Sourced articles like these are good and further proof that Israel is a psychopathic state and society. But what's odd is to depict is as "surprising" or even shocking when the same state has been carpet bombing…
It's not even some "forgotten AI technique" (sigh...). It's been a hot topic for the last 5 years. Used a lot with Variational Auto-encoders, etc. Such a bad journalism.
Behind this rhetorically articulated question, there is a simplistic view of content generation and consumption. First off, if you use LLMs, you are _constantly_ reading stuff nobody else bothered to answer you. So,…
Hey, I really enjoyed reading your post. It's straight to the point, the list is very rich and well illustrated with examples. I have been coding in python for the last 20 years and I nowadays rarely like reading these…
As Sara Hooker discussed in her paper https://www.cell.com/patterns/fulltext/S2666-3899(21)00061-1..., bias goes way beyond data.
Many thanks! For the record, there is another useful tool in the same vein, that packs a repo to be given to an LLM https://github.com/yamadashy/repomix.
Hi Simon, just read your blog post, thanks for the wrap-up. Just curious, what did you use to make Gemini look at all of your codebase, Aider, something else?
Again. This. is. not. Open-source. At best, open-weights. Clickbait 100%.
On the contrary, ArXiv is for pre-prints, i.e. not (yet) peer-reviewed. Off the top of the my head, it was initially used by physicists who often have huge collaborations and long reviewing time. Then the ML community…
In any serious discipline, ranging from philosophy to mathematics, precision is a requirement. Here, "woke" is everything but precise. It's an umbrella term that the right uses with bad faith to discard any form of…
It's probably an unrelated post (apologies in advance) but I wanted to shoutout to the Marimo (https://marimo.io), it's the only Jupyter alternative that really got me excited, it's like Streamlit and Jupyter had a kid…
Great comments and insights. Thanks to everybody for being constructive. I am also going through the same situation, but in Europe. Despite having a PhD in Machine Learning, somehow I cannot even get to the interviews.…
I almost believed it was a trick to generate labelled data to train AI systems down the line
Precision: « pre-training data is exhausted » everyone has been saying that for a while now. The graph plotting body mass against brain mass… what does it say exactly? (where is the link to the prior point on data?). I…
I’ll take the risk of hurting the groupies here. But I have a genuine question: what did you learn from this talk? Like… really… what was new? or potentially useful? or insightful perhaps? I really don’t want to sound…
This is a very partial view. A good number of people, including American democrats were disgusted by his unwavering support to the current genocide in Gaza. Many believe he could have stopped it with a phone call and…
Genuine question, is it a property of software design only? Think about construction, for any change in the architecture, one has to demolish stuff and make a mess. I'd argue, that's a general property of change.
So annoying to have articles not point to the original paper.
Worth mentioning another nice initiative https://www.echopen.com/ it’s from Paris and it has been incubated by the hospitals of Paris themselves, first as an open-source project. Disclaimer: I was among the early…
I'm always baffled to see him invited over and over... what is his track record? Since when he is an ML expert? What about holding him accountable for his wrong "predictions" (my favorite…
Sad they do not allow to use a custom OpenAI host address, so one can use a local LLM instead (https://ollama.com/blog/openai-compatibility).
Just try it out before interpreting their vision (which I totally ignored up until now). It is simply a nice system based on your local markdown files, allowing to easily cross-link notes. It is opinionated but I like…
Absolutely. Another less thought of aspect is simply power consumption and hence ecology. Running so many remote servers for movings and shows one already have at home is absurd I find.
I truly wonder. Why is Apple doing that? If I'm not mistaken, it is a small niche in terms of revenue. My hypothesis is that this is perhaps a new approach for marketing: find hobbies that correlate the most with the…
So many concerns about this one... - what is the metric exactly? - what does 90% mean, is it bad or good? That depends on the baseline and the prior distributions. - on what dataset is the 90% computed? On past crimes?…
