NeurIPS has a record-breaking number of 25,000 submissions this year already. It's crazy but not entirely unexpected. Here is the scaling over the years, with a conservative projection. How do we even run a conference and review at this massive scale?

what do you teach at the first-year graduate course on machine learning, in this era of LLM and large-scale compute? here's my experiment on answering this question: let's teach everything that admits SGD and that is not LLM, and ask students to read old papers.

Academia should focus on discovering simplifying and unifying principles and mechanisms behind intelligence; and industry is obviously better equipped to manifest and scale up. That is the same as physics/mechanics to building big airplanes... But I do not believe the current
I agree with the whole thread, it’s very well put. But let’s not forget the whole current focused bet mode across all big labs is entirely based on inventions made in the grassroots mode. Both modes need each other, although their weighting/footprint may vary over time.

I see some vocal objections: "Sora is not learning physics, it's just manipulating pixels in 2D". I respectfully disagree with this reductionist view. It's similar to saying "GPT-4 doesn't learn coding, it's just sampling strings". Well, what transformers do is just manipulating
