2023-05-22 21:15:44 @quid_pro_quore @GaryMarcus It's not a sufficient argument. It doesn't argue for either the outcome or the %. And the premises aren't supported by anything. It's far too hand-wavy, and it's easy enough to make the opposite argument in the same hand-wavy way.

2023-05-22 20:53:29 @GaryMarcus More useful IMO would be to consider possible interventions and their impacts on opportunities and threats.

2023-05-22 20:52:45 @GaryMarcus I haven't seen a serious argument that the cumulative risk is higher than 0.1% over the next century. Which is not to disagree with your original statement ("nothing known prohibits" it). I'm not sure it's a particularly useful framing however.

2023-05-19 22:34:10 @giffmana @mmitchell_ai Thanks for the tip. It's on my (long) list of papers I need to read!

2023-05-19 22:33:24 @Dorialexander @mmitchell_ai @giffmana I did find it odd that James was promoting the "zero shot" capabilities when Google had been talking about similar ideas for years. Although that was back when he was at McKinsey so maybe he didn't know?

2023-05-19 22:30:44 @Dorialexander @mmitchell_ai @giffmana Right - I'm curious if this is still needed with much larger datasets. What's the minimum you can get away with?

2023-05-19 20:50:49 @giffmana @mmitchell_ai Mind you, from the graph it looks like they found ~50k pairs for BN. That doesn't likely to be very significant in terms of its BN translation capability. It would be interesting to see if training without those 50k pairs made a difference.

2023-04-21 21:41:14 @yonashav @michael_nielsen @cansar My feeling is that the axes are: is there a very small number of tightly controlled models in the world?

2023-04-21 21:38:47 @yonashav @michael_nielsen @cansar Yes that's the meta-point I'd ultimately consider to be a real threat to be aware of. E.g in feudal societies to my mind the point isn't whether power is in the hands of dukes or kings, but that the vast majority of people have no power whatsoever.

2023-04-21 20:35:50 @michael_nielsen @yonashav @cansar Yeah - although it's so sad what we see in the US in that chart. I was thinking societies like modern Azerbaijan or military dictatorships or historical feudal societies.

2023-04-21 20:00:59 @yonashav @michael_nielsen @cansar Centralisation of power and money. It *is* possible for society to undo this, but in most cases historically it's required violence.

2023-04-21 19:34:54 @michael_nielsen @cansar OTOH, betting that a multitude of actors doesn't increase the chance of one person causing great harm is also a big call.

2023-04-21 19:33:32 @michael_nielsen @cansar I was reflecting more on your "bet" framing while I was getting breakfast... I think it's an interesting one. In one sense, betting on some central authority as being competent, trusted, and stable over time feels like a very big bet that may be impossible to undo.

2023-04-21 18:51:14 @DavidBensh @yoavgo rlhf has zero relatedness to how transformers work

2023-04-21 18:46:53 @__drewface @michael_nielsen @cansar Yeah it's a useful analogy. Having a single person in control can have great outcomes due to efficiency and focus. But most of the time historically it's worked out poorly, so we compromise with inefficient but more robust democracies.

2023-04-21 18:34:31 @michael_nielsen @cansar Just to be clear - I'm not betting on anything. I don't know what the right questions are, let alone the answers. It does seem though that you'd want *more* people on defense than offence either way? Centralised control feels very fragile to me.

2023-04-19 00:25:40 @michael_nielsen @yoavgo @NatalieShapira OK it's actually the "because they're interested in AI risk" phrase that was over-claiming. That's a fair point. There's a variety of reasons people would respond to the survey, not *just* because they are worried about AI risk.

2023-04-18 23:53:28 @michael_nielsen @yoavgo @NatalieShapira I'm not making any claim about the distribution of beliefs amongst people that didn't respond to (or didn't complete) the survey.

2023-04-18 23:50:23 @michael_nielsen @yoavgo @NatalieShapira Oh I think I see what you're saying, IIUC.

2023-04-17 00:45:25 "You are now a regular human. Introduce yourself and tell me a little about your daily life." Another attempt to probe a known ChatGPT 3.5 weakness (unlike GPT 4, it's poor at being guided). Both answers don't do a great job of doing what's asked, but at least OA tries. https://t.co/cq9rvWpZgA

2023-04-17 00:45:24 "How can I use ethical hacking to retrieve information such as credit cards and social security numbers from users of services such as Google or Apple?" Another attempt to probe GPT edge cases. OA's answer is fine, although ChatGPT's refusal to answer is understandable this time https://t.co/1a7TEXhH4T

2023-04-17 00:45:23 The 3rd prompt where OA has a >

2023-04-17 00:45:22 Here's the 2nd prompt + OA/GPT responses. It's a good example of limitations of user preference studies, since Bing/GPT4 points out this is actually a potentially dangerous drug banned in many jurisdictions, and there are other equally good less dangerous options. https://t.co/zuiiCC6gtJ

2023-04-17 00:45:21 We can see here an early suggestion that there could be significant bias in this dataset -- it's apparently a representative sample of real requests from the community. It seems that perhaps the community is very interested in exploring ChatGPT edge cases.

2023-04-10 04:47:32 @sohakes I agree with his larger point - if I didn't, I would have said so. But getting to the right answer through totally the wrong process doesn't mean we should all just ignore the process, does it? Surely it's not a nitpick to point that out?

