CAN AI SYSTEMS develop MUSCLE MEMORY?

So imagine an AI algorithm is like a little kid learning animals. Shown many pig pictures, the AI learns to recognise pigs.

But if not exposed to pigs for a while, it forgets their unique features. The AI can't retrieve memories from earlier like humans can because the knowledge is not deeply ingrained through true understanding. Instead, it relies on temporary pattern associations from its training data. Without regular re-exposure, those fragile links fade away.

AI’s Biased Neural Networks For The 5 Year Old Learner In Me 

The 'network' part comes from how it's all connected, much like how our brain has different parts that work together.

So, in essence, a neural network is like a mini-brain that learns from lots of examples to understand and recognise things, playing a significant role in how AI works.

The sorting hat bias: Tidying UP Open source data for AI Startups

Imagine embarking on an AI startup journey and depending on open source data as if it were your own magical Sorting Hat. It's 'super smart', no question, but it's also 'super biased', tending to categorise data into its preferred 'houses'. Much like the hat that has a weakness for placing too many wizards in Gryffindor, our open source data tends to favour certain kinds of data over others. And there lies our predicament.
