I shared a controversial take the other day at an event and I decided to write it down in a longer format: I’m afraid AI won't give us a "compressed 21st century". The "compressed 21st century" comes from Dario's "Machine of Loving Grace" and if you haven’t read it, you probably

Good at language 🟰 good at thinking? Not true for LMs! Even if we might think that when talking to them 💬 Meet Holmes 🔎, a benchmark to assess linguistic competence📚 of LMs untwined from other skills 🔥 Spoiler 🤫 Architecture is one key! (1/🧵) 🌐 https://t.co/4iXP5A4TC8

Followers from obvious fake-accounts has massively increased for me over the last weeks. Anybody else experiencing this?

Just #ARR things #NLProc

Just realized that deactivating chat history (e.g. bc you don't want OpenAI to store & use your data for model training) also deactivates all of the fancy GPT-4 functionalities, such as plugins or code interpreter. I guess the $20 subscription is only a part of your "payment" :/

Just logged into my OpenReview account and noticed that the papers from the ARR October cycle have been assigned with a first (small) task due Saturday. However there was no notification at all 🫤

Are Emergent Abilities in Large Language Models just In-Context Learning? Spoiler: YES 🤯 Through a series of over 1,000 experiments, we provide compelling evidence: https://t.co/0AmNp1ltR9 Our results allay safety concerns regarding latent hazardous abilities. A🧵👇 #NLProc

Thanks a lot for the invitation🙏, I really enjoyed this retreat. It was a great mix of insightful presentations, discussions and activity.

Since the launch of #GPT4 in March, researchers worldwide have been exploring its capabilities. So have our colleagues Tilman Beck (@devnull90) and Martin Tutek (@mtutek) at UKP Lab, generously supported by a @Microsoft @Azure4Research Grant which has just been extended! 🎉🎉🎉
