recording when it's out.
After a bit of a break, now @ritchie46 will tell us about Polars expressions in depth!
And last talk of the day: "Using AI to make Amsterdam greener, safer and more accessible"
@pydataamsterdam #PyDataAmsterdam2023 coming to an end. I'm logging off from here already - had an *amazing* time, and will definitely try to attend again in coming years. See you soon #PyData family!
Vincent D. Warmerdam@astrojuanlu Thanks for the kind words!
Richard 🔶UK #RejoinEU@astrojuanlu @pydataamsterdam @koaning thought provoking title reminiscent of John Lennon, a call to love, and power to the people. Was it technical or AI ethics?
@rpin42 @pydataamsterdam @koaning Neither 😊 It was a call for allowing ourselves to doubt and be creative about the way we solve technical problems and how we use our tools, so that we can come up with better solutions, be sure we're solving the right problem, and enjoy the process much more. With a couple of live demos showcasing some cool Explosion.ai open source projects.
