(still) Kicking it @ Amazon! Fueled by friends, family, sport, travel and a passion for food & drink. Opinions of all kinds are my own.

Amazon researchers are heading to @COLM_conf in San Francisco next week with accepted publications spanning agentic AI, LLM post-training, multi-agent systems, and automated reasoning.

The @NFL introduced machine learning to football with @NextGenStats, transforming how the game is measured. Learn how the league went from basic box scores to producing up to 1,000 stats per play in 10 years: https://t.co/QLSKRaV6Mk

Great initiative, very exciting to see LightSpeed provide funding for the fundamental AI and Systems research at Berkeley that has been originating so many (open source!) research breakthroughs and start-ups

There is a lot of talk about paying it forward, and here is Lightspeed actually paying it forward! ♥️♥️♥️

PS: $ going into this kind of lab are almost surely the highest leverage in terms of

"open source research frontier progress" / "$"

not to mention grow talent pool

Very excited to start sharing some of the work we have been doing at Amazon FAR. In this work we present OmniRetarget, which can generate high-quality interaction-preserving data from human motions for learning complex humanoid skills.

High-quality re-targeting really helps the reinforcement learning.

Why? The control policy optimization landscape is much nicer for (near)feasible trajectories than for trajectories with artifacts like (e.g.) foot skating or ground penetration.

So damn excited about this release ; )

@ktopenn Baahahaha, love it!

My heart is so full of hope for our future. This is the leadership we deserve @KamalaHarris

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

Congratulations, @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. Our two countries are close friends, partners, and allies. We share a relationship that’s unique on the world stage. I’m really looking forward to working together and building on that with you both.

Jeff B's first ever job listing for Amazon - don't know about you but I still prefer two spaces after a period. https://t.co/Vw4RQmrMjL via @mashable