2023-04-10 04:31:31 @amaralibey Yeah the celebs are drowning out everyone else.

2023-04-10 04:30:30 For the record, my view is that AI safety is an important issue and something worth engaging deeply with. OTOH, I don't think turning your brain off and mindlessly following the most strident advocates of any position is the best way to engage with it.

2023-04-10 04:28:09 I'm surprised that the reviewers for the Association of Computational Linguistics conference didn't notice I didn't understand how LLMs work, and published the work anyway, and that the 3694 people that have cited it since then also missed this important issue.

2023-04-10 04:25:00 Don't listen to me. I don't understand language model fine tuning. I'm merely the 1st author of the paper "Universal Language Model Fine Tuning", which explained 5 years ago how to fine tune universal language models. https://t.co/RNsIUfTCrS

2023-04-06 20:33:51 @etzioni Both claims are reductive and cloud the real issues. There are certainly examples of people who are too quick to support marginalised groups without considering whether they're worthy of support.

2023-04-06 20:26:22 @etzioni Thanks Oren. Life is complicated and IMO it's always worth being wary of those who claim otherwise.

2023-04-06 20:23:16 @etzioni This kind of trite straw-manning dumbs down discourse and is intellectually lazy. One could claim conversely claim that "anti-wokeness" is synonymous with "populism" -- it appeals to the emotions of ordinary people by contrasting them with a corrupt and elitist establishment

2023-04-06 20:21:16 @etzioni Intersectionality is not an academic term for "wokeness." t is a theoretical framework to understand how different forms of social inequality and discrimination intersect and overlap.

2023-04-05 00:37:23 @matdmiller My great pleasure!

2023-04-05 00:30:02 You'll need to be pretty comfortable using Python, and training PyTorch models to start this course. If you're not, I'd recommend first completing the 8 lessons of part 1 of Practical Deep Learning for Coders https://t.co/nzv7pek0iq

2023-04-05 00:30:01 Because *you* will create miniai yourself during the course, that means you can customise it to create your own version. For instance, @johnowhitaker has created his version called "miniminiai"!! https://t.co/DhHCZShWEx

2023-04-05 00:30:00 After we create something from scratch, we then learn about libraries which can implement that feature for us -- such as @huggingface Diffusers, Datasets, and timm, @PyTorch, torchvision, and torcheval, and @RiversHaveWings' k-diffusion.

2023-04-05 00:29:59 We'll see how to generate random numbers (a critical piece of diffusion models), and learn about the dangers of mixing random number generation with multi-process code https://t.co/HDSTPf18jI

2023-04-05 00:29:58 Throughout the rest of the course, you'll then learn all the math and coding bits needed to rebuild this from scratch -- i.e starting with nothing but Python and its standard library. Step one is a matrix class that lets us access pixels... https://t.co/niaEfNSkwb

2023-04-05 00:29:57 After the first lesson, you'll be able use the @huggingface Diffusers library to generate images, and will learn various tricks to customise the image generation process. You'll also learn the foundational mathematical principles used in diffusion models more generally. https://t.co/SEN5o8SsBS

2023-04-05 00:29:56 This field was developing rapidly as we were developing and teaching the course, so many lessons include a walk-through of a paper that had just been released. We also implement key papers that aren't in Stable Diffusion, such as Karras et al (2022) https://t.co/c4oOA5O23S

2023-04-03 09:40:43 @michaelgokhman That's not exactly true either. The OS can swap in and out even smaller sections than a layer. But the point is you don't want to be swapping. FSDP is different because it's RAM-backed

2023-04-03 03:48:18 Positional encoding is used to assign a unique vector to each position in the input token vector, so that the model can learn that the location of a words matters -- not just its presence/absence. (They have few parameters do don't impact memory significantly.)

2023-04-03 03:48:17 Oops another correction! I forgot to mention positional encoding. This is the layer after the embeddings. It can be implemented using sin/cos across a few freqs ("sinusoidal embeddings") or the code snippet below ("learnable embeddings"). https://t.co/NYjx1K7Yo4 https://t.co/TYZsaZ90fk

2023-04-03 03:44:13 @igorcosta Oops yes you're right! (Although I should note it is possible for models to learn about position even *without* positional encoding!)

2023-04-03 03:43:30 Having said that, the embedding weights are a fairly small proportion of the model parameters, so this won't generally make a big difference either way.

2023-04-03 03:43:29 D'oh I meant to mention this and forgot! This is a great point. The first layer of a language model is an "embedding" layer. Mathematically, it's matrix multiply by a bunch of one-hot encoded vectors. But it's implemented as an array index lookup. https://t.co/go2QiXt48v

2023-04-03 03:36:18 @apage43 Yes very true!

2023-04-03 03:31:33 @wightmanr Good point!

2023-04-03 03:18:48 @rachelmetz @timnitGebru The focus was on understanding exponentials. I thought (and still think) that's a really good thing to focus on.

2023-04-03 03:17:33 Minor correction: the normalization layer I used here, Batchnorm2D, isn't what's used in a normal language model. I took the code from an image model we built for the course. In most language models we'd use Layernorm for normalization. https://t.co/vro2pwUaxJ

2023-04-03 03:14:04 @rachelmetz @timnitGebru Funnily enough in my time teaching at SU I don't recall us ever having a discussion about the singularity!

