I’ll be at NeurIPS from Dec 1-8! 🌊🏖️ Excited to catch up with old and new friends! Let’s grab coffee ☕️ or have a quick chat if you’re attending! #NeurIPS2025

@krandiash Sonic! This is awesome! Congrats Karan and team.

We've raised $100M from Kleiner Perkins, Index Ventures, Lightspeed, and NVIDIA. Today we're introducing Sonic-3 - the state-of-the-art model for realtime conversation. What makes Sonic-3 great: - Breakthrough naturalness - laughter and full emotional range - Lightning fast -

Excited to finally share our #NeurIPS2025 paper "🔮PurpCode: Reasoning for Safer Code Generation"!  🙌 👐 First post-training recipe for training safe code reasoning models 🚀 SOTA for cybersafety + utility, outperforming Sonnet 4, o4-mini, R1 🥇 Winner of 2025 Amazon Nova AI Challenge 📝 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2507.19060 🧵👇 1/11

Excited to finally share our new paper titled "CPU Autoscaling With a Kernel of Truth" at APSys 2025. Huge thanks to my amazing collaborators and advisors @tianyin_xu, @SaugataGhose Catch my virtual talk tonight if you're in Seoul! Paper: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/37…

It’s wild how much chatGPT has supercharged learning… I use it regularly to understand topics across fields like biology, economics, politics, etc, which ordinarily would take me hours of research & browsing

I'm excited to announce NN-CIFT got into @NeurIPSConf 2025 (featuring a fancy, new title)💃💃🌴Can't wait to discuss it with everyone!! Thank you @dilekhakkanitur and @convai_uiuc 🎉🎉

@OfficialTanvi Congrats!!!! 🎊🍾🎈

I've successfully defended my PhD thesis on automated information seeking! Extremely grateful to my advisor @hengjinlp, committee members and all collaborators. Next, I'll be joining @GoogleDeepMind as a research scientist! Link to defense slides: docs.google.com/presentation/d…

@gangi_official @hengjinlp @GoogleDeepMind Congrats! 🎉

Amazing work! 😯

🔬Interested in training AlphaFold3 faster, at scale, and beyond NVIDIA GPU? Now you can. AlphaFold3 is a major leap in biomolecular modeling, but behind the scenes, it introduces severe system bottlenecks: 🧠 2D EvoAttention spikes memory usage 📉 Retrieval-augmented training pipeline causes long GPU idle time ⛔ Frequent but memory-intensive ops slow everything down Today, I'm excited to announce MegaFold, a fully open-source system to make AlphaFold3 training fast, scalable, and cross-platform on both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. MegaFold delivers: ⚡ Up to 1.73x / 1.62x faster training on NVIDIA H100 / AMD MI250 🧬 Up to 1.35× longer sequences compared to PyTorch baseline Key features: 🚀 Memory-Efficient EvoAttention via portable Triton kernels 💡 Ahead-of-Time Caching to eliminate GPU idle time in retrieval pipelines 🔗 DeepFusion for reducing overhead of small but frequent memory-intensive AF3 ops 📘 Project page: supercomputing-system-ai-lab.github.io/projects/megaf… 📄 Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2506.20686 💻 Code: github.com/Supercomputing… 🤝 MegaFold is developed in collaboration between UIUC SSAIL Lab and researchers from University of Missouri and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Kudos to the brilliant team: Hoa La, Ahan Gupta, Alex Morehead, Jianlin Cheng #AlphaFold3 #AI #ProteinFolding #Bioinformatics #AMD #Triton #CrossPlatform #OpenSource

@AkshayGoindani1 Thanks @AkshayGoindani1 looks like we might be quick to assume these gains since evils did not reproduce the baselines effectively x.com/shashwatgoel7/…

@shradhasgl Random or incorrect reward signals can yield good performance using RLVR. However these gains are mostly observed in Qwen models. rethink-rlvr.notion.site/Spurious-Rewar…

Can someone pls give a tldr of what happened in RLVR this past week…

Such interesting insights!! 😮 Esp for cultural linguistic analysis of LLMs

@lmathur_ @GoogleDeepMind Congrats Leena!

started working @GoogleDeepMind as a student researcher, and I'm excited for the summer ahead!

no I am not moving yet, just polling 🙂‍↔️

For ppl who moved from South Bay to SF or vice versa, what made u do it? What did you like / dislike? and would u recommend it?

@adityakusupati @_keysarasara @X @UW Congratulations!!! 🎊

In other news, I got married to the beautiful and brilliant @_keysarasara this Sunday! Why am I posting this to @X? A serendipitous tweet in August 2021 of her arrival @UW in my feed led me to extend my help and rest is history 🤣 P.S: Hi Sanju, I finally liked the tweet 😜

@allenytics Haha i feel it def is a skill issue, just need to practice more

@shradhasgl one of my smartest friends struggles with driving as well, definitely not a skill issue

Amongst all the amazing year recaps, it’s easy to feel fomo and discount your work. So here’s me recounting my achievements :) - Graduated from MS CS at UIUC - Siebel Scholar for class of 2024 - Joined Netflix as a research engineer - Moved to a new city - Made new friends! :)

@pthangeda_ Haha yes I do have a license, did the same school

@shradhasgl You probably already got a license? all of my friends who went to "I can pass driving school" in Champaign did pass their driving test lmao
