"Kinoveebi Jututuba" on taskuhääling, kus kino Artis programmijuht Ra Ragnar Novod, Forum Cinemas programmispetsialist Henryk Johan Novod ning kultuurikriitik Raiko Puust võtavad igal nädalal läbi uued filmid ja seriaalid ning ka olulisemad filmiuudised. Alates tänasest on kinodes uus Eesti film „Tulilind”, kutsusime saatesse režissöör Peeter Rebase ja peaosalise ning kaasstsenaristi Tom Priori. Esilinastused on meil juba toimunud, arvustused on ilmunud, seega esmamuljeid on võimalik igal poolt lugeda, kuid siin oli eesmärk minna veidi sügavamale ja detailsemaks. Kuna Tom Prioril polnud stuudios palju aega, siis jagamise saate kaheks – esimene osa on inglise keeles ning peale Tomi lahkumist teeme edasi eesti keeles. Sisukord: 0:00 Peeter Rebase ja Tom Priori intervjuu (inglise keeles) 19:26 Intervjuu Peeter Rebasega (eesti keeles) Saates uurime tegijate käest nende emotsioonide kohta filmi kodumaal näidata ning arutame küsimusi, et kas nad planeerisid filmis muuta peategelane Romaniks, sest ta on keerukam karakter kui Sergei. Kuna film põhineb tõsielulistel ainetel, tahtsime teada, et kas iga moment on tegelikult juhtunud või on nad midagi kunstilistel kaalutustel midagi juurde lisanud. Siit saime teada, et filmi teises pooles kui kaks meest elavad koos ühes korteris, siis tollel ajal keegi ei kahtlustanud midagi, sest sõbrad lihtsalt elavad koos. Filmis on palju asju, millest minnakse kiiresti üle, seega uurime, et miks midagi välja lõigati ja kas on olemas ka mõni teine pikem ja detailsem versioon. Arutame filmi 4,2 miljoni euro suuruse eelarve üle ning kas see summa oli koheselt ka plaanis. Muidugi ei saa vältida Covid-19 muresid ning kuidas juhtus nende idee linastuda koos internetis ja kinos. „Muidugi tavalisel ajal eelistame kino, kuid praegusel ajal on see mõistlikum lahendus.” Tom räägib enda kõige raskemast stseenist filmi juures ning kuidas ta selle jaoks ette valmistas. „Ma teadsin filmimise ajaks iga stseeni nii hästi, et see kõik tundus juba loomulik. Ma harjutasin ja hoidsin asju sees kuni tuli moment kõik välja lasta.”. Tom lisab, et leina näitamise juures nad arutasid küsimuse üle: kuidas võivad erinevad inimesed reageerida kõige lähedasema inimese surma peale. Vastuseks võib olla ka lihtne „Oh!”. Aktsentide ja keele valiku kohta saime teada, et inglise keel oli ainukene valik puhtalt leviku ja võimaliku kassaedu pärast. Aktsentide juures kasutati treenerit, kes inglise keele rääkijad viis vene keele poole ja teised rohkem inglise keele poole, kohtudes kusagil keskel. Peeter Rebane räägib improvisatsioonist, kus valitud asukohad inspireerisid parimaid mõtteid visuaalselt ilusa filmi juures ning kiidab Mait Mäekivi oskuseid. Räägime „Tulilind” alugusest – kuidas jõudis lugu Peetri kätte ning kuidas Peeter kohtus Tom Prioriga, millest tegelikult kõik algas. Tänaseks on film enne meid linastunud ainult festivalidel ning on juba teinud 29 ja 18 festivali on veel ees. Meie küsimuse peale, et kuidas Venemaa kriitikud loo vastu võtsid, saime teada, et seal tehti 93 arvustust, millest 92 negatiivsed. „Siin tuleb eristada, kuidas nad inimesena vastu võtsid ja kuidas nad kirjutasid. Meil oli tükk tegemist, et saada inimesi üldse kirjutama. Seal ei julgeta teemat puudutada.”. Mosvas toimunud festivalil oli 147 teost, millest ainult 2 olid keelatud armastusest ning teine eemaldati enne kui jõudis üldse linastuda. Ideele, et kas see kõik oli seda väärt, Peeter Rebane vastab: „Peale esilinastust fuajees tuli üks ema minu juurde koos oma keskkooliealise pojaga ja....ja see oli seda väärt!”. Täispikas intervjuus räägime huumorist, Eesti teistest näitlejatest, plaanidest edasi levitada ja palju palju muud!