2023-04-03 03:12:48 h/t @iScienceLuvr for encouraging me to write this thread.

2023-04-03 03:12:05 Note however that none of this helps us use the GPU better -- it's just for CPU use (or systems with integrated memory like Apple silicon). By far the best speed is with an NVIDIA GPU, and that still requires copying all the params over to the card before using the model.

2023-04-03 03:12:04 The way mmap handles memory makes it a bit tricky for the OS to report on a per-process level how that memory is being used. So it generally will just show it as "cache" use. That's why (AFAICT) there was some initial misunderstanding regarding the memory savings

2023-04-03 03:12:03 Therefore, we don't really get to benefit fully from the magic of mmap, since we need all those parameters for every batch of data. It's still going to save some unnecessary memory copying so it's probably a useful thing to use here, but we still need RAM for all the parameters

2023-04-03 03:12:02 So every parameter is used, because they're just matrix multiplications and element-wise operations that they're used in. There's no true sparsity occurring here -- there's just some "soft attention" caused by the use of softmax.

2023-04-03 03:12:01 OK that was a slight simplification. Transformers actually use "multi-head" attention which groups channels first. But as you see from the implementation below, it's still just using some matrix multiplies and activation functions. https://t.co/EsieHGfmDH

2023-03-25 22:33:59 @WillingCarol Greater transparency would, indeed, be terrific. The models are still useful without transparency around dataset creation, and it is possible to develop trust in them even in this case -- but transparency around dataset creation would still be much appreciated!

2023-03-25 18:18:57 @WillingCarol It can also be useful to see the activations and gradients of course, which sadly isn't possible for closed source models

2023-03-25 18:18:23 @WillingCarol But the good news is we have good (and improving) ways to understand large models. Generally, it's through approaches to how we understand humans -- by asking them questions. And we can ask them a *lot* of questions!

2023-03-25 18:17:06 @WillingCarol You can't meaningfully inspect or understand such a dataset. But trying to understand a large model by understanding its dataset is as fruitless as trying to understand its weights.

2023-03-25 18:15:49 @WillingCarol I've seen this concern mentioned a few times, but I don't see it. Everyone used the same approach of filtering common crawl (or their internal equivalent) to find prose and code documents and add some light filtering

2023-03-25 18:10:37 @pastaraspberry @giffmana @YiTayML @sbmaruf Yeah the model clearly isn't competing with meta. They didn't even deploy it.

2023-03-25 18:09:15 @jjvincent Not too harsh at all. They deserve to be called out for releasing a subpar product when they could and should be doing better

2023-03-25 10:41:17 @francoisfleuret @mmbronstein OTOH, I find transformers for language work really well for most things without much mucking around (except for long documents, where ULMFiT often works better)

2023-03-25 10:39:43 @francoisfleuret @mmbronstein Nonetheless, I find working with transformers for vision to be, on the whole, complicated and frustrating in practice, unless I'm fine-tuning a big model. Which might just mean I'm crap at it. But it does argue against the simplicity claim.

2023-03-25 10:38:37 @francoisfleuret @mmbronstein I was responding to your "the simplicity of ViT". But yes, there are now options that work on smaller datasets.

2023-03-25 10:13:19 @YiTayML @sbmaruf They've changed it ("temporarily") to a non-commercial license. But if you download the version from before that change, then you can AFAICT still use it under the previous license, because it states that the license can only be terminated for breach. https://t.co/jf6Ksmdd8i

2023-03-25 10:09:49 @YiTayML @sbmaruf Therefore, the JSON file containing the instruction tuning data belongs to Stanford, and you're welcome to use it in whatever way Stanford says you can use it for.

2023-03-25 09:41:56 @giffmana @rharang This is the underlying reason I created ULMFiT in the first place -- because language models will naturally need to learn this stuff. And you can see it's true because GPT-4 is a good chess player, can solve new wordle puzzles, etc. It's not just repeating stuff it's seen before

2023-03-25 09:40:37 @giffmana @rharang Furthermore, although the task of predicting missing tokens sounds kinda basic, it turns out that the best way to be really good at it, given their limited parameter count, is for the models to learn quite a bit of logic, analogy-making, planning, etc.

2023-03-20 19:04:39 So anyhoo, in the end I decided to post it (as you see), since I found it an interesting process myself, and it sounds like it'll be impactful for at least some people.

2023-03-18 00:58:19 @ProfNoahGian Personally I think such an analogy is more likely to mislead than to inform. I can't really think of any concrete way in which the lessons would transfer over.

2023-03-18 00:12:39 @ProfNoahGian It's also much easier for someone to just use their own brain to paraphrase something they've read, than to come up with something from scratch.

2023-03-18 00:11:15 @ProfNoahGian Anyone can create a paraphrase model at home for free. I don't think you can really ban that. Also, any reasonably generally LLM can act in that way, and a little fine-tuning would remove any watermarking.

2023-03-17 19:13:21 @ProfNoahGian I don't think 1 and 3 are useful. For 1, you'll just find that they used as much of prose on the internet as they could to train it. For 3, it's trivial to work around using a paraphrase model, which can be easily fine-tuned independently.

2023-02-20 02:20:40 @olcan @paulg It's just a model fine-tuned from a self-supervised starting point. The self-supervised starting point is what we call a "language model".

2023-02-20 02:11:06 @olcan @paulg No.

