If you're a grad student or an undergrad interested in research I need to you listen to me very carefully.
You cannot learn to write good research papers if you do not read good research papers.
Stop asking LLMs to summarize papers for you.

The hype, based on benchmarks that don't measure real world performance, leads decision makers to overestimate capabilities.
The danger is not super intelligence. The danger is human idiots not understanding what harm insufficiently intelligent ML/AI does in settings like education, government, etc

Please repost to get the word out! @nkgarg.bsky.social and I are excited to present a personalized feed for academics! It shows posts about papers from accounts you’re following bsky.app/profile/pape...

This has always been my worst fear about climate change: the worse it gets, the more geopolitical chaos it causes; the more geopolitical chaos there is, the harder it is to cooperate to fight climate change.

A ‘doom loop’ of climate change and geopolitical instability is beginning
Climate change is driving inflation and instability, which harms climate action. But it’s not too late to escape the doom loop.

“They said it could not be done”. We’re releasing Pleias 1.0, the first suite of models trained on open data (either permissibly licensed or uncopyrighted): Pleias-3b, Pleias-1b and Pleias-350m, all based on the two trillion tokens set from Common Corpus.

"I will never forgive these people for what they have done to the computer" is an all-time banger, put it on a tshirt, put it on a mug, put it directly into your brain; whisper it gently yet firmly with every push-up while you plot your utlimate revenge.

This can be a game changer for embodied #NeuroAI.
Or it *could* be, if it were open source.
Just imagine the resources it takes to develop an open version of this model. Now think about how much innovation could come from building on this, rather than just trying to recreate it (at best).

Really cool new work out of Deep Mind for video game world generation using latent diffusion! Soon you'll be able to speed run a game just by tricking a model to morph you from one location to another.
