Every student learns that correlation does not imply causation. Few learn the converse: absence of correlation does not imply absence of causation.

This essay traces how economics came to think about causality. The story involves philosophers, statisticians, econometricians, and computer scientists. It spans three centuries and at least two methodological revolutions. And it remains, in important ways, unfinished. Link: https://t.co/U5YePoE4yD

Governments are looking to open source as a way to regulate AI, assuming that openness will result in better transparency, security, and competition. But those assumptions seemed to be based more on theory than evidence.

New evidence shows that while open source can be a tool for accountability and security, but under specific conditions depending on how models designed, maintained, and governed.

Web browsers are the biggest market you never thought about. In a new paper (with @j_haese), we study what happened in the open source community when Microsoft moved to Chromium as the core technology for their web browser Edge.

[Jérémie Haese @j_haese]

Excited to share our new paper on how Microsoft's adoption of Chromium for Edge led to increased contributions, higher security patching activity, and shifts in market share. Key insights for tech firms considering open source software strategies!

Is Cosine-Similarity of Embeddings Really About Similarity?

Netflix cautions against blindly using cosine similarity as a measure of semantic similarity between learned embeddings, as it can yield arbitrary and meaningless results.

On 9 March, some things might change:

1. you can message from Whatsapp to Telegram

2. in the App Store you can buy directly from the provider or competing platform

3. Amazon no longer ranks own products at the top of a search
