"Knowing the right data is incredibly important, because it'll save you money, but predicting the impact of that data means that you don't have to do the training at all to even directionally know if it's going to work out, right?"

Jason Corso

"You can't understand and analyze an AI system in the way you can analyze open source software if you don't have access to the data."
