The biggest predictor of coding ability is Language Aptitude. Not Math.

A study posted in Nature found that numeracy accounts for just 2% of skill variance.

Meanwhile, the neural behaviors associated with language accounted for 70% of skill variance.

I am excited to finally share our recent paper "Filtering After Shading With Stochastic Texture Filtering" (with Matt Pharr, @marcosalvi, and Marcos Fajardo), published at ACM I3D'24 / PACM CGIT, where we won the best paper award! 1/N

@seanbax Here, fixed it for you:

The 'High-throughput FizzBuzz' solution by ais523 is awe-inspiring. I was blown-away in the third phase, when the FizzBuzz bytecode interpreter, AVX2, and elegant decimal arithmetic techniques all come together seamlessly:

I'm glad to see the excitement about iOS 17's Object Capture feature in my latest tweet! For you, I created a new demo of our AR Code application in development. We are still in the heart of Paris, and here we highlight this remarkable statue in the garden of the Palais-Royal.

In a few weeks the AR Code application dedicated to 3D capture will be available with the arrival of iOS 17 for everyone. Within the app, you will also be able to instantly generate AR QR Code anchors for your captures. Allowing you to share them with as many people as possible by displaying them on your products, websites, showcases, etc.

To receive information on the availability of the application by email you can create a free account at https://t.co/G6GHDinVDF. Also don't forget to explore our other 3D modeling tools: AR Text, AR Portal, AR Logo, AR Photo,...! The future will definitely be turned towards AR!

Great compendium on Transformers training and inference, and super useful links to latency and FLOPS angles:

The most common question we get about our models is "will X fit on Y GPU?" This, and many more questions about training and inferring with LLMs, can be answered with some relatively easy math.

Andrej does it again! Fantastic video lecture! Also, a great way to "introduce" Shannon's classic 1948 paper on information theory :)

We build and train a Transformer following the "Attention Is All You Need" paper in the language modeling setting and end up with the core of nanoGPT.

@br I love programming because it's the simplest way to create something that never existed before, make impossible possible, -- and share it with others.

Затонувшие корабли и ChatGPT. Тред.

В сороковых-пятидесятых годах воздушное и морское текстирование атомного оружия создали избыточный радиационный фон, примерно в +10% от естественного. 1/8

...and now let's go deeper into the hallucinating world of chatGPT:

[james yu @jamesjyu]

This GPT virtual machine post is only the tip of the iceberg.

@joshlabau and I have discovered that text-davinci-003 has the capability to do something we're calling HALLUCINATED SCRIPTS

Buckle up for a thread, this one is mind bending 🤯

This is absolutely insane: "We can chat with this Assistant chatbot, locked inside the alt-internet attached to a virtual machine, all inside ChatGPT's imagination."

30 years ago we were working on SNES 'Spider-Man and the X-Men in Arcade's Revenge'. We had very little time for this project and had 3 very experienced coders on-board to get it done. Here's a FAX from production at Acclaim to give you a flavour of the pressure we were under 1/2
