I am excited to share our new monograph that dives deep into correlated noise mechanisms, one that enables real-world, production-grade differential privacy at scale, without compromising learning performance. The project started with a discussion over lunch in Google's Canopy.

U.S.R. Murthy and now Ray Laflamme! @UWaterloo lost two great pioneers of their fields in one summer :(.

I am not sure why @overleaf needs to track my IP address. For a privacy researcher, this seems like an over-reach.

A 22-year-old died because he could not afford asthma medication! One can get that for 500 INR (almost 90 times less) in India, not 500+ USD as in the US.

🚀Over 2x faster inference and significantly lower memory usage with Aurora — Decompute’s optimized Softmax replacement. It is also backward compatible with most pre-trained models. Space and compute time aren't just metrics on resource-constrained devices — they're.

I have been asked, why do we at @DecomputeAI care about better and efficient fine-tuning if one can do RAG? . As a mathematician, precision and logical depth are non-negotiable for me. So, I tested @DecomputeAI's BlackBird with Calculus Without Derivatives, a graduate-level book.

🚀 Meet LaserTune: the cutting-edge fine-tuning algorithm that’s 2x faster & slashes space usage by 50% compared to DeepSeed! Powering @DecomputeAI's Blackbird, it also shows the “catapult” effect in training loss, signaling better generalization.

Our Data, Ourselves is a landmark paper in data privacy, but its title is thought-provoking. The moment your data leaves your device is the moment it's not yours and belongs to the highest bidder. So, we developed Blackbird, an app to fine-tune your data locally.
