So, L1 is just the sum of weights? That's interesting!

I believe the correct answer is A, since L2 is indeed the sum of the squares of the weights. I remember that from our last review session!

I feel like I might confuse L1 and L2. I think L2 is about squaring the weights, but I can't recall the exact details.

I remember practicing a question where L1 led to sparse solutions, but I’m not sure if that’s the main difference.

I think L1 regularization is the sum of the absolute values of the weights, while L2 is the sum of the squares. I hope I remember that correctly!

Wait, I'm confused. Aren't some of these tools also used in quality assurance? I'll need to double-check my understanding of the differences between quality control and quality assurance.

Regularization, the secret sauce of machine learning. I wonder if there's a version called L3 that's just the sum of the cubes. That would really spice things up!

Ah, the age-old L1 vs L2 conundrum. I feel like I should know this, but my brain is just not cooperating today. Maybe I need to do some more regularization of my own mental processes.
