@andrewho03 Completely agree. AI is a technology not a product, and as such it will take decades for all the products we’ll build with it to get thought up, shaped, refined, and made valuable. I see no reason why the labs would be expected to capture much of that value.

@0xBADB01E You’re giving me Gaudi 2 scaling flashbacks.

[Ryan Metz @RyanAEMetz]

@BillyStrings Backwoods power!

[Ryan Metz @RyanAEMetz]

@JoshuaSteinman @alexdolbun @zanehengsperger @SecWar I do, but I’m working on my first startup right now. I have put a team together for the Ti one and want to do it late this year.

@bojie_li Great piece of work thank you

[Ryan Metz @RyanAEMetz]

@macspiller I had been thinking about starting a company to make transformers a few years ago but decided against it. Glad to see you doing this!

[Ryan Metz @RyanAEMetz]

@tallsnail Spying on my family?

@xwanyex I think it really depends on the kid. My eldest son was very sensitive by nature, any little thing would set him off. Got him doing BJJ and he got used to being pushed and pulled on, just more tolerant of contact. It’s been really great for him.

@FilArons Very nice, but make mine a Hugo.

Why spend that kind of money when you can make wild profits for a few decades turning Americans into gambling/porn addicts and there are plenty of foreign workers who can keep things running? Americans have built up a ton of wealth. Make them junkies and you can take it all.

[Ryan Metz @RyanAEMetz]

Legalization of online gambling, turning games for kids into gambling with loot crates etc, the OF explosion, and now this AI bf/gf crap. I am seeing a plan emerge. This country is being converted into an enormous casino and digital strip club. They’ll extract every last dollar.

Why is education falling apart? Why are we not investing in our future? How come we need to import so many knowledge workers given we used to produce the best in the world?

@eigenrobot Our 2019 Odyssey with over 100k miles on it is going strong, great decision. The haters don’t have kids, they’re already dead.

[Kyle Harrison @kwharrison13]

Intel is an American institution born from legends: Moore, Noyce, Grove.

But today, Intel is dying.

And, unfortunately, its death could spell the end of American dominance.

Intel may be our only hope to build the American Semiconductor Manufacturing Company.

Here's how:

@beffjezos No one truly “understands” any deep, overparameterized model. AlexNet was a surprise.

[Peyman Milanfar @docmilanfar]

The greatest feeling you can have as a scientist is realizing you’ve discovered something that no one else in the world knows yet

When this happens, put your pencil down, take a deep breath and savor those three minutes before someone points out it was published fifty yrs ago

BREAKING:

we've partnered with @metaai and @paperswithcode to build a successor to Papers with Code (which was sunsetted yesterday)

PWC, founded by @rbstojnic and @rosstaylor90 has been an invaluable resource for AI scientists and engineers over the years (and an inspiration for us to build @huggingface)

We are happy to follow in their path and provide a new section of HF for the community to follow trending Papers, linked to their code implementations on GitHub 🔥

And hat/tip @joespeez @ThomasScialom for helping with this 🥰
