i tweet about neural IR, model evals, and lifting weights.
📚 Awesome Information Retrieval 🔍 I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite IR papers from the past few years. If you’re new to the field and want to understand how Transformer-based retrieval models work before building your RAG application, this should serve as a great…

apparently im a boomer but why do people run webinars on sites like maven instead of just dropping them on youtube? i have zero interest in signing up for some gated shit when i could just search it on the big G
i don't get the hate towards slack, it's so much better compared to the alternatives

waking up to the slightest hint of visible elevation for the first time in months is wild

this thread is gold
all the gains made by labs in terms of capabilities have been predominantly through RL. seeing it as a way to censor rather than teach behavior is a take we should have left behind in 2023. there is an obvious reason why teaching behavior is powerful beyond safety alignment.
slack but it sorts the channels by the most recent message received in any thread
+50% growth in state of ai usage survey respondents in the last day, thank you! now pushing 222, join us: stateof(dot)ai/survey unsurprisingly, folks use chatgpt most, followed by claude and google... ...whereas only 8% use meta regularly.
“We recruited 16 experienced open-source developers to work on 246 real tasks in their own repositories (avg 22k+ stars, 1M+ lines of code).” So they sound like reasonably experienced software devs. "Developers have a range of experience using AI tools: 93% have prior…
Excellent writeup and a great experimental setup to show that these NIAH plots you see everywhere fall apart once we move past toy inputs and the model has real distractions (which is typical in actual retrieval scenarios). Big fan of the content Chroma has been putting out!

fun fact: the new grok goonbots are really just a way to collect data so they can sell you hyperpersonalized variants of optimus
brother i don't think this is gonna help with the birth rates
Good lord.... Bruh
