GFlowNets by Yoshua Bengio's group at the Université de Montréal provides a way for developing neural nets that can reason
arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2106.04399
"I’m excited by generative flow networks, or GFlowNets, an approach to training deep nets that my group started about a year ago. This idea is inspired by the way humans reason through a sequence of steps, adding a new piece of relevant information at each step. It’s like ...

Google research released a paper on a neural net that can forecast rain up to 12 hours ahead, as opposed to using time and compute intensive physics simulations on supercomputers. It can run on a colab notebook!

Great article on LLMs - MLE training is exactly lossy data compression! I know RLHF is changing the loss to maximize predicted human ratings, but it still feels like a bit like lipstick on a pig to me (although who doesnt like bbq now and then? ;) newyorker.com/tech/annals-of…

Automating mundane tasks should be Artificial Intelligence's ultimate goal, allowing us all to retire earlier. Ironic statement made by @elonmusk, a powerful player in the AI ecosystem:

Macron is doing the difficult, but right thing. The retirement age of 62 was set when lifespans were much shorter. It is impossible for a small number of workers to support a massive number of retirees.

If you think #ChatGPT is going to destroy Google search, have you heard of PaLM from Google Research? It has 540B parameters, almost three times bigger than #gpt3 with 175B parameters

On the same note, the current #layoffs at Google seems counterintuitive. Maybe someone would eventually put them out of business with the current trends in AI. It is most definitely fascinating to watch what happens in the next few years.
