This is exactly why open-source frameworks like FeynRL matter more than ever. Open weights are NOT enough. Open AI needs open training recipes, alg, etc. You should be able to understand training, modify it, & build new algorithms, optimizers, recipes. github.com/FeynRL-project/Fe…
mythos will be bad ON PURPOSE on ai "frontier llm research" tasks, this is very very sad for the research community also the fact that this is un purpose not visible to the user is crazy

Truly an honor. Didn’t sleep much but we did it!
Thank you to everyone on the organizing and steering committee for putting together a great ML for Systems workshop at NeurIPS!

🔥 LLMs can do OOD reasoning:We show that we can teach algorithms to LLMs with only three examples and it generalizes to much longer input length as much as the context length allows! We can also teach multiple algorithms,compose them to teach complex ones & use them as tools! 🔥
“LLMs can’t even do addition” 📄🚨We show that they CAN add! To teach algos to LLMs, the trick is to describe the algo in enough detail so that there is no room for misinterpretation w/ @Azade_na @hugo_larochelle @AaronCourville @bneyshabur @HanieSedghi arxiv.org/abs/2211.09066

Excited to share that our work has been published in Nature! Our RL agent generates chip layouts in just a few hours, whereas human experts can take months. These superhuman AI-generated layouts were used in Google's latest AI accelerator (TPU-v5)! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Thrilled to announce that our work on RL for chip floorplanning was published in Nature & used in production to design next generation Google TPUs, with potential to save thousands of hours of engineering effort for each next generation ASIC: nature.com/articles/s41586-0… (1/7)

Autoregressive graph generation is powerful but slow. Our recent work reduces its complexity from O(V^2) to O((E+V) log V), with sublinear mem cost and training parallelism. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2006.15502 Code: github.com/google-research/g… w/ @Azade_na @liyuajia @daibond_alpha Dale

Check out TraDE, our new transformer based density estimator arxiv.org/abs/2004.02441. It beats NAF, BNAF, TAN, FFJORD, NSF, AEM on reference datasets. Works well for #bumblebee, too (left: original, right: estimate). @rasoolfa @pratikac and Jonas Mueller are the real stars here.

Today we are excited to release video recordings of lectures from "Advanced Deep Learning and Reinforcement Learning", a course on deep RL taught at @UCL earlier this year by DeepMind researchers: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL… Enjoy!

We've seen @BostonDynamics' infamous robot dog open doors, and climb stairs. But now it can navigate complicated construction sites, and do detailed work inspections too 👀: wired.trib.al/0CcVEmR

If you want to do ML research, consider applying for the 2019 Google AI Residency program! You'll have the opportunity to conduct cutting-edge research working in a wide variety of areas, and this year we're expanding to host residents in even more locations.
Applications for the 2019 Google AI Residency program are now open! Visit g.co/airesidency/apply for more information on how to apply. To learn more about the accomplishments of the recently graduated second class of residents, visit ↓ goo.gl/5QZbsF

If you care about the United States being a place where the best and brightest students from around the world come to study, and then stay to create amazing new companies or do ground-breaking research, this chart should make should make you very concerned.
America has long been a magnet for talent from around the world.
