A three‑month pilot in a Midwestern bottling plant shows what happens when AI moves beyond chat and into decision-making, where constraints shift, stakes are real, and answers must hold. https://t.co/sDGaEXepa8

Designing AI isn’t just about performance. It’s about tradeoffs that affect people and the planet. In “The Shape of Things to Come,” hear Doug Burger, Amy Luers, and Ishai Menache on why applying AI responsibly may be key to addressing the climate crisis. https://t.co/dUa4OgUHO9

phi-3 is here, and it's ... good :-).

I made a quick short demo to give you a feel of what phi-3-mini (3.8B) can do. Stay tuned for the open weights release and more announcements tomorrow morning!

(And ofc this wouldn't be complete without the usual table of benchmarks!)

[Reuben Bond @reubenbond]

This work is based on research by Andrew Newell, @gkliot, @imenache1 et al: https://t.co/76JGGXng9Q

[Reuben Bond @reubenbond]

Here's something @BehluliLedjon & I have been working on: locality-aware repartitioning for @msftorleans! It shuffles grains between nodes in the cluster to reduce cross-network calls, resulting in 30% to 110% throughput improvements in early benchmarks.

Looking forward to meeting folks at #mlsys'23 this week. Our paper on VM allocation with lifetime predictions will be presented on TUE (outstanding paper award recipient). https://t.co/4cp5IOgnsL

אם "לעקוב אחר המדע" זה לטעון:

שמחלימים פחות מוגנים ממחוסנים

שמסיכות בד מגינות מאירוסולים

שתו ירוק מפחית הדבקות

שחיסון ילדים נחוץ להגן על מבוגרים

שלחיסון לקורונה תופעות לוואי זניחות

שגלים לעולם לא דועכים מעצמם אלא רק בשל מגבלות/חיסונים

אז כמדען אני מתבייש ב"מדע"

[Ishai Menache @imenache1]

@yollancohen חבל שאת ממשיכה להתמקד בהפחדות מיותרות של הציבור.

[Prof. Udi Qimron 😏 אודי קימרון @UdiQimron]

האומיקרון הוא סולם. חלק משתמשים בו כדי לרדת מהעץ, וטוב שכך. הם רואים לאן הרוח נושבת.

משרד הבריאות משתמש בו כדי להמשיך לטפס. כמו מהמר כפייתי שמכפיל כשלא הולך. ההתרסקות קרובה.

[Ishai Menache @imenache1]

@sangeetha_a_j Great news! Looking forward to reading the pre-print!
