After years in AI research with top teams, I’m moving closer to where it matters most: consumers. We’re building Asmi AI — your AI Chief of Staff (asmiai.com). It’s effortless: preps you before meetings, surfaces key signals & drafts follow-ups. 🎥 First look here:

🚨New #CVPR2023 work!🚨 HiREST: a holistic, hierarchical benchmark (+joint model) of multimodal retrieval & step-by-step summarization for videos. hirest-cvpr2023.github.io @AbhayZala7* @jmin__cho* @SatwikKottur @ccsasuke BarlasOğuz @YasharMehdad @mohitban47 @uncnlp @MetaAI 🧵👇

If you are a *PhD student*, please send your CV and a short (one paragraph) statement of research with desired start date(s), to