Being able to speak and understand a foreign language is a lot like having a superpower. It gives you an ability that is often very useful and impressive. But like anything that is great to have, it doesn’t come easy. If you have ever tried to learn a new language, the process can be exhausting and difficult at times. Fortunately, we live in a world where technology can help speed up this process. Now, with the help of machine learning, we can use technology to accelerate or even gamify the learning experience, making it more efficient and enjoyable in the process. My guest today to talk about this topic is an Ex-CERN Particle Physicist turned language learning expert who used AI to more efficiently learn French during his time working at the institute. He is now the CEO of Lingvist, an adaptive language-learning platform that uses the same technology he used to learn French. Mait Müntel. In this episode, Mait shares with us how he created this technology, why it is so effective, and advice he has for anyone who wants to learn a new language.

Delfi eriolukorra erisaates vastasid Selveri äriarvestuse juht Kristjan Anderson ja Coopi e-kaubanduse juht Mait Mäesalu küsimustele, mis puudutavad nende e-poodesse kriisiajal tekkinud hiiglaslikke järjekordi. Kas on üldse lootust, et need lähiajal lühenevad ja klientidel tekib üldse võimalus e-toidupoodidele normaalselt ligi pääseda?

I recently read a fascinating story about a particle physicist turned co-founder of an AI-based language learning app called Lingvist and felt compelled to find out more. Mait Müntel was part of the Higgs boson discovery team at CERN, where he was frustrated by being unable to speak French fluently. In typical scientist fashion, he decided to look at the French language as a mathematical problem that could be fun to solve-- and soon used CERN's machine learning capabilities to run his language-as-math hypothesis, then began building out software to test it. Within a year, he was able to study French for 200 hours, then pass a high school French test. So he left to start Lingvist, a company that uses AI to create personalized language experiences, with 1.4 million language users. Mait joins me on Tech Talks Daily to chat about how machine learning is significantly accelerating the language learning process, and how important scientific theories have been to Lingvist's success. I learn how he got the idea to approach language learning like a mathematical challenge and decided to build his own solution instead. Mait's prototype drew upon the machine learning work he had used while searching for the boson particle, along with the basics of language statistics and cognitive science theory. After learning with a homemade prototype for 200 hours, he put himself to the test and took a high-school-level French exam, which he passed with a strong score. That was the seed from which Lingvist took root. Mait took those principles he had used to teach himself and started developing them for anyone to use, with the goal of significantly accelerating language learning and reducing inefficiency in the learning process. They built the proof of concept after receiving the Prototron Grant, a seed-funding initiative for budding startups, in March 2013. In 2014 Lingvist was selected from a pool of over 1,500 applicants to participate in the world-renowned TechStars London accelerator program. Today, Lingvist is an eclectic team of more than 40 languages and technology lovers hailing from around the world. Members include alumni from Skype and CERN, and specialists in areas ranging from AI and computational linguistics to UX and product development.

On this episode I chat to Lingvist founder Mait Müntel, who was part of the Higgs-Boson discovery team at CERN. His big passion is furthering human learning using machine learning, artificial intelligence, and the power of spaced repetition. Show Links: Lingvist - Mait's company ==============

Mait Müntel is the CEO of Lingvist and was part of the team at CERN who discovered the Higgs Boson. He is also a lovely and quite hilarious individual. Listen to this podcast if you want a focused 40 minutes of laughing and learning in one place. He gives top insights into the world of science, business and learning with great ideas and heart-warming stories. TOPS TIPS FOCUS Focus in business and life is essential to success. Focus on what you can change. Don’t waste time worrying about things you can’t change. And keep a relentless focus on the thing you are doing and make it the most important thing above all else. SHOW DEDICATION TO YOUR BUSINESS Mait took a business loan to fund the company initially, this showed that he was keen to make it happen at great personnel risk with his house on the line. Proving to investors that you are really committed to making your idea a success is essential and if they know you are committed to it and are taking risks they can feel more safe with risking their own money. ENJOY THE RIDE Mait’s story about hiking and the pains you go through in a hike ends up delivering such a satisfying feeling at the end. When you realise that ‘future you’ will look back at ‘present you’ and the situation you are in as a really cool thing. You can enjoy the ride a lot more when you are aware that your problems are moments you will overcome and look back with fondness then you can appreciate and enjoy the moment itself much more, rather than letting it get you down.
