I have to do some research. I'm primarily commenting on this to keep track of it.

Ultimately I want technology to be my better half. Fill in my gaps if you will. I want my vitals linked to a server, a "CRON" job monitoring my sleep/wake cycles. I've been doing some scraping. I'd like to develop my own thing runs "autonomously and grows"

Gotta read, between this and machine learning. Gotta focus though. Not sure when I'll come back to this. Thanks for posting this.




After reading that article and what I just described, it does not seem like neural networks is what I'm after. Still it is something to use.

I wanted to write a "quick search" scrape pages related to a search (though last time I checked, the Google API wasn't available anymore where you could search Google back end.)

Anyway. Maybe a source like Wikipedia. Still parsing words and assigning them values...

That part about using ANNs for finding regularities in patterns. That sounds interesting. It seems many successes came by determining the next step in some form of evolution whether it was a product or service. Blockbuster to Netflix, Blackberry's to iPhones, etc... Maybe look at something like that.

At any rate, gotta read. That was quite informative. The whole thing of "not knowing what it actually does" is pretty nuts too. Give it data and watch it go!
