All I want in my career path is never having to interact with protobufs for any reason

@shaiunterslak @googledevs @GoogleCloudTech @googlecloud this is also impacting me

[Micah @micahjsmith]

@rasbt We previously did a very similar exercise in the context of clinical LMs

[Micah @micahjsmith]

@JSEllenberg GPT-4 works better in almost all non-English languages than GPT-3.5 works in English (on academic multiple choice benchmarks at least)

[Micah @micahjsmith]

@GaryMarcus Gary, this is one the most nonsensical things I’ve seen you post

[Eric Lehman @lehmer16]

Recent results have suggested that LLMs encode a surprising amount of clinical knowledge. These results raise an important question about the role of smaller specialized clinical models: do we still need clinical LMs? We explore this question in our paper: https://t.co/CK7ZAoBy7W

@ZoeSchiffer Just scrolled past 6 Elon replies in a row

[Micah @micahjsmith]

@davidasilva Yes I made the switch a few years ago. keep rolling with Atom by all means -- if you find that extensions become unmaintained, a switch to VS Code is natural and painless

[Micah @micahjsmith]

Atom was an excellent IDE and a worthy torchbearer on the way to VS Code

Models such as Stable Diffusion are trained on copyrighted, trademarked, private, and sensitive images.

Yet, our new paper shows that diffusion models memorize images from their training data and emit them at generation time.

it’s pretty remarkable how switching from beef to pork/chicken reduces carbon emissions far more than going from pork/chicken to vegetarian

@sjwhitmore wow

[Joshua Browder @Joshuabrowder]

If you have recently been laid off and hold an H1B visa, we would love to chat with you @donotpay.

25% of our team are not US citizens and we can move quickly.

We have never laid off anyone in our 7 year company history and don’t plan on it

[Micah @micahjsmith]

So much compassion for friends/colleagues who are on H1B. Seems like a system that is brutally unfair and difficult to navigate.

[Deedy @deedydas]

Tech layoffs affect immigrants the most!

5–15% of the 100k+ layoffs are H-1B holders.

In 60 days (30-45 in practice), they must find a new job or be deported from the US.

Families who've been here 10+yrs are told "We don't need you anymore. Leave."
