Thread 'Use of AI (ML/DL) in Science'

We have many threads on AI, which are mostly AI/LLM, e.g,. ChatGPT, Claude, etc. It is important to draw a distinction between AI/LLM and AI/ML/DL, where ML - Machine Learning and DL = Deep Learning. AI is a broad technology; the AI/ML/DL is being developed to handle large data sets, and even seemingly disparate datasets to rapidly evaluated the data and determine the quantitative relationships in order to understand what those relationships (about the variaboles) mean. At the Harvard &...
