My dear friends, I’d like to show you my latest toy project
Introducing Handwired: turn your regular JavaScript code into a neural net!
- no training
- exact outputs vs the JS program
- fully differentiable
All runnable in a browser, without GPU

New preprint!
Q: How accurate is GPT-3 at predicting Dx and triage advice compared to Harvard docs and to an average person Googling their symptoms?
For Dx, GPT-3 is much more accurate than your average person and almost as accurate as the Harvard docs! For triage, not so much.

Great work! Glad we could contribute in a small way to this massive effort.
Excited to announce the @hiti_lab's release of the EMory BrEast Imaging Dataset (EMBED) on @AWSOpenData containing 20,000 women and over 500,000 mammographic images. @judywawira @ImonBanerjee6 @EmoryRadiology #breastcancer #AI

ChatGPT is coming soon to the Azure OpenAI Service, which is now generally available, as we help customers apply the world’s most advanced AI models to their own business imperatives. azure.microsoft.com/en-us/bl…

📣 CRFM announces PubMedGPT, a new 2.7B language model that achieves a new SOTA on the US medical licensing exam. The recipe is simple: a standard Transformer trained from scratch on PubMed (from The Pile) using @mosaicml on the MosaicML Cloud, then fine-tuned for the QA task.
Fascinating: glioblastomas form scale-free networks, with small populations of activating periodic tumor cells in hubs.
Target the network hub cells; bring down the network.

"4 questions on AI"

Wherein ChatGPT very confidently hallucinates non-existent academic references.
If we could hook up PubMed to ChatGPT and have it produce actual references, this could be incredibly useful.
Asked ChatGPT an interesting onc clinical question. To my surprise received a definitive answer but when I asked for the reference: it manufactured a fake JAMA Oncology citation and Phase 3 trial. 😂

Very excited to have 2 new papers in press today in Lancet Digital Health, alongside an editorial from the journal highlighting our work.
I am immensely proud of the work we have done here and honestly think this is the most important work I have been involved in to date 🥳

You don't want your pneumonia models running on bone x-rays. Understanding high-level image content is important for building datasets, but also a crucial first step in successful medical AI deployment.
Check out the @kaggle competition:

OK, this is one I’ve been waiting to share for a *long* time – the first ever demonstration of deep reinforcement learning on a nuclear fusion research device! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
Oh no, neural networks can feel pain too?!

We’ve made public what we believe is the best and most extensively evaluated AI system for breast MRI. It's as good as radiologists, works across all demographics/cancer subtypes--and may reduce patient biopsies too!
Pre-print: medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…, and a short thread below.
