SUMMARY:SD Founders Surf - May 15\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:Founders\, investors\, and those who support them\, meet at “Pipes.” \nWe meet at San Elijo State Beach\, northern-most part of the north parking lot near the benches and shower. If you see stairs or you see parking lot north of you\, keep going north! The pin on the map is about 100 yards south of where we’ll meet. Easiest to park for free on Coast Hwy. See the pic below. We meet at those picnic tables. \nBring an inspiring quote of the day!

SUMMARY:Cool People\, Hot Drinks
DESCRIPTION:Do you see “AI” in the words “Cool”\, “People”\, “Coffee”\, or “Meetup”? Exactly! \nBecause sometimes the best place to talk doesn’t need to be artificial or intelligent. It’s over coffee with real people. \nJoin us on May 15th for a Coffee Meetup at Mixed Grounds with San Diego creatives. Designers\, marketers\, writers\, AI folks\, students\, and people who are still figuring it out. \nWe’ll talk about what’s on your mind: projects\, ideas\, work\, life\, balance\, or any topic with or without the letters A and I. \nFriday\, May 15\n8:30 am – 10:00 am\nMixed Grounds\, North Park\n4555 30th Street\, San Diego\, CA 92116 \nCome for the coffee. Stay for the conversations that no algorithm can generate.

SUMMARY:Optimization for ML and AI Seminar: A non-equilibrium phase transition with broken ergodicity leads to double descent and benign overfitting in machine learning
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The remarkable ability of modern neural networks to generalize improves with increasing network capacity\, even when the number of model parameters or effective degrees of freedom exceeds the number of training data points. This phenomenon is all the more surprising given that generalization error diverges when the number of model parameters approaches a critical value from below. Here we use dynamical mean field theory to show\, in a simple setting of linear regression\, that this so-called “double descent” behavior is the outcome of a phase transition in the stochastic field theory describing the training process. We calculate the critical exponents and scaling function of the double descent phase transition\, and show that it is marked by a breakdown of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem associated with broken ergodicity. The corresponding response function has the same functional form as the simple London model of the superconducting transition\, with the rigidity of the wave function corresponding to the neural network’s ability to generalize accurately. Our results are distinct from earlier work\, because we calculate the time-dependence specifically\, not just the equilibrium solutions. This is what enables us to identify the origin of the emergent behavior.

Information and registration is at:\nhttp://EEspeaker.com \nInfo to join this EE business networking meeting:\n#######################################\nhttp://nroi.us/eeonline\n(the shortlink above will remain updated with the current Zoom link) \nPasscode: 7772021\n####################################### \n\nLimited to the first 100 participants.\nWe also cross-livestream through the EE FB Group. No participant limit on FB\, however it’s view-only mode. Please feel free to leave your contact info in the comments of the livestream when listening along:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/networkingeesd\n\nThe meetings (including chat) will be recorded to the cloud – and made available temporarily afterwards. Information on recordings will be provided to attendees on Zoom and Facebook.\nExceptional Entrepreneurs was founded November\, 2008 in San Diego\, California USA by David & Gina Demangos. Since then\, “EE” has become one of the USA’s largest business networking organizations\, due to the Demangos’ vision and leadership to provide “exceptional” opportunities for connecting local professionals. David Demangos is an eXp real estate agent in San Diego. For more information on David\, please see: Awesome San Diego Real Estate:\nhttp://www.awesomesandiegorealestate.com \n“Effective networking is a learned skill. Exceptional Entrepreneurs are highly trusted professionals who share ideas and know that in order to receive you must first be willing to give.” – David Demangos \nThank you for your continuing support of “EE”!
