@tensorcore Ive been on that plane too ! I like that they arrange passenger position based on weight.

Had so much fun hosting this panel “Is Scale Enough?” on Algorithms Day for the Open Problems for AI Summit in Tokyo 🇯🇵 with @kaixhin @EmtiyazKhan @jad_tarifi @SamPassaglia Masanori Koyama 🤖 we discussed definitions of AGI, and how we can advance algorithmic research 🚀

[Sam Passaglia @SamPassaglia]

@drlucylai @kaixhin @EmtiyazKhan @jad_tarifi Thanks a lot for inviting us and for keeping the discussion on track! Great panel :)

New Differential Transformer paper (@ytz2024 ++) is really cool: they make attention heads differential, computing two attention maps per input and subtracting them.

This improves performance by cancelling out noise, like a humbucking guitar.

I had such a blast at @tokyoaijp's NLP session last night hearing from our 4 amazing speakers, @lhl @ayase_lab @ayaniwa1213 @loem_ms, and speaking to the ~100 attendees!
Now I'm pumped to organize more events with @kaixhin and @ikulyatin in the future :)

[Ilya Kulyatin @ikulyatin]

7th August is our 3rd TAI AAI (@tokyoaijp Advanced AI) session, focused on NLP. Come listen to researchers and engineers from the top Japanese labs presenting their work on LLMs.

@davis_yoshida @cis_female @deliprao @vedanujg Still won't be exactly apples-to-apples unless you match the context length in actual text of the two models during training

[Satya Nadella @satyanadella]

Today we announced our plans to deepen our investments in Japan, spanning cloud and AI infrastructure, skilling, research, and cybersecurity, as we continue partnering to accelerate the country's AI transformation.
