Perhaps still the best general purpose explainer of how an LLM works and the one I give to students. Here’s why I like it (short🧵): ig.ft.com/generative-ai/
Generative AI exists because of the transformer
The technology has resulted in a host of cutting-edge AI applications — but its real power lies beyond text generation

I'm so excited for this. As @ryancordell.bsky.social says, Dan Evans has done a terrific job, with the assistance of Ben Galewsky in Illinois computing. Thanks also to @dennmis.bsky.social and Freie Universität Berlin, who hosted the hackathon that gave us an additional push.
Soft launch on a Friday afternoon, but I’m too excited to wait—we finally have a new database providing search & download access to the Viral Texts Project’s "speculative bibliographies" of C19 newspaper reprinting
Huge thanks to iSchool PhD student Daniel Evans for making the impossible possible!

This looks like a fascinating way to teach an AI grad seminar—I’m particularly thinking about in my iSchool context—library/archival studies as a framework for AI
Now that the semester’s wound up, I wanted to share the readings Giulia Taurino and I and the students in our seminar on Artificial Intelligence as an Archival Science put together. We had a great time, they wrote some good papers, and hopefully this will be useful. github.com/dasmiq/cs718...
