my google cloud run instance has shut down and is refusing to start back up. No recent code changes, been running fine for 3 days with high traffic - anyone at @googledevs able to help please?

Apparently, attention is not all you need.
You also need a clean diaper and a full belly.
Lessons learned after Camilla Isla Stubbs arrived on March 19, 2024.
Welcome world.

@lesianlen @Twitter Congrats man, excited to see what’s next for you

This past Monday was my last day working for @Twitter . I’d like to thank my managers, mentors and colleagues for making the last ~3 years a great learning experience for me. Forever grateful for the opportunity 🙏🏾🙏🏾. #LoveWhereYouWorked

Should we train our own large language model (LLM) on domain-specific data from scratch?
Researchers at Bloomberg did just that and shared a detailed technical report describing the dataset, model configuration, and training procedure.

@JSEllenberg GPT-4 works better in almost all non-English languages than GPT-3.5 works in English (on academic multiple choice benchmarks at least)
English
I'd imagine GPT & variants work less well away from English and *much* less well in languages with really small web presence. Is that right?

@GaryMarcus Gary, this is one the most nonsensical things I’ve seen you post
English
Remember this meme, how GPT-4 was supposed to be 571 times better?
Is it?

Recent results have suggested that LLMs encode a surprising amount of clinical knowledge. These results raise an important question about the role of smaller specialized clinical models: do we still need clinical LMs? We explore this question in our paper: arxiv.org/abs/2302.08091

@davidasilva Yes I made the switch a few years ago. keep rolling with Atom by all means -- if you find that extensions become unmaintained, a switch to VS Code is natural and painless

Models such as Stable Diffusion are trained on copyrighted, trademarked, private, and sensitive images.
Yet, our new paper shows that diffusion models memorize images from their training data and emit them at generation time.

Spending 10 days in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and the temperature has been ranging from -35F to -20F.
I’ve been running outside every day and have learned that for cold like this you have to be super cautious about not exposing any skin. Every day my eyelashes freeze

If you have recently been laid off and hold an H1B visa, we would love to chat with you @donotpay.
25% of our team are not US citizens and we can move quickly.
We have never laid off anyone in our 7 year company history and don’t plan on it
English
So much compassion for friends/colleagues who are on H1B. Seems like a system that is brutally unfair and difficult to navigate.

Tech layoffs affect immigrants the most! 5–15% of the 100k+ layoffs are H-1B holders. In 60 days (30-45 in practice), they must find a new job or be deported from the US. Families who've been here 10+yrs are told "We don't need you anymore. Leave." 10+ tips to stay– 1/12
