Some learnings from consistent sleep tracking: * Alcohol isn't worth it (not even a single glass) * Travel & Jetlag (9h time diff) are challenging, even w/ a good protocol * Late work (touching laptop within 2h of sleep onset) isn't ideal
I thought @bryan_johnson's idea of building your life around asleep was ridiculous, but after trying it for a week, I'm sold. → Brain works better → Feel awesome all the time → Get more done in less time (Parkinson's Law) Caveat: I do not have children.

Today, we presented our corpus of 100,000 relational databases at @NeurIPSConf which we built to foster research on large foundational models for relational databases. We are looking forward to see how this corpus is going to be used. Great work Liane & Micha @tuda_systems @DFKI
Happy to share that our work on WikiDBs - a large-scale corpus of relational databases - was accepted as a spotlight to the Dataset & Benchmarks track @NeurIPSConf. This is an important step for enabling foundation models on structured databases rather than text or images.

Our recent workshop paper puts Vision-Language Models like #GPT4o to the test with Bongard problems🧩 We show that VLMs struggle to identify concepts that are quite intuitive to humans. Still a long way to go for human-like visual reasoning! 🤖🧠 arXiv: https://t.co/JKdAXvJwfA
