A nice thing they did at the conference last night was to prepare takeaway boxes from dinner and offer them to anyone who was leaving ("anti gaspillage")

Just talked with a researcher who studies AI regulation, esp. how Europe compares to the rest of the world.
He said that Japan recently published their AI Act, and that there’s no penalty for violations, just naming and shaming.
Apparently, that’s enough for Japan

Many people (me included) are seeing Invalid Notebook messages on GitHub lately, so I wrote down all the solutions (workarounds) that worked for me in this gist

A math/physics problem: ⛷️
You ski down a slope and want to to gain speed. There's a little "hill" coming up, and you need to decide whether to continue on your steady slope or ski up the hill, to accelerate more on the way down the steeper slope >>

If the LLM wrote a function, would you let the LLM write the unit tests as well or write them yourself?

In a few years AI will replace us all, and the only remaining engineers will still be trying to solve writing a mixed left-to-right & right-to-left messages

I created a little Colab notebook showing how to using multiple virtual environments in a single notebook.
If there's a better way to do it, I'll be happy to learn

Next week we're launching a collaborative annotation effort to build a big multilingual dataset, so you can have high-quality data in your language.
We are really close to getting leads for 100 languages! Can you help us cover the remaining 200?
