Deep learning speech research @GoogleAI. Let's build The Young Lady's Illustrated Primer! Spare time: classical music, science journal clubs, MTB, dance.

@SFF1 I'm looking for an enthusiast to give an F1 engineering talk in SF at 8pm THIS SUNDAY (May 17). Aerodynamics, suspension geometry, active suspension, tire science/degradation management, brake-by-wire, cooling, etc. Could you DM me any recs/pointers? Thank you! :-)

SF & Oakland: a few friends and I wrote a voting tool as a side project. See 65+ voter guides in one place at https://t.co/3CDKMKbCwX and go vote on June 2nd! Primaries get less attention than general elections, but in California they're often the election that matters most.

Make voting less painful with https://t.co/dXgCRUk42E - now live for San Francisco & Oakland! Just in time for the June 2026 special elections. Please share with your communities - we’d love everyone to experience how easy voting should be!

My team in GDM Frontier AI is hiring (Mountain View). If you're a researcher interested full duplex modeling, multimodal LLMs (Gemini), modality gap, joint speech/text modeling, PGMs, streamable generative models, and representation learning for language modeling -- DM me!

@prasanna Haha sick burn!

Wow, google open source some tts models https://t.co/mmvjREhNG1

Eric is the powerhouse that got RNN-based TTS models to generalize to utterance lengths not seen in training via Dynamic Convolution Attention (DCA). Now he's at it again with Transformer-based models, using interpolated relative position biases in a novel alignment mechanism 💪

[Eric Battenberg @EricBattenberg]

Transformer-based TTS models sound great but have all kinds of reliability issues.

Our new model, Very Attentive Tacotron (VAT), is a Transformer-based TTS system that doesn't drop or repeat words and can generalize to any practical utterance length.

@alixro (I'm a community-mate of Brady and Firen's. Would love to have you over to meet London Breed Wednesday evening. Would be a huge thrill to meet you -- DM me if you're free?)

[daisy stanton @daisystanton]

@alixro Alix, I've been a huge fan of your guide for a long time! We'd love you to add it to @OpenBallotApp so your voter guide can be discoverable by everyone on the platform. It's still a beta, but we'd also love your feedback!

@CorleyTwin2 @estcla Other recs from that epoch of my life: Ishiguro's _Remains of the Day_, Lanchester's _Debt to Pleasure_, Banville's _The Sea_, ...

@CorleyTwin2 @estcla He was a provocateur? That aside, it's an absolute masterpiece -- "a love affair with the English language" (his own words). I read it 6 times in my twenties...

DALLE-3 release reminds me of a captivating dinner party art piece I've wanted to build: in-home ASR device -> bit of prompt finessing -> parallel text streams to DALLE-X -> 1-best displayed on a 77" 4k QLED. Result is artistic rendering of conversation on ~30s refresh.

If you haven't listened to Lex's June 30 interview with George Hotz (and especially if you think you hate Hotz), do. It was very good and very entertaining. I recommend audio over video: https://t.co/KBeNRuL9NI

@DanielleFong @Noahpinion @ArmandDoma @DanielleFong could you say more about what you mean by "different entities"? (Genuinely curious and unsure!)
