On AlphaTensor’s new matrix multiplication algorithms
Two acquaintances independently asked about this today, so it seems worth a write-up: recently (as of this writing), DeepMind published a new paper about a new practical fast matrix multiplication …

Don't trust large context windows
I recently watched a video that put a name on something I'd been feeling. The author splits an LLM's context window into two zones. There's the smart zone , where the model is sharp, and the dumb zone , where attention drops off and the model starts forgetting what you told it five minutes ago. The cutoff sits…

I flagged two research papers for fake authors and both were accepted as orals
We reviewed 22 ML conference submissions this summer. Fifteen had fabricated citations, hallucinated authors, or clear LLM slop, so we complain about that a bit, and release the paper references audit we now run.
