Agenda & minutes:
- Welcome to the 3rd meeting!
- Any updates/news/inputs/comments?
- VW: We should think about recording the meetings.
- Organizational issues
- This agenda and minutes is on a blog, https://AIntwhatitusedtobe.blogspot.com. You can add comments if you like, just like for many other blogs.
- This meeting will be automatically ended by Zoom after 40 min.
- Continuing the discussion in another meeting afterward has been suggested. This is something to consider in the future.
- Future meetings: The consensus is that each meeting focus on a presentation by someone about something. (This is instead of trying to cover a bunch of smaller things in each meeting.)
- Today, Jan. 28: VK will present his current work.
- Feb. 4 meeting: Tentatively, one of MM's students will present.
- Feb. 11 meeting: We will focus on "Attention is All You Need" and read and discuss it together.
- Feb. 18 meeting: Any ideas/requests?
- Readings that have been suggested
- "Deep learning—a first meta-survey of selected reviews across scientific disciplines, their commonalities, challenges and research impact," https://peerj.com/articles/cs-773.
- We read the abstract last time and scanned more this time. It is not clear whether we should continue reading material from it. Any opinions/thoughts/comments?
- "Attention is all you need," https://proceedings.neurips.cc/paper/2017/file/3f5ee243547dee91fbd053c1c4a845aa-Paper.pdf
- We read the first sentence of the abstract and discussed it quite a bit. This is a classic and important paper. We will devote a future meeting to reading through more of it, bit by bit.
- Some quantum computing references we could read as needed (from VW):
- - Quantum crossing threshold (free): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-04273-w
- Crossing threshold in silicon: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-04182-y
- Three-qubit donor processor in Si: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-04292-7
- VW has "a Python Quick Reference that runs in Google collab that I can go over for real time ML demonstrations." He presented but did not finish last time, and we didn't get to it this time, so we could devote a future meeting to it.

Agenda:
- Organizational issues? Welcome to the first meeting!
- PT suggests a paper to read: Deep learning—a first meta-survey of selected reviews across scientific disciplines, their commonalities, challenges and research impact, https://peerj.com/articles/cs-773/#. We read the abstract and will read more next time.
- Paper: Attention is all you need
- https://proceedings.neurips.cc/paper/2017/file/3f5ee243547dee91fbd053c1c4a845aa-Paper.pdf
- We plan to start on this paper as well next time.
- VW has "a Python Quick Reference that runs in Google collab that I can go over for real time ML demonstrations." He presented but did not finish so we will continue next time.
- No other people provided updates but next time it is an option.
