Ml/vision/nlp. Just finished my masters, after a shift from mech eng. exited to build cool stuff and learn!

I find it unfair that new measures continue to be introduced, regarding workers from the US, or for work permit extensions in Canada, but I miss the eligibility for all these measures by simply 13 days - despite the fact that a majority of my initial pgwp was held during covid

@SeanFraserMP I have lived in Canada for 11 years, completed an undergrad and a Masters degree from UBC and SFU, spending over 200,000 dollars on tuition. I am waiting for my PR application to be processed(20 months processing time) and despite all this, i still cannot work since

[Sushrut Dhaka @sushDH]

my PGWP expired on 7th Sept, 2021, 13 days before the range for all your extension measures for work permits.

I have applied to over a 1000 jobs and am struggling to find an employer that is willing to sponsor me, even though my field of Ml/AI is in high demand.

At @MSFTResearch we had early access to the marvelous #GPT4 from @OpenAI for our work on @bing. We took this opportunity to document our experience. We're so excited to share our findings. In short: time to face it, the sparks of #AGI have been ignited.

@CitImmCanada if my initial pgwp expired 13 days before the 2022 facilitative measure deadline (sept 7, 2021 instead of sept 20, 2021 onwards), can i still make a case/appeal to be included under the 2022 facilitative measure?

What happens when we train the largest vision-language model and add in robot experiences?
The result is PaLM-E 🌴🤖, a 562-billion parameter, general-purpose, embodied visual-language generalist - across robotics, vision, and language.

Object detection is a fundamental problem in computer vision. Although Vision Transformers (ViTs) achieve state-of-the-art performance today, the history of object detection proceeded in three distinct generations of innovation… 🧵 [1/7]

Claude, @AnthropicAI's powerful ChatGPT alternative, was trained with "Constitutional AI".

Constitutional AI is particularly interesting since it uses less human feedback than other methods, making it more scalable.

Let's dive into how Constitutional AI works in 13 tweets!

Microsoft Research has released BioGPT, a large language model trained on biomedical research literature. The model achieves better-than-human performance on answering questions from the biomedical literature, as evaluated on PubMedQA. The code for the model has been publicly released, and the weights for the large 1.5B model are expected to be released soon as well.

Since prompting, instruction tuning, RLHF, ChatGPT etc are such new and fast-moving topics, I haven't seen many university course lectures covering this content.

So we made some new slides for this year's CS224n: NLP w/ Deep Learning course at @Stanford!

@TransLink i can choose between 145, R5 or 144? i heard the 145 is not running?

[Sushrut Dhaka @sushDH]

@TransLink are there any buses going up to SFU burnaby mt? i am trying to figure out which route to take

[Sushrut Dhaka @sushDH]

@adamwiemerslage curious what you would consider a good project for say a 3 credit course, assuming students are enrolled in multiple other courses and not solely working on the nlp project(which im assuming is a part of the total grade for the course itself, along with other assignments etc) ?