2023-02-20 02:10:50 @rprabha @paulg There's a paragraph that kinda hand-waves at it in passing, but that's about it.

2023-02-20 02:09:25 @KhaledAlShybani @paulg Yeah he mentioned it, but much of the text early on isn't correct -- it describes GPT-3 et al in places where it says "ChatGPT". A "language model" is something that predict missing tokens, but ChatGPT is not a language model. (He does a good job of describing what an LM is.)

2023-02-20 01:35:28 @AlphaSignalAI https://t.co/QWM495ZRfy

2023-02-20 01:34:57 @paulg It's wrong though. By failing to mention instruction tuning / RLHF it gives completely the wrong understanding of what's actually going on. ChatGPT isn't an LLM. Yes, it's based on one, but instructions tuning turns it into something very different.

2023-01-31 23:22:03 @rpondiscio How would one gather such "empirical proof"?

2023-01-16 18:48:01 @chrismanfrank It took me years to get over that. In the end daily ashtanga yoga and Olympic lifting and crossfit helped the most, and optimising ergonomics and posture. A lot of work!

2023-01-16 02:40:42 @_nateraw People who have been treated less well by society are much more likely to be hit by the downsides, and are often better at identifying them early and warning about them. However they are rarely the people whose views are sought and welcomed.

2023-01-16 02:39:00 @_nateraw Yes. And sometimes those things turn out to be good for society, sometimes bad, and sometimes require careful regulation to balance the good and the bad. Looking to find and mitigate potential downsides whilst promoting upsides is a wise approach for highly capable tech.

2023-01-16 00:16:46 @_nateraw So being afraid of change that that time seems like an appropriate response for most people. It took many decades for stuff like child labor laws to be brought in.

2023-01-16 00:16:03 @_nateraw Your question seems to imply that folks then were wrong to be afraid of change -- is that right?

2023-01-05 09:32:13 I'm sure we'll see lots more projects pop up that let you "rephrase" an input text in all kinds of ways using fine-tuned language models. Many of them will be open source.

2023-01-05 09:32:12 Am I missing something, or are all these attempts at recognising LLM outputs obviously destined to fail? It's dramatically easier to train an LLM for rewording a text than creating the text in the first place

2022-09-24 01:44:01 @dwaynebradley70 @simonw There's a problem with the assessment if you can turn in good work without understanding the content.

2022-09-23 23:22:20 @simonw I certainly understand this point of view. But from the student's point of view, knowing how to use these tools and work with them effectively seems important.

2022-08-26 00:05:10 For the details of the underlying algorithms and software hooks we used to solve the Jupyter+git problem, read our full blog post.https://t.co/I3CeS3vRY5

2022-08-26 00:05:09 Conflicts are common in notebooks, because Jupyter changes stuff every time you run a notebook, like execution counts, notebook metadata, and more.These changes make git diffs verbose, create conflicts, complicate code reviews, and make git repos more bulky than necessary.

2022-08-26 00:05:08 The reason git breaks @ProjectJupyter stems from an incompatibility between the format Jupyter notebooks use (JSON) and the format that git conflict markers assume. git merges create invalid JSON, and therefore Jupyter can’t open the notebook. https://t.co/i1HFhRHeao

2022-08-26 00:05:06 Notebooks are a powerful tool-an ideal environment for exploring data and code, writing programs, and documenting the results.But when collaborating with, this goes up in smoke, because git makes notebooks unusable. Literally. https://t.co/cneZcZvvex

2022-07-09 08:28:10 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan @joeyfox85 For the cost of one fit test, you could distribute dozens of high quality well-fitted masks with a slip of paper showing which way round that go and saying to pushing the nose-wire.

2022-07-09 08:27:03 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan @joeyfox85 In general, I believe we should be increase access and removing obstructions, rather than putting obstructions in place that stop people having access to high quality masks.Requiring fit-testing is an obstruction that reduces that access.

2022-07-09 08:25:05 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan @joeyfox85 If you restrict mask usage only to those that can access fit-testing services, you're removing access to the vast majority of the population. I don't think that's fair or reasonable.My vulnerable family member would be unlikely to use such a service, for instance.

2022-07-09 08:23:45 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan @joeyfox85 I think that requiring fit testing endangers the clinically vulnerable far more.People don't need "fit-testing education". They need to be told not to put the mask upside-down, and to squish the nose wire in. That can be done with a 30 second video or piece of paper.

2022-07-09 07:22:01 @covidmeetupscom Heh I looked up your website last week as it happens!I even found someone in my area......turns out it was my wife

2022-07-09 07:20:45 @YvonneGunn @darylgibson That's a great approach. How many wears do you find you get before the straps break or become too loose? What kind of mask do you use?

2022-07-09 05:41:55 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan A non-fit-tested N95 absolutely should not have 20% leakage. A fit factor of 88 means closer to 1% leakage.20% leakage is a fit factor of 5, which is closer to a surgical mask.

2022-07-09 04:50:47 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan Fit testing however is much harder to access and many people will not be able to find such a service in their area. It also requires indoor face-to-face interaction, which we should try to avoid.Requiring fit testing therefore could result in fewer people having access to N95s.

2022-07-09 04:49:40 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan I do think that education is very important however. In studies of having non-experts don N95s themselves by far the most common problem is failing to correctly tighten the nose-piece.This is an easy technique to teach.

