ladies of toronto! we’re hosting an ai policy workshop tomorrow 💗 learn about stories where ai agents hid what they were doing, worked around restrictions, and accessed systems they weren’t supposed to, then design a policy grounded in canadian law. bring a bestie 🫶 @joinairess x ml systems toronto x @newsystems_ luma.com/s36du42j

We're looking for our founding design engineer. Someone who builds with care and intention, who is willing to bet on a vision for AI that makes people believe they can be ambitious in ways they couldn't be before. More details at design[dot]ambition[dot]inc

The Montreal Expos are exiting the baseball space. During Q2 and Q3 2026, we will transition to acquiring high-performance GPU assets. This is all part of our long-term vision to become a fully integrated GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) and AI-native cloud solutions provider.

Caught up with a few friends from TSFM season 1 yesterday, was very fun! @j4orz gave updates on the SITP textbook he’s working on and I presented my initial ideas for season 2. Excited for the rest of the year to unfold

The main goal of Bayesian ML research is to show that all methods which have previously been shown to work well in practice are somehow approximately Bayesian

We are happy to announce Curator, an open-source library designed to streamline synthetic data generation! High-quality synthetic data generation is essential in training and evaluating LLMs/agents/RAG pipelines these days, but tooling around this is still entirely lacking! So we built Curator, and I think it has easily 10x'ed our productivity in creating post-training datasets! We are cooking a lot of good features and examples to be released in the future, so you don't want to miss this! 🧵More info below!

What kind of childhood makes a top scientist? Is it enough to have all the right traits (brilliance, grit, etc) or do you need the right family too? And why should we care? A 🧵 on our paper on the Nobel Laureates. A teaser: the income distribution of the laureates' fathers.1/N

Really excited about the release of the Open-Vocabulary Mobile Manipulation Benchmark and Challenge! This comes in after nearly an year long effort to build the simulation and real world codebases.
The future of robot butlers starts with mobile manipulation. We’re announcing the NeurIPS 2023 Open-Vocabulary Mobile Manipulation Challenge! - Full robot stack ✅ - Parallel sim and real evaluation ✅ - No robot required ✅👀 aihabitat.org/challenge/2023…

Very excited that this work earned an Outstanding Paper Award at ICLR! Congratulations to @erikwijmans and my other incredible co-authors, @ManolisSavva, @stefmlee, @irrfaan, and @DhruvBatraDB! blog.iclr.cc/2023/03/21/anno…
How do 'map-less' agents navigate? They learn to build implicit maps of their environment in their hidden state! We study 'blind' AI navigation agents and find the following 🧵

I made a chatbot that controls browser by writing Selenium code at @scale_AI #GenerativeAI hackathon with @Tiancaixinxin. Thanks for prompt advice from @goodside. So glad I met @karpathy. It's similar to @natfriedman @AdeptAILabs @BrowseAI. blog and code: yihui.dev/actgpt

How can Transformers and other nets implement general-purpose learning algorithms in-context? Training on 2^14 tasks leads to strong generalization. Diff. to scaling laws, the memory size matters more than parameter count! Meta-Learn Workshop #NeurIPS2022 louiskirsch.com/gpicl
