Yes, I can read it perfectly fine. It relies on a lot of notation that AI researchers are familiar with.

World Models is a good paper, but is definitely not the top three most significant RL papers.

But is autodiff combined with a blackbox jit a real solution? The jit either works for your new model or it does not. If it does not, you can do pretty much nothing about it, other than ping jax authors or get your own hands dirty with jax

You only need a few seconds to read the title, and you can cut away 150 out of those 200 with that. If it's a paper simply not in your area of research, you don't need to bother. You can then read the abstract (30 seconds) for the

So in the case of AI/ML, the fashionable new thing is unsupervised learning, self-supervised learning, reinforcement learning, GANS, etc. The played out problems are image classification, speech recognition, etc.

It's in the nature of social networks that new social networks don't look like old ones. Youtube is definitely a social network, and so is Twitch, Discord, TikTok, etc. Youtube has the additional advantage of having persistent cou

People were meme-ing the goose game hard much before its launch, and much before Dunkey covered it, but that probably helped sustain its exponential growth. More than streamer-friendly, it's Reddit- and Twitter-friendly. Any small clip

What do you think about this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_sexual_attraction ? Did you notice that you were particularly attracted to any of your half-siblings?

POs were a bit too limited for me. The sequencer isn't powerful enough to make anything more complex than basic chiptunes. Not to diss on PO. I was super hyped about it as well, and would have liked to know about its limitations before

Alec Holowka was a game dev who committed suicide recently after allegations of sexual assault by ex-girlfriend Zoe Quinn. He was the developer behind Night in the Woods. The NitW studio said they've cut ties with him after Quinn'

This is just plain factually incorrect. Around two million Chinese immigrate to other countries every year (net). Note also that it's similar to India's immigration rate, while India is doing much worse economically than China. So

What is this thought experiment meant to say? If the people of Liverpool or San Francisco want freedom and make their own country, many in the west would support such a thing. After Trump got elected, the separationism meme was spread in Ca

Small ads on the web are still more targeted than newspaper ads, since web ads appear on specific websites which are of interest to the user. If I visit a motorcycling forum, I should get motorcycling ads, and they can be effective even if

What you're saying and what's in the link seems to be consistent with the advice of refusing to talk to the police at all, and not to talk partially or to answer some questions and not answer other questions, or answering but chan

It indicates that the model is learning a good likelihood function, and that it has still not trained to convergence which makes the samples have lower likelihood scores than real text. That's all that's needed to make it a good r

I'm curious. What made you think that OpenAI Five is playing standard DOTA? I want to know what makes OpenAI propaganda so effective.

Is there any reason to believe that some other medium won't have this exact problem? For instance, if you were to meet a public figure at a public event, do you think they will behave any differently? To me it seems like this is more a

FWIW, Unity and Monogame are two popular game engines which deploy C# code to Mac and Linux using Mono. If a modern game runs on Mac/Linux, there's a high chance it's using C#/Mono. So to me, "niche" doesn&#x27

Consider instead that the person is an investor. But instead of investing money, they invest not only the initial idea, but also help solve some problems along the way. So, very similar to investors, but instead of money, the investors also

"merely" People deserve credit for taking an idea and running with it. Without Hinton's efforts (in 1987, 2006, or 2012), deep learning would have never seen the explosive growth.

How do you actually define "Fiduciary duty to the charter"? Since charters tend to be vague, and are definitely not legal documents, almost anything can be said to be aligned with the charter. Similarly, what's stopping an in