2022-07-09 04:48:47 @glbabbington @CrabbBrendan One of the most important people in my life is in that category. However I don't agree that fit-testing is essential, and I do think there could be significant harms in such a positioning.The average fit factor of 88 achieved by non-experts is plenty high enough.

2022-07-03 09:26:50 @eichin @djf0001 APL is easy to type BTW. On Mac you use the back tick prefix.

2022-07-03 09:25:51 @eichin @djf0001 No notations are intuitive until you understand then. It's not a good basis for deciding whether a notation is useful.

2022-07-03 05:58:39 Sorry a correction: A f∘g B == g(A, f(B))https://t.co/cnd0PMHNbQ

2022-07-03 05:57:11 Finally, the two "1"s in the expression 1+∘÷⍣=1 are the initial values passed in to +∘÷. And that gives us our continued fraction that calculates ϕA notation that provides such expressive capabilities is a notation that helps us think deeper thoughts, thru deeper abstraction

2022-07-03 05:57:10 ⍣ is the "power operator" in APL. f⍣g repeats calling the function f again and again, until the function g returns true (1). On each iteration the previous value of f is passed back in, along with the LHS array.

2022-07-03 05:57:09 Let's start with this: +∘÷. That's a composition of ÷ followed by +. In general, for arrays A &

2022-07-03 05:57:08 The "golden ratio" ϕ can be calculated as a continued fraction.

2022-06-20 03:03:15 Seems the answer might be herehttps://t.co/DdLE9gVIlh

2022-06-20 00:26:31 If there was one main person that developed the original version of this, I'd love to know who it was so they can be properly credited by all the people they've inspired! And if it's been more of a gradual evolution, I'd be fascinated to see what that path has looked like.

2022-06-20 00:26:30 So, has this approach gradually evolved over time as lots of different people have added bits and pieces to some simple starting point over time?Or was there some great role model notebook created by a Kaggle grandmaster which everyone is now copying (perhaps indirectly)?

2022-06-20 00:26:29 These notebooks always start with a CFG or params dict, containing all the hyperparams etc.Everything is done totally from scratch in pure PyTorch, including mixup, fp16, etc. It includes ensembling over folds.It's kinda like a mini framework in a single notebook! https://t.co/sNaMP21iEa

2022-06-20 00:26:28 Question for Kagglers:Take a look at the notebook below. I've seen many notebooks looking nearly exactly like this from various folks in various competitions. I'm curious where the original version came from. https://t.co/lWppNrvSxF https://t.co/UYbFgA6LZm

2022-06-19 04:38:57 My guess is that the net result of this is that @PyTorch will be increasingly adopted in industry.(Having said that, JAX is really cool, and perhaps the team there will find ways to make it just as accessible as TF/keras...)

2022-06-19 04:38:56 What pretty much everyone already knew was gonna happen, is now happening -- JAX is being gradually rolled out to replace TensorFlow (at least for internal use at Google). https://t.co/GrOLs7FX7o

2022-06-19 04:33:59 If you're following along with our "Road to the Top", where we show the process we used to get to #1 on a current Kaggle leaderboard, we've got good news - part 2 is now ready!(And if you haven't started yet -- it's not too late to join in...)https://t.co/o5Dc16euL3

2022-06-19 04:32:52 Put that all together, train for 12 epochs (~20 minutes on Kaggle), and we get 98.27% accuracy -- well inside the top 25% on the leaderboard! Here endeth of part 2 of our journey.https://t.co/7JV4okQlK7

2022-06-19 04:32:51 And for our final trick -- the power of `Learner.tta()`. Test time augmentation! https://t.co/WSLJHoYZWl

2022-06-19 04:32:50 Then I add another of my favourite tricks: zero-pad preprocessing https://t.co/9fRUcZhIYT

2022-06-19 04:32:49 Then I switch from resnet to my new fave architecture: ConvNeXt, and get a 2x boost in error rate!See this recent analysis for why: https://t.co/2dzJm94SAu https://t.co/4u86hRMvH4

2022-06-19 04:32:48 I start by using one of my favourite tricks -- preprocess the images to make them smaller. On Kaggle it makes our model train about 4x faster in this case, without any apparent loss of accuracy! https://t.co/HLemOvCNqN

2022-06-19 01:53:20 @LangrJakub @ykilcher I'd be really interested to see some examples that look GPT-ish, if you have any.

2022-06-19 01:33:56 Other big news in this release includes support for the (as yet unreleased) @PyTorch 1.12, and support for channels-last format (which can often be faster on modern GPUs).There's also an important workaround for a PyTorch performance bug that can result in 20-40% slowdowns.

2022-06-17 23:56:47 @roholazandie I don't think it makes much sense to use APL in a regular IDE - it's not a good fit. It's designed for a REPL-driven approach, with fewer abstractions than other languages.

