Taxonomy of principal distances and divergences v/ Frank Nielsen.

We define duo Bregman divergences, duo Fenchel-Young divergences, duo Jensen divergences. We show how those divergences occur naturally when calculating the Kullback-Leibler divergence and skew Bhattacharyya distances between densities belonging to nested exponential families. We report the KLD between truncated normal distributions as a duo Bregman divergence. Demo code:

Microsoft, Alphabet, OpenAI, Nvidia CEOs join US advisory board to advise on protecting critical infrastructure from AI threats. Board aims to prevent AI-related disruptions to national security and public safety.

Assessing AI risks in the context of their use, rather than as inherent in the technologies themselves, leads to smarter and safer implementations.

The number of quantum computing use cases is growing. Using a combination of quantum computing technologies might propel companies looking to stay ahead of the curve in their respective industries.
