Great article. Responding to your text - "What other ML concepts would you like to see broken down into simple visuals?" ---- I am fascinated by one paper from Yoshua Bengio related to "Evolving Culture vs Local Minima" on the year 2012. It always fascinated me how "culture" increases our learning curve. I understood the basic concept but it's difficult to grasp the mathematical construct explained there. In case you are interested, you can add a post on that. I am seeing an interest in preserving culture through LLM as well. As an example, Rabindranath Tagore is one of the Noble Laurette who has written many songs, poems, short stories, etc. It has an unique style and a Bengali culture cannot be understood without him. He has written texts related to the emotions that can be felt by every human being on earth. But simply translating his texts into English means, it looses it's meaning entirely. You can write related concepts if you want.
You've just given me my next doodle inspiration! Bengio's "Evolving Culture vs Local Minima" paper is fascinating - especially how cultural transmission helps us escape optimization traps that lone learners get stuck in. I'll create a visual exploring how this connects to preserving cultural nuance (like Tagore's work) that gets lost in simplistic translations. The connection between cultural learning and modern AI is profound. Watch for this one next week!
