    Differentiating
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the challenge of differentiating a spline created from four data points. The user, Karin, expresses difficulty in using built-in functions like fntlr and fnder for differentiation. A suggestion is made to avoid relying on these functions and instead utilize a finite difference scheme for manual differentiation. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding numerical methods for solving such problems, particularly when built-in tools are not effective.

Hello
I have made a simple spline(x,y) of 4 datapoints and I want to differentiate it.
I can't get it to work; I have tried fntlr, fnder ect.

Can anyone help?

Have you tried shouting at it?


What program are you using? Don't bother with built in functions, just use a finite different scheme and find it yourself. Are you familiar with those?
 
This week, I saw a documentary done by the French called Les sacrifiés de l'IA, which was presented by a Canadian show Enquête. If you understand French I recommend it. Very eye-opening. I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South. There is also an interview with Milagros Miceli (appearing in both documentaries) on Youtube: I also found a powerpoint presentation by the economist Uma Rani (appearing in the French documentary), AI...
