Bullish on academia rebuilding itself from the ashes. Meanwhile, I got 4 moderately ok to really good reviews at ICLR. There’s still gold to be found in the pile of manure that publishing in this field has become.

Do you really expect me to cite and be familiar with a paper that was only published in Spanish in some random workshop I’ve never heard of? lol

[1/9] While pretraining data might be hitting a wall, novel methods for modeling it are just getting started! We introduce future summary prediction (FSP), where the model predicts future sequence embeddings to reduce teacher forcing & shortcut learning. 📌Predict a learned

Hello everyone. A friend told me that I shouldn't post this message because it made me and other PhD students look bad. But I actually think it's important to show how PhD students (especially foreign ones) have to deal not only with research-related difficulties, but also with

Thanks everyone for the interest. A small FAQ - Yes, you need to be enrolled in a PhD program. - I’m (painfully) aware visas are complicated. I was able to intern twice at FAIR, and once at Google, with a Brazilian passport. I’m hoping this won’t be an issue for you as well.

Best part about finishing the PhD is never having to bend to the IELTS/TOEFL mafia ever again.

Excited to share our work Set Block Decoding! A new paradigm combining next-token-prediction and masked (or discrete diffusion) models, allowing parallel decoding without any architectural changes and with exact KV cache. Arguably one of the simplest ways to accelerate LLMs!
