Programming Languages
This programming language uses indentation to define code blocks.
What is Python?
This phenomenon occurs when AI models generate content that appears convincing but is factually incorrect.
What is hallucination?
This logical construct allows code to make decisions based on whether a condition is true or false.
What is a conditional? (or if-statement)
API stands for this.
What is Application Programming Interface?
The typical frequency at which DevDownload sessions occur.
What is every two weeks? (or every other Wednesday)
This language developed by Apple is used for iOS and macOS development.
What is Swift?
The company that developed Claude AI?
What is Anthropic?
This fundamental data structure stores elements in a sequential order and allows direct access to any element.
What is an array?
This version control system was created by Linus Torvalds.
What is Git?
This person initiated the DevDownload session series.
Who is Michael Siegert?
This language is renowned for statistical computing and data visualization.
What is R?
This term describes AI systems that can process multiple types of data like text, images, and audio.
What is multimodal AI?
This data structure operates on a Last-In-First-Out principle.
What is stack?
This practice involves releasing code to production in small, frequent batches rather than large releases.
What is continuous deployment? (or incremental delivery)
This Microsoft tool showcased in a recent DevDownload allows us to create custom agents.
What is Copilot Studio?
Microsoft created this language specifically for the .NET framework.
What is C#?
This AI training technique involves learning from vast amounts of unlabeled data.
What is self-supervised learning?
This search algorithm efficiently finds items in a sorted list by repeatedly dividing the search interval in half.
What is binary search?
This development methodology emphasizes delivering working software in short cycles, typically 2-4 weeks.
What is Scrum? (or Sprint development)
This recent DevDownload challenge combined fantasy role-playing elements with Cortex agent development.
What is the AI Dungeon Master – Cortex Agent Coding Challenge?
Mozilla developed this language designed for memory safety without garbage collection.
What is Rust?
This AI alignment technique uses human feedback to improve model outputs and reduce harmful responses.
What is RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback)?
This type of problem is believed to be impossible to solve efficiently on classical computers but potentially solvable on quantum computers.
What is an NP-hard problem?
This security vulnerability occurs when user input is not properly validated, allowing attackers to inject malicious code.
What is injection? (or SQL injection/XSS)
This is DevDownload's birthday.
What is March 13, 2025?
