Happy #SpiritDay! Go purple to support LGBTQ youth. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

A message to the LGBTQ youth out there: 💜 You’re never alone. If you ever feel alone or isolated, know that you have a beautiful community waiting for you and fighting for you to have the rights and protections you deserve. 💜

asking for help: this morning I've seen a post promoting the release of a new, large, and curated dataset which *could* be used for LLM training and MT. What I remember is: it was a version 3 and it was the outcome of an EU funded project (and it was not OpenLLM Europe) - anyone?

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Paris-Berlin sleeper: low carbon, 2 years old, constantly full, but currently losing SNCF a few million EUR/yr

Intl Jet fuel tax exemptions are 80 years old and cost the EU 22 million EUR/yr for the Paris-Berlin route alone.

And you're cutting... the sleeper?

De nieuwe minister van OCW. Hij heeft les gegeven dus vindt zichzelf uiterst geschikt voor deze baan. Aangezien het vooral op de winkel passen wordt zou ervaring in de detailhandel waardevoller zijn geweest.

Interesting analogy with countering right-wing anti-climate narrative. To counter it need a positive narrative of our own, not just refute it. A bairer, cheaper, cleaner more profitable future with more jobs and more nature is hard to argue against.

what this means it that we don't have a good mental model of how different steps in the LLM generation process depend on each other, and what are the causal relations that make it tick. which in turn means that LLM's explanations might be "transparent", but also that we fail to interpret them.

the test is very simple: given an AI reasoning text broken into steps, we highlight one step as the target, and then ask you to identify the one-out-of-four preceding steps that we choose, which, if removed, will change the target step. turns out this is really hard.
