GPT3 is powerful but blind. The future of Foundation Models will be embodied agents that proactively take actions, endlessly explore the world, and continuously self-improve. What does it take? In our NeurIPS Outstanding Paper “MineDojo”, we provide a blueprint for this future:🧵
With LLMs for science out there (#Galactica) we need new ethics rules for scientific publication. Existing rules regarding plagiarism, fraud, and authorship need to be rethought for LLMs to safeguard public trust in science. Long thread about trust, peer review, & LLMs. (1/23)
🪐 Introducing Galactica. A large language model for science.
Can summarize academic literature, solve math problems, generate Wiki articles, write scientific code, annotate molecules and proteins, and more.

In our new work - Algorithm Distillation - we show that transformers can improve themselves autonomously through trial and error without ever updating their weights.
No prompting, no finetuning. A single transformer collects its own data and maximizes rewards on new tasks.

Today at #ECCV2022 I'm giving a talk on "The risks and opportunities of academic startups" in the Industry Track. Hall KLM (1st floor) 15:45. I hope to make it interactive so come with questions.
Please see our blog post https://t.co/WtEZ06Q8JF for details & code. Also, we just got an oral at the #NeurIPS table representation learning workshop https://t.co/XOI1n3qyst 🎉Joint work with my outstanding students @noahholl, @SamuelMullr and @KEggensperger. 6/6
A selection of books on Algorithmic Differentiation (AD) also called Automatic Differentiation:
The backbone toolbox for differentiable programming and deep learning

This has been such an excellent year for software system design in ML. So, I compiled a list of some of my favorite papers 📜in MLOps.
Here are some of my favorite ones till date⤵️
Shreya Shankar releases an excellent real-world MLOps interview study with 18 ML engineers:
"When considered together, these responsibilities seem staggering -- how does anyone do MLOps, what are the unaddressed challenges, and what are the implications for tool builders?"

Since OpenAI released Whisper a three days ago, there have been some outstanding paper + code walkthroughs on AI Twitter + AI YouTube.
A few below if you haven't seen them:

New notebook: "Grokking Stable Diffusion"
Hopefully useful for anyone looking for content that goes deeper than just how to run the model!

Covering:
- The diffusion loop
- Messing with text embeddings
- img2img
- arbitrary guidance

Fresh record high prices for 🇩🇪 and 🇫🇷 electricity:
German 1-year forward: €725 per MWh
French 1-year forward: €870 per MWh
The 2010-2020 average was around €41 per MWh
