There's been a fair bit of buzz about Kolmogorov-Arnold networks online lately. Some research papers were posted around claiming that they offer better accuracy or faster training compared to traditional neural networks/MLPs for the same parameter count.
Trackmania: the world's most competitive racing game. In this post, we begin our journey towards training a neural network to superhuman performance, by chronicling the history of previous attempts.
This post translates a Python program to a recurrent neural network. It visualizes the network and explains each step of the translation in detail.
Finetunes of Mistral, Llama3 and Solar LLMs are more accurate for my test data than OpenAI’s models.
This article explains a simple model of how minds might work. I’m motivated by the success of AI-based language models to look at the future of digital minds. I’ll present a conceptual data-flow architecture that can account for several key features of minds: the ability to initiate actions (agency), learning…
Understanding the real world is not always easy. A Python simulation can help. And let's find ways of making it efficient, too.
Embeddings encourage engineers to go full YOLO because it’s actually rewarding to do so!
CriticGPT, a model based on GPT-4, writes critiques of ChatGPT responses to help human trainers spot mistakes during RLHF
I summarise the kinds of evaluations that are needed for a structured data generation task.
There is a new clear best (non-tiny) LLM.
We’re introducing a suite of AI-powered features to help you push past creative blocks and bring your best ideas to life.
Claude 3 Haiku and Sonnet are now available in the AWS Marketplace for the US Intelligence Community and in AWS GovCloud.
Too many students struggle with math. In fourth grade, only 36% of students are proficient in math. By ... Read more
The wait is over. Starting today, anyone can hail a ride with Waymo in San Francisco. Rain, shine or Karl the Fog, just download the app, and ride.
UC Santa Cruz researchers show that it is possible to eliminate the most computationally expensive element of running large language models, called matrix multiplication, while maintaining performance.
I gave a talk about accessing Large Language Models from the command-line last week as part of the Mastering LLMs: A Conference For Developers & Data Scientists six week long …
A journey into Kindle A.I. slop hell with Leah Beckmann
llama.ttf is a font file which is also a large language model and an inference engine for that model.
Wild ramblings, raport from the field about choosing Vector Database for a particular project and a little bit of a rant about the current state of AI and how it's perceived, why human brains are a wonder of nature, and why it's far from 'thinking' and 'consciousness'.
UW researchers found that ChatGPT consistently ranked resumes with disability-related honors and credentials — such as the “Tom Wilson Disability Leadership Awa
Neural radiance fields provide state-of-the-art view synthesis quality but tend to be slow to render. One reason is that they make use of volume rendering, thus requiring many samples (and model queries) per ray at render time. Although this representation is flexible and easy to optimize, most real-world objects can…
Acknowledgements First, I would like to acknowledge my friends and kind internet strangers who helped me with this post. This post heavily adapts from ...
An article studying the use of LLMs fror designing circuit boards
Video-to-audio research uses video pixels and text prompts to generate rich soundtracks
Introducing Claude 3.5 Sonnet—our most intelligent model yet. Sonnet now outperforms competitor models and Claude 3 Opus on key evaluations, at twice the speed.
Using ONNX with WebGPU and WebAssembly leads to 20x speedup over multi-threaded and 550x speedup over single-threaded CPU performance. Learn how.
Update (October 2024): In response to numerous requests from external developers, we have open-sourced a version of our Enzyme to React Testing Library (RTL) conversion tool. You can now find it on npm, along with detailed instructions on how to integrate and use it in your projects. In the world of frontend…
The recent innovations in the AI space, most notably those such as GPT-4, obviously have far-reaching implications for society, ranging from the utopian eliminating of drudgery, to the dystopian damage to the livelihood of artists in a capitalist society, to existential threats to humanity itself.
