Stanford Computer Science has so much alpha because its classes update within months of real-world research.

Most other top universities in the world don't do that, and "premier" institutions in other countries are sometimes 15-25yrs out of date.

Best part: it's free online.

Stop saying vector search retrieves the *most relevant* items to your search query.

It doesn’t.

It retrieves the *most semantically similar* items.

Similarity and relevancy are not the same.

In the post, we tell you how to get the most out of the course, what to expect, and how to navigate the materials. We are still adding a few lessons, but 95% of them are on the site.

This is a unique course with 30+ legendary instructors @fly_upside_down @mlpowered @haileysch__ @sophiamyang @jeremyphoward @johnowhitaker @ankrgyl @corbtt @marksaroufim @eugeneyan @BEBischof @sh_reya @dan_s_becker @vanstriendaniel @JoeEHoover @charles_irl @winglian @TheZachMueller @simonw @stevenheidel @abhi1thakur @TravisAddair @freddy_alfonso_ @hwchase17 @JnBrymn @jxnlco

Our paid students got over 3k of compute credits, office hours, and an active discord that was so much fun. I'm not sure we can ever replicate what happened there. However, the least we can do is open all of the knowledge and materials. Enjoy!

I started my career in Data Science back in 2016 ⏳

Being self-taught, YouTube has been a great source of learning for me!

Here are some of the channels I've ardently followed:

We're releasing Look Mom No Cloud today — a Linux + Mac desktop GUI + compiler to run local models

We're initially rolling this out as a private beta to collect user feedback and suggestions, and converge on the ideal UX for developers to build local AI apps

The move from public, indexed forums to private Discord/Slack chats is like a mini Dark Age.

@hi_sonu_ Note that this is the latest entry to my “Zero to Hero” lecture series. If you’re a beginner I would watch the playlist from start and in order and then I think yes, you should be able to get pretty far.

[rob🏴 @rob_mcrobberson]

you know just because you ask an LLM to describe its inner state doesnt mean that its answer was the result of it actually inspecting any kind of inner state

lmao even
