Pretty huge news that @Roblox is coming to the @MetaQuestVR App Lab in the next few weeks. They say it's "The easiest way to publish and distribute experiences to VR" and there are "over 15 million active experiences" on Roblox. 🤯Interesting to see if all 15M will be VR-enabled.
Roblox is coming to @MetaQuestVR. Open Beta for developers coming soon on App Lab. More info in the link below rblx.co/Meta-Quest

Google is hosting the first "Machine Unlearning" challenge. Yes you heard it right - it's the art of forgetting, an emergent research field.
GPT-4 lobotomy is a type of machine unlearning. OpenAI tried for months to remove abilities it deems unethical or harmful, sometimes going a bit too far.
Unlike deleting data from disk, deleting knowledge from AI models (without crippling other abilities) is much harder than adding. But it is useful and sometimes necessary:
▸ Reduce toxic/biased/NSFW contents
▸ Comply with privacy, copyright, and regulatory laws
▸ Hand control back to content creators - people can request to remove their contribution to the dataset after a model is trained
▸ Update stale knowledge as new scientific discoveries arrive
Check out the machine unlearning challenge: ai.googleblog.com/2023/06/an…
