Latest update (11-12 11:17): Adaptive Data launches Expand to turn 10 data points into 100K

Overview: Adaptive Data introduces Expand, a feature that grows a small dataset into a training-ready set. Sara Hooker says Expand samples existing examples and matches their topics and domains rather than adding generic data, and that it can take 20 data points to a 100K training set in hours. A second post by Hooker gives the starting size as 10 data points. The two posts differ on that figure, and neither includes independent testing of the output quality.
