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 revolut...

That deep learning alone is not sufficient to solve artificial general intelligence, is more and more accepted statement. Generalist agents have great properties that can overcome some of the limitations of single-task deep learning models. Be aware, we are still far from AGI, though. So what are generalist agents?
