My work days feel more and more like people outwardly employing Pascal’s Wager when talking about genAI, LLMs, agentic whatever fake-AI silliness. Saying the words for their bosses but not feeling it otherwise.
PAIscal’s Wager? Pascal’s wAIger? PascaLLM’s wager?
„It’s a path puzzle. You draw a path that enters the grid at the top and exits at the bottom. Along the way, there are 50 sections, each following a different ruleset. Consecutive sections overlap by a few rows, creating short hybrid sections in between.”
This is amazing! The printable PDF-version is 17 pages! 🤯

Let me translate that: Musks boosts the value of xAI by integrating it into SpaceX and claiming that the future of AI is in space, in two years. That’s the same Musk who is flying to Mars „real soon now“.

Abstract: We present an in-depth analysis on how to build and train neural networks to estimate the spatial distribution of scattered radiation fields for radiation protection dosimetry in medical radiation fields, such as those found in Interventional Radiology and Cardiology. Therefore, we present three different synthetically generated datasets with increasing complexity for training, using a Monte-Carlo Simulation application based on Geant4. On those datasets, we evaluate convolutional and fully connected architectures of neural networks to demonstrate which design decisions work well for reconstructing the fluence and spectra distributions over the spatial domain of such radiation fields. All used datasets as well as our training pipeline are published as open source in separate repositories.
