Anya is trying to sell to a customer that creates Federated Learning software. She's sees the definition on their website, but doesn't understand it. In the past, she would copy it, open a new tab, do a Google search, pick some links, and try to find what she needed. Now with Ask Steve, she can just select the text, right-click, and ask Steve to explain it, translate it, convert it, analyze it, and more.

  1. Here's the explanation that Anya saw:

    Federated learning is a sub-field of machine learning focusing on settings in which multiple entities (often referred to as clients) collaboratively train a model while ensuring that their data remains decentralized. This stands in contrast to machine learning settings in which data is centrally stored. One of the primary defining characteristics of federated learning is data heterogeneity. Due to the decentralized nature of the clients' data, there is no guarantee that data samples held by each client are independently and identically distributed.

  4. What else can you do? Anything! This time pick "ONE-TIME REQUEST" from the menu and you can type in what you want Steve to do. Try typing what types of applications is this useful for? or limerick and see what happens.