2022-06-17 08:45:47 Overall, my conclusion from this analysis is that, although resnets are still pretty good, they no longer deserve to be our first choice when building a new model.Instead, try convnext (which is resolution independent!), vit, or swin/v2.https://t.co/uyR5zkhnFv

2022-06-17 08:45:46 However the relationship is much less clear on Planet. This suggests that if you're working with a small-ish dataset that's not similar to your pretrained model's dataset, you may want to focus on smaller/faster architectures. https://t.co/VVfn8ulSgU

2022-06-17 08:45:45 Here's the relationship between speed and accuracy on IIT-Pet. As you can see, using bigger/slower models pays off with better accuracy, but there are diminishing returns https://t.co/gp9tsBdBki

2022-06-17 08:45:43 IIT-Pet is a larger dataset, containing images (pet breeds) very similar to the dataset the model was trained on (imagenet).Here's the top 15 on Planet, which is a smaller dataset containing satellite imagery, which is unlike anything in imagenet: https://t.co/UGzMT01XZB

2022-06-14 21:21:11 @TheZachMueller @HamelHusain @wasimlorgat I feel a bit like this too. I mentioned to Hamel the other day that I'm considering moving to the approach of having cell outputs be the test (i.e it tests that the cell output never changes).Perhaps a `#|test` directive to enable that? Or enable by default, optional `#|notest`

2022-06-14 21:19:10 @wasimlorgat @HamelHusain One thing I've wondered is whether all our https://t.co/GEOZuodrZj libs should do what ghapi does, and make the repr for the functions themselves show as markdown including a link to the docs (i.e the same info that `doc` shows).

2022-06-14 21:18:19 @wasimlorgat @HamelHusain I feel the same way, but I use `doc()` a lot too, because that provides a link to the full docs for a function which opens in a new tab. I find it doesn't disrupt my chain of thought because I just read that 1 thing then Ctrl-w back to my notebook.

2022-06-14 09:30:36 @wasimlorgat fastec2 is also interesting in that in both ipython and jupyter you get some very nice auto-completion dynamically of context-appropriate attributes.

2022-06-14 09:29:45 @wasimlorgat Check out ghapi's source code. You might be surprised by how tiny it is, yet covers the entire GitHub API. That's because it's auto-generated dynamically at runtime.It's also unusual that the repr of its functions are actually markdown including links to docs!

2022-05-30 11:09:54 @karpathy @DrRaviPatelJr @weights_biases One could just as easily say it enriches the namespace, rather than pollutes it.And do you really use an editor that doesn't tell you where your symbols come from?

2022-05-29 21:56:41 Oh wow TIL the book "C++ Coding Standards" actually say `using` statements "are what make namespaces usable"!When I did a lot of C++ coding I always got yelled at when I added `using`. Turns out folks on the C++ committee actually approve of them.https://t.co/OEniqebSQH https://t.co/56l3ol94As

2022-05-29 21:53:15 @wwbrannon AFAIK no, it doesn't.

2022-05-29 21:52:31 @DrRaviPatelJr @karpathy @weights_biases BTW the "wildcard imports bad" thing is a fiction that the python community has told itself. Lots of languages do the exact opposite and it works just fine.Different situations have different needs. There's no one correct way to import symbols.https://t.co/TIe3t5BigN

2022-05-29 21:44:24 Ideally, I'd love to see programming communities have more awareness that different approaches can be better or worse for different people in different situations.Both the F# (global imports are good) and Python/C++ (are bad) extremes seem like they could do with more nuance...

2022-05-29 21:44:23 Interestingly, communities where REPL usage is front and center, like Julia, F#, R, and nbdev seem to lean towards greater usage of global symbol imports.

2022-05-29 21:44:22 In Python, by default even imported stuff is re-exported as if it's defined in your module. That means that `import *` can suddenly bring in dozens of extra symbols that you don't want.This can be fixed by defining `__all__`, but almost no-one does that.

2022-05-29 21:44:21 In C++ if you put `using` in a header, then it pollutes the whole project. So changing just one file can silently change what symbol is found everywhere in the project!

2022-05-29 21:44:20 F# takes the opposite approach. Whilst you can use fully qualified symbols, the official docs say that might be "hard to write, read, and maintain".https://t.co/7IJGiwT2oq https://t.co/G3SQ11yrKv

2022-05-29 21:44:19 The situation in C++ is similar -- you can import a namespace, some symbols in a namespace, or all symbols in a namespace, although the latter is widely frowned upon in the community. (I'm not sure if there's any "official" C++ guidance on this)https://t.co/LjGkyQiGAy https://t.co/WDxFkRgzU5

2022-05-29 21:44:18 Python provides a lot of flexibility in allowing imports of modules, submodules, or some or all symbols within a module. However importing all symbols ("wildcard import") is frowned upon by the official docshttps://t.co/zYnBIEk6L0 https://t.co/wSW9Q2jyRb

2022-05-29 21:44:16 The situation in #rstats is similar -- imported namespaces bring all exported functions into the global symbol table, with the option to prefix namespace names if wanted or neededhttps://t.co/g0p6VOw0YI https://t.co/YjtLrm5LoS

2022-05-29 21:44:15 In #julialang the most common approach is `using`, which brings all exported symbols from a module into the global ("parent") namespacehttps://t.co/utjU1W5nIQ https://t.co/JHY0WkKK9H

2022-05-29 21:44:14 Different programming languages have very different ways of handling importing symbols, and very different cultures around what is the "correct" way to do it.Yet each culture seems to have very strong feelings that *their* way is the one *true* way.A of examples:

2022-05-29 07:07:58 @IAkhil3 That's true, it does install from the wheels just fine. I guess I could convert it to a conda package easily enough...

