Prove It Without Revealing It: Exploring the Power of Zero-Knowledge Proofs in Data Science (Ep. 218)

In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of zero-knowledge proofs and their impact on data science. Zero-knowledge proofs allow one party to prove to another that they know a secret without revealing the secret itself. This powerful concept has numerous applications in data science, from ensuring data privacy and security, to facilitating secure transactions and identity verification. We explore the mechanics of zero-knowledge proofs, its real-world applications, and how it is revolutionizing the way we handle sensitive information. Join us as we uncover the secrets of zero-knowledge proofs and its impact on the future of data science.

Chatting with ChatGPT: Pros and Cons of Advanced Language AI (Ep. 215)

In this episode, I'll be discussing the capabilities and limitations of ChatGPT, an advanced language AI model. I'll go over its power to understand and respond to natural language, and its applications in tasks such as language translation and text summarization. However, I'll also touch on the challenges that still need to be overcome such as bias and data privacy concerns. Tune in for a comprehensive look at the current state of advanced language AI.

Autonomous cars cannot drive. Here is why. (Ep. 210)

If you think that the problem of self-driving cars has been solved, think twice.As a matter of fact, the problem of self-driving cars cannot be solved with the technical solutions that companies are currently considering. Don't get fooled by marketing and PR on social media. Whoever is telling you they solved the problem of driving a vehicle fully autonomously, they are lying.Here is why.
