Логарифм для аналитика: где он спасает отчет, а где его ломает

AI‑driven hiring: я хотел лучше оценивать кандидатов, а ИИ начал оценивать меня

Но довольно быстро выяснилось, что самое неприятное и одновременно полезное оказалось не в ответах кандидата, а в моих собственных вопросах. ИИ р Read more

Разбираю проблему автономной нейросети

Рецепты построения по‑настоящему автономной нейросети регулярно всплывают в информационном поле. Чаще всего методы и способы совпадают независимо от авторов. Несмотря на то, что выглядят они оригинально, фактически, большая их часть формализованы с помощью LLM, а они, как мы знаем очень хорошо работают с имеющимися знаниями.В этой статье я проанализирую основные предлагаемые приёмы и ошибочность фундамента, на которых они базируются.