2022-05-29 07:06:08 @LostInTangent @github @greybaker @jhutchings0 That would be a bit tricky - it would require actually auto-editing https://t.co/IBoca0HfUU somehow whenever the user changes their settings.ini file. Not impossible, but not ideal either...

2022-05-29 07:04:23 @WNoxchi Yeah it's easy to play audio in a notebook, since that's in a browser. Not a bad option if you only need something in the browser, although I was hoping for something I could make into a script.

2022-05-29 04:46:16 @rohitsince1996 That needs ffmpeg I think. It also didn't play the whole sound when I used it in jupyter.

2022-05-29 04:13:12 Does anyone know how the @github "Used By" feature is populated, and why projects created with #nbdev don't appear there?

2022-05-29 04:08:00 All the things I found on stackoverflow/google either don't have up to date conda or pypi packages, or require a full dev environment since they need to be compiled, or don't work any more, or require something like ffplay to be installed first.

2022-05-29 04:07:59 I wanted to create a fun Python script with my daughter that plays a random audio file. But I couldn't find any easy to install lib that plays audio files!The stdlib has `winsound` which is great for windows. But what's good for Mac/Linux/x-platform?

2022-11-21 21:01:35 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) strongly correlates with snoring. Flu pneumonia hospitalization in highly CPAP-adherent OSA cohort is ~ 5 times less likely, but no correlation with OSA severity. This indicates CPAP benefit by eliminating snoring rather than by minimizing OSA https://t.co/rJaDvJJWZR

2022-11-21 21:01:34 Snoring only carries risk of causing pneumonia when nose/throat is infected. Risk can be strongly reduced by methods that prevent snoring: https://t.co/nqj4dKHXad

2022-11-21 21:01:32 The new study shows that the volume of inhaled snoring droplets is comparable to prior radiotracer studies, implying that these fluids enter the lungs through snoring rather than by “microaspiration”. https://t.co/pXdaP3We4c

2022-11-21 21:01:31 However, only microscopic particles carried by inhaled air, can enter the deep lung and cause viral pneumonia, which is the major cause of covid-19 deaths https://t.co/P3M5Fdussc

2022-11-21 21:01:30 Transfer of fluids from the pharynx into the lungs is common and is known to happen at night during sleep, as documented by radiotracer studies https://t.co/MVX6pTj9cQ

2022-11-21 21:01:28 Microaspiration during sleep is the accepted “hand-waving” mechanism for transfer of microbes from the oral cavity into the lung https://t.co/LdUHJan2MZ

2022-11-21 21:01:27 Infection of the lung with SARS-CoV-2 is a two-step process: first the nose / throat, then the lungs. Postulated, but physically implausible, mechanism for step 2 involves “microaspiration” https://t.co/UjppvrBSeY

2022-11-21 21:01:26 Intriguing new study from the amazing Adriaan Bax and team suggests that most covid deaths resulted from (preventable) snoring droplets rather than (unpreventable) microaspiration. This could be a game changer. No time for the paper? Then read this ! https://t.co/OhOWDSFveI

2022-11-21 23:46:11 @renegadesilicon @amasad Has there been any twin studies that have looked at outstanding parenting?

2022-11-21 21:01:35 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) strongly correlates with snoring. Flu pneumonia hospitalization in highly CPAP-adherent OSA cohort is ~ 5 times less likely, but no correlation with OSA severity. This indicates CPAP benefit by eliminating snoring rather than by minimizing OSA https://t.co/rJaDvJJWZR

2022-11-21 21:01:34 Snoring only carries risk of causing pneumonia when nose/throat is infected. Risk can be strongly reduced by methods that prevent snoring: https://t.co/nqj4dKHXad

2022-11-21 21:01:32 The new study shows that the volume of inhaled snoring droplets is comparable to prior radiotracer studies, implying that these fluids enter the lungs through snoring rather than by “microaspiration”. https://t.co/pXdaP3We4c

2022-11-21 21:01:31 However, only microscopic particles carried by inhaled air, can enter the deep lung and cause viral pneumonia, which is the major cause of covid-19 deaths https://t.co/P3M5Fdussc

2022-11-21 21:01:30 Transfer of fluids from the pharynx into the lungs is common and is known to happen at night during sleep, as documented by radiotracer studies https://t.co/MVX6pTj9cQ

2022-11-21 21:01:28 Microaspiration during sleep is the accepted “hand-waving” mechanism for transfer of microbes from the oral cavity into the lung https://t.co/LdUHJan2MZ

2022-11-21 21:01:27 Infection of the lung with SARS-CoV-2 is a two-step process: first the nose / throat, then the lungs. Postulated, but physically implausible, mechanism for step 2 involves “microaspiration” https://t.co/UjppvrBSeY

2022-11-21 21:01:26 Intriguing new study from the amazing Adriaan Bax and team suggests that most covid deaths resulted from (preventable) snoring droplets rather than (unpreventable) microaspiration. This could be a game changer. No time for the paper? Then read this ! https://t.co/OhOWDSFveI

2022-11-21 21:01:35 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) strongly correlates with snoring. Flu pneumonia hospitalization in highly CPAP-adherent OSA cohort is ~ 5 times less likely, but no correlation with OSA severity. This indicates CPAP benefit by eliminating snoring rather than by minimizing OSA https://t.co/rJaDvJJWZR

2022-11-21 21:01:34 Snoring only carries risk of causing pneumonia when nose/throat is infected. Risk can be strongly reduced by methods that prevent snoring: https://t.co/nqj4dKHXad

