If you are a student or academic researcher and want to make progress towards human-level AI: >>>DO NOT WORK ON LLMs<<< LLMs are an off ramp. Thousands of engineers are working on LLMs with enormous computing resources. The only way you could possibly contribute is by analyzing
Great talk by @ylecun yesterday, at the scientific symposium for the opening of the @ELLISInst_Tue! I took the liberty of summarizing one of his main take-home messages...

Can we rely on the most popular dataset for LLMs evaluation? Maybe not. We discovered several MMLU subsets with incorrect questions and answers or ambiguities that affect LLMs evaluation. We share MMLU-Redux 3000 re-annotated questions and analyses error detection! Take a look!
🚨 Are We Done with MMLU? In our new paper "Are We Done with MMLU?" we identify errors in MMLU and find that some subsets are riddled with errors. We propose MMLU-Redux with 3,000 re-annotated questions across 30 subjects. 📜 https://t.co/0G6KdAaL7x (1/n)

In the tutorial "Explainable Recommender Systems with Knowledge Graphs and Language Models", w/@gballoccu, Gianni Fenu, @fmaridina, @mirkomarras, we cover explainable recommender systems through knowledge graphs (KGs), with techniques that combine language models and KGs.
