Successfully defended my PhD thesis today!!
Lucky to have been examined by the amazing @fra_toni and @IAugenstein.
Thanks to my wonderful advisors @foobarin and @AleRussoUK for their mentorship and guidance ✨
All the recordings for the @GPU_MODE x @scaleml series are up as a playlist in case you missed it 😁
There's so much value in these ~8 hours of lectures, from proving quantization error bounds on a whiteboard to a deep-dive into GPU warp schedulers!
Plz take advantage of it!
Imagine learning the latest research/practice on MoEs, quantization, positional encodings, and other foundation model topics in single week by listening to this mixture of wonderful experts.
Don’t miss it!
We are excited to share the recent MIT News article on Sarah Alnegheimish, a former researcher with our sibling program, CCES. Sarah is a PhD student in @kveeramac's lab in @MITLIDS. Her goal is to make machine learning systems more accessible.

Excited to see Orion (https://t.co/WMObf0rrxg) reaching 100k downloads on pypi!
It's rewarding to see the impact of developing a usable library for time series anomaly detection!
@_joestacey_ Break it down! It's much less daunting when it's small, concrete tasks.
One thing I really loved from the thesis retreat is having a meta doc where you plan your writing. Defines each chapter, items to be done, materials you have, .. etc. Having everything in one place helped!!
Hello everyone! We are quite a bit late to the twitter party, but welcome to the MIT NLP Group account! follow along for the latest research from our labs as we dive deep into language, learning, and logic 🤖📚🧠
I'm teaching databases this semester at Berkeley. My students all seem unusually brilliant. Not many go to office hours, and not too many folks post on the course forum asking project questions.
Weirdly, the exam had the lowest recorded average in my 10 semesters teaching it.
[1/x] can we scale small, open LMs to o1 level? Using classical probabilistic inference methods, YES! Joint @MIT_CSAIL / @RedHat AI Innovation Team work introduces a particle filtering approach to scaling inference w/o any training! check out https://t.co/Iz8zoVbZPn
We're ecstatic to bring you "How Transformer LLMs Work" -- a free course with ~90 minutes of video, code, and crisp visuals and animations that explain the modern Transformer architecture, tokenizers, embeddings, and mixture-of-expert models.
@MaartenGr and I have developed a lot of the visual language over the last several years (tens of thousands of iterations for hundreds of figures) for the book. But to have an opportunity to collaborate with the legendary @AndrewYNg, we took them to the next level with animations and a concise narrative meant to enable technical learners to pick up an ML paper and understand the architecture description.

#Statement | The Foreign Ministry affirms that Saudi Arabia’s position on the establishment of a Palestinian state is firm and unwavering. HRH Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister clearly and unequivocally reaffirmed this stance.
We are hiring 6 lecturers at @imperialcollege, to work on AI, ML, graphics, vision, quantum and software engineering. This includes researchers working on LLMs, #NLProc, generative models and text applications. Deadline 6 Jan. @ICComputing@imperial_nlp https://t.co/bZbYyqT1cc
Arriving in Riyadh just in time to join in the celebrations of this historic day. Looking forward to welcoming the world with warm Saudi hospitality 💚 🇸🇦
(1/10) Excited to share one of the most elegant works I’ve been working on: Parallelizing Linear Transformers with the Delta Rule over Sequence Length! 🎉

The images that I see coming out of Gaza each day—of shredded children, piles of twisted corpses, dehumanisation in torture camps, people being burned alive—are morally indistinguishable from the images I have seen in Holocaust museums. Pure evil on a horrifying scale.