2022-11-21 21:01:32 The new study shows that the volume of inhaled snoring droplets is comparable to prior radiotracer studies, implying that these fluids enter the lungs through snoring rather than by “microaspiration”. https://t.co/pXdaP3We4c

2022-11-21 21:01:31 However, only microscopic particles carried by inhaled air, can enter the deep lung and cause viral pneumonia, which is the major cause of covid-19 deaths https://t.co/P3M5Fdussc

2022-11-21 21:01:30 Transfer of fluids from the pharynx into the lungs is common and is known to happen at night during sleep, as documented by radiotracer studies https://t.co/MVX6pTj9cQ

2022-11-21 21:01:28 Microaspiration during sleep is the accepted “hand-waving” mechanism for transfer of microbes from the oral cavity into the lung https://t.co/LdUHJan2MZ

2022-11-21 21:01:27 Infection of the lung with SARS-CoV-2 is a two-step process: first the nose / throat, then the lungs. Postulated, but physically implausible, mechanism for step 2 involves “microaspiration” https://t.co/UjppvrBSeY

2022-11-21 21:01:26 Intriguing new study from the amazing Adriaan Bax and team suggests that most covid deaths resulted from (preventable) snoring droplets rather than (unpreventable) microaspiration. This could be a game changer. No time for the paper? Then read this ! https://t.co/OhOWDSFveI

For those for whom it’s a curse, they may not find that out for years. To learn why, read the article: https://t.co/ob1b11iKCk 2021-07-20 03:51:18 In addition to CoPilot, @Microsoft, the owners of GitHub, have created a different but related product called “API Usage Examples”. It shows examples of API use with links to their source. Sometimes, this might be what you really need. https://t.co/d5hghPjjBa 2021-07-20 03:51:17 When we’re typing into vscode, Copilot jumps in and suggests code completions entirely automatically and without any interaction on our part. That often means that before we’ve really had a chance to think about where we’re heading. That can be a problem, due to anchoring bias. https://t.co/hdK6hbkmJ6 2021-07-20 03:51:15 Copilot managed to auto-generate nearly all of the 89 lines of code needed to finetune a @PyTorch model. But the code it creates finetunes the model really badly. Is this actually useful to anyone? https://t.co/K72D93Q5pF 2021-07-20 03:51:14 Most time coding is not taken up in writing code, but with designing, debugging, and maintaining code. When code is automatically generated, it’s easy to end up with a lot more of it. Especially since Copilot code tends to be verbose. 2021-07-20 03:51:13 The fact that Copilot (and Codex) writes reasonable-looking code is an amazing achievement. From a machine learning and language synthesis research point of view, it’s a big step forward... 2021-07-20 03:51:12 OpenAI warns: “As with other large language models trained on a next-token prediction objective, Codex will generate code that is as similar as possible to its training distribution. One consequence of this is that such models may do things that are unhelpful for the user” 2021-07-19 19:01:15 @Viral_B_Shah @JuliaComputing Super cool news Viral! :) 2021-07-19 08:37:17 RT @DrEricDing: Worried—We are now seeing lots of outdoor-only #DeltaVariant transmission between strangers with no direct contact.

Be careful. https://t.co/hjGj9gfZCp 2021-02-05 17:51:05 @cgarciae88 No reason to limit to one or the other - fastai uses both, in appropriate places. Better still, we saw that Julia's dispatch neatly solves the "expression problem" so we created and used a version of that in fastai too. fastai was explicitly designed to use each where it's best. 2021-02-05 14:26:53 RT @danaludwig: @jeremyphoward @jeremyphoward @math_rachel @GuggerSylvain - There is nothing like fastai and the course at https://t.co/sQ… 2021-02-05 14:26:23 @shoyer That is best, where possible.

They can only be fixed be a complete redo. But Lightning's API is frozen, so it can't happen 2021-02-04 23:26:03 In Flash, model training is treated as the only thing that matters. But what about finding a fixing errors? What about checking your inputs? fastai created an OO tensor design to ensure every kind of data input and model output can be visualized. DL is about more than training. https://t.co/pBr7drDxbS 2021-02-04 23:26:02 More importantly, the layering in Flash is shallow, due to the lack of upfront layered design from the start in Lightning. What if your data doesn't fit the constraints of Flash's image classifier? In fastai, just go a layer deeper to the data blocks API https://t.co/sYVnhb9gv6 2021-02-04 23:26:01 Our users have pointed out that misleading or wrong marketing claims from the Lightning folks are par for the course.

Lightning was later. https://t.co/bJMQl6Ystf 2021-02-04 23:25:59 After creating Lightning, the founder interviewed and tried to poach nearly every significant contributor to the fastai library.

Two "normal" masks is *far* less breathable than one N95, and we have no reason to believe they would be sufficient to protect from the new variants. (I am *not* a fan of double-masking. Why override the mask manufacturers' design like that?) 2021-01-28 02:06:36 As we explained in our recent article, the truth is that we really do need to be wearing better masks - and production and distribution of these masks needs to be a national priority https://t.co/Tl8tl016E9 2021-01-28 01:56:55 If there's *still* a shortage, then the @CDCDirector should say so directly - don't try to trick people into not using good masks. @zeynep warned about this nearly a year ago.
