Interesting question! Computer vision system diagrams seem mainly colored boxes with arrows (?)

The new generation of computer vision researchers might think that way about the GPUs used by Alex Krizhevsky 😉.

Are the original GPUs still around somewhere? 🤔

I'd be very interested in the longer piece.

Because.. In my opinion, at the moment this thread is too much about publicly shaming people, and not enough about arguing against the claims made.

Amazing work! This reminds me of adversarial attacks (optimize the confidence) but also of DeepDream (maximize confidence).

Also the Deep Image Prior comes to mind; ie: the bias in the architecture 🙂

If I may ask, for the brain, do you think the priors are learned? Or hard-coded (evolution)? 🤔

We created metascience for ML, metascienceforml.github.io also for PhD candidates, and a MSc course 🙂
Metascience for Machine Learning
A repository for collecting information about Metascience for machine learning.

Ben Recht @beenwrekt.bsky.social has a brilliant blog discussing, among other things, how significant those stats are 🙂.

Classicism, as measured in years: max Before Alexnet (or min After Marr) 😉
October 22, 2025 at 10:12 AM
How so? 🤔.

And how do we do Classical time keeping (?)

- 10 years BA (Before Alexnet)
- 10 years AM (After Marr)
- ... (?)

MNIST suddenly became the real world 😉

Yann knew this all along!

- Perdido street station
- Heinlein's books, if you haven't already 🙂
- Daemon
- Dragon's egg (yes, scifi, not fantasy 🙂)

Peter Watts I also recommend 🙂

- Speed of dark (related to Flowers for Algernon)
- long way to a small angry planet
- Klara and the Sun
- A psalm for the wild built, loved this robot tale
- Anathem, starts slow, but ends 🤯
- A wild sheep chase, by Murakami
- The science of Discworld, I liked a lot, albeit "science fantasy" 😊

😂 I'll need to come over during cvpr, and practice that! 😊

I always pronounce Lenet with a French accent in my Deep Learning MSc course (400 students). And I tell them it's mandatory for the exam...😊

How do I pronounce CVPR with a French accent? 🤔
October 18, 2025 at 6:50 PM
Oh, but that pic brought me a whole different feeling of MO, though 😊

Ik denk dat een vd problemen is dat die obscure journals het open access publicatie geld opstrijken.

Een ander probleem kan misschien zijn dat BS nu ineens legit lijkt voor niet-vakgenoten (?).

(Ps: groot fan van uw werk 🙂)

*Machine learning theory needs a reformation, because our advice is not just ignored, but demonstrably, actively harmful.*

Wonderfully quotable!

(I meant more that this effect seems to be related a bit to Murphy's law 🙂, as a joke 😊. Not sure if Murphy's law is named after Murphy, that would kinda invalidate my own point 😂)

Heroes! 😊

Murphy? 🤔
