Well, it is !

@AntoninAtger @clem_corbin Surtout… Le concept de “créateur” d’un système complexe comme Siri est risible en soi.

@juberti Cool ! I was just wondering of the rt models were "forgotten".

However I just tested it on our evaluation dataset (text-to-text) it's roughly 2x slower than the previous model. Is it expected?

[Mohamed Elsayed @mhmd_elsaye]

Would you believe that deep RL can work without replay buffers, target networks, or batch updates? Our recent work gets deep RL agents to learn from a continuous stream of data one sample at a time without storing any sample. Joint work with @Gautham529 and @rupammahmood.

C'est finalement un train à grande vitesse (TGV) qui reliera Québec à Toronto, a appris Radio-Canada. Le fédéral en fera l'annonce dans les prochaines semaines. Jusqu'à 300 km/h. Arrêts à Trois-Rivières, Laval, Montréal, Ottawa et Peterborough https://t.co/Zv2Bm5lIyo #polcan

I vividly remember the time I discovered that ‘std::vector<bool>’ wasn’t actually a vector. I was so pissed off I documented my feelings for posterity https://t.co/tlwR7ZqXOc

Anyway, I’m happy to see people are still getting fooled in 2024 :)

An ETH Zurich (@ETH_en) lecturer published a paper "proving" that C++ vector is 20x slower than C array: https://t.co/lE9DvN9qkP

He used `vector<bool>`, completely unaware that it is a dynamic bitset.

Guess googling "vector<bool> slow" before publishing was too hard. 🤦

🪩The @stateofai 2024 has landed! 🪩

Our seventh installment is our biggest and most comprehensive yet, covering everything you *need* to know about research, industry, safety and politics.

As ever, here's my director’s cut (+ video tutorial!) 🧵

Being a senior developer is being able to fix the bug in 5 minutes

But having the discipline to assign it to a team member knowing it’ll take them 4 hours

the energy i bring to the team

I'm tired of having to prove to people that generative AI systems infringe by default, so here's a megathread of images I've prompted you can use in your discussions.

Article by @GaryMarcus and myself at the end. 1/🧵

@jmac_ai @proceduralia I guess my point is that it’s a continuum between planning in known deterministic environments and model free RL. And it’s always the same concepts and objective -> optimizing for a value function.

[Clodéric Mars @cloderic]

@jmac_ai @proceduralia I mean we’re saying the same thing, you can “theoretically” build a search tree in any environment, it’s often impractical or impossible, though. RL enables the same thing by learning a model (explicitely for model based implicitely otherwise) from interactions.

L'entretien que nous venons d'avoir @Cyrielle_Chtl et moi au nom des Ecologistes avec le président de la République est extrêmement préoccupant.

Voici en transparence ce que j'en retiens.

Comme vous le comprendrez, j'en ressors inquiète, mais pas surprise.

On continue ⤵️

Il est donc à la recherche d’un mec (ça on a remarqué) qui serait un opposant MAIS qui lui obéirait en tous points… ce n’est plus la recherche d´un premier ministre mais la chasse au Dahu et donc… ça peut durer longtemps….

Ma mère avait super mal au ventre.
La régulatrice du 15 l'a engueulée, infantilisée. Elle est allée à l'hôpital. Elle a été laissée dans un coin pendant des heures avant d'avoir une prise de sang qui a révélé la gravité de sa situation.
Ma mère a failli mourir d'une pancréatite

.@lufafarms j’ai un vrai débats à table avec la famille : doit on dire l*ou*fa ou l*u*fa ? J’imagine que les anglophones disent le premier mais avez vous un preference ? #vraiquestion
