Thrive, Andreessen Horowitz Head Fastest-Growing VC Firms

The biggest venture capital funds are getting even bigger. In the past three years, the top firms have raised billions of dollars—in some cases more than half the total amount they’ve raised in their lifetimes.

Take Thrive Capital, which in February said it had raised $10 billion in new funds. The backer of OpenAI and Stripe has raised roughly $18 billion since 2023—about 70% of the money it’s taken in since it raised its first institutional round in 2011, according to analysis of company disclosures and d

Казаться, а не быть. Как доступность входа в IT, накрутка опыта и ИИ повлияли на ценностные ориентиры новичков

Мода на то «вкат» в IT появилась задолго до пандемии и массового распространения удаленного формата работы. Я помню пасты на двачах и мемы про «300кк/наносек синьора-помидора» в 2016-2017 годах - уже тогда многие стремились попасть в эту сферу из-за высоких зарплат и относительно низкого порога входа. После распространения удалёнки, хайп вокруг вката вырос многократно: появилось ещё больше желающих работать, лёжа на шезлонге где-нибудь на Бали с ноутбуком на коленках и... Read more

Как магистратура по искусственному интеллекту научила меня лучше понимать котиков

Статья приурочена ко Всемирному дню кошекКогда я поступала в AI Talent Hub от ИТМО, я ожидала, что прокачаю свои навыки в Machine Learning и Data Science, т.е. научусь обучать модели, работать с нейросетями и оптимизировать функции потерь. Я не ожидала, что научусь лучше понимать естественный интеллект, себя и своих пушистых друзей. На первый взгляд, мне казалось, что между котиками и ИИ нет ничего общего.

Топ ошибок при генерации текстов и изображений с ИИ

Если вы хоть раз пробовали серьезно работать с ChatGPT или Midjourney, вы знаете это чувство легкого разочарования. Нет, не когда нейросеть тупит и пишет полный бред, это как раз нормально. А когда ты потратил 40 минут, подобрал идеальные формулировки, а на выходе получил какую-то чушь с тремя левыми руками и текстом, где Россия написал через два Ы.Самое обидное, что в 90% случаев проблема не в нейросети, а в нас.
