Today at WWDC we introduced a new static linker. It is a ground-up rewrite that’s up to 5x faster than ld64. The new linker is written with multicore in mind, and it’s the first production ready parallel linker officially supported for iOS development. (1/n)

Just wrapped up an amazing experience as a student volunteer at @EuroSys_conf! Grateful for the occasion to learn from excellent speakers and contribute to a successful event. Thanks to the general chairs @Giusepp29824592@lquerzoni for the opportunity!
I very quickly threw together some code for fine-tuning LLaMA. One version using PEFT+8bit, and another using (simple) pipeline parallelism for full fine-tuning.

Added early version of RL chapter. Improved backpropagation section so it relies less on matrix calculus. Fixed loads of small things. Thanks to everyone who sent comments!
Holiday hacking: a script that attempts to summarize a Ghidra-decompiled function/program using GPT-3 by recursively summarizing its dependencies in the call graph! https://t.co/PQUXQ4CTBB
Announcing a holiday gift: 🎅SantaCoder - a 1.1B multilingual LM for code that outperforms much larger open-source models on both left-to-right generation and infilling!

Apple has released a software update limiting the use of AirDrop in China in light of recent protests.
AirDrop was being used by protesters to transmit info directly phone to phone, bypassing the Great Firewall of China.
I'm thrilled to announce that our paper on the (in)completeness of debug information will appear in ASPLOS '23. We spot clang & gcc bugs behind debug information loss when compiling with optimizations.

The code will be open-sourced.
Super excited to finally release our latest work where we show that AI can help humans in verifying Wikipedia claims. Everything is open-sourced: data, models, code and our new Sphere retrieval white-box engine. A step forward in general trustworthiness of information online 🚀
