1. Now that China is cutting economic ties, new research on why China opted for technological self-reliance. The good stuff discussed below is down to my co-authors rather than me - but it _is_ good stuff. We have lots of NLP data that helps us map out China's debates about technological dependence.
Driven to Self-Reliance: Technological Interdependence and the Chinese Innovation Ecosystem
Abstract. States face a dilemma on how to balance gains from technological advancement with the risks of dependence. Technology is central to government ob

Cell contamination (idk what to call it: when you use a variable from another old cell by accident, especially when you thought you deleted or redefined it in your new cell) is such a huge footgun that it makes me incredibly nervous to use notebooks for anything non-trivial.

Microsoft just released a tool that lets you convert Office files to Markdown. Never thought I'd see the day.

Google also added Markdown export to Google Docs a few months ago.

Here is in exclusivity the first demo of Pleias knowledge retrieval model: SPQR·LLM. The first ever LLM stuck in the antiquity, using only Latin and Greek sources written from 450 bc to 400 ad.

this time I am delighted to remind you that linguists are not kidding when we say that your language ability enables you to understand sentences that have never before been uttered
people say “you need to start living in the real world” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and lightning bugs and ginger beer and starlight and sea coasts and Renoir paintings and Rachmaninoff’s piano concertos and fog banks and foxes playing in snow.

What is indirect annotation?

- human makes an annotation guideline
- LLMs used to annotate data
- fine-tune a model like BERT

Referencing "LLMaAA: Making Large Language Models as Active Annotators" which uses KNN-based few-shots, multiple training cycles, and active learning.

god I love the fact that we're on a platform with scientists on it again I get to log on and be like EFF YEAH ANGLERFISH DIVERSITY (a thing I have never thought about before)
Our big collaboration on anglerfish diversity is out today in @natureecoevo.bsky.social. THREAD PART 1

Apprendre que BERT, l'un des modèles de langages les plus populaires, dispose d'une version française qui s'appelle CamemBERT me rend - je crois - un peu plus heureux.

Meet Tülu 3, a set of state-of-the-art instruct models with fully open data, eval code, and training algorithms.
We invented new methods for fine-tuning language models with RL and built upon best practices to scale synthetic instruction and preference data.
