What are weights and biases in AI?

June 12, 2023 

For the answer to this question check our AI Wiki source. 

Weights and biases are parameters added to regulate the signal from one neuron to another in artificial intelligence (AI) neural networks.

AI neural networks are meant to replicate to some extent the neural operations of the human brain. In human brains, neurons send signals to other neurons to activate mental associations that generate learning. Likewise, in AI neural networks neuromorphic chips called also "neurons" receive input and communicate signals to other layers of neurons to produce output. 

Weights regulate the importance of input variables within a signal. Important input should carry more weight into the signal than less important input. For example, let's assume that your AI model is calculating lifestyle habits that may correlate to good health. Variables include sleep, nutrition, exercise, meditation, relationships, income, etc. If sleep is more important than income, weights would be used to reflect that difference. Biases are added to influence output even in the absence of relative weights. For example, in the same health study is the person indicates yes to tobacco use, a bias may be added to reflect a health risk independent of the other input variables.

Weights and biases are added to the AI models during the training sessions by which machines learn to improve the accuracy of their predictions and results. You can become an AI programmer, or an AI trainer. This is an ever growing field. Think about it.

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...

The average price to earnings ratio in the "traditional" automotive industry (excluding Tesla, and also excluding Chinese car makers) is about 6.7. That is, while almost all car makers in the world trade at 7 times earnings in average, Tesla is trading at 110, which is 15 times the industry average.  Major Automakers (Excluding Tesla and Chinese car makers) ranked by P/E: Subaru Corporation (Ticker: 7270.T): 12.0 Suzuki Motor Corporation (Ticker: 7269.T): 10.0 Toyota Motor Corporation (Ticker: TM): 9.70 Isuzu Motors Limited (Ticker: 7202.T): 9.0 Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
