Everything I’ve ever done right and everything I’ve ever regretted is separated by one question: is this what Picard would have done?

I’m seeing so much obviously LLM generated commentary about the new non-LLM AI announcement.

Checking LLM thought text to see if it says “user made a really funny joke” or “user is annoying AF”

Was having a chat with a friend and this came up. What’s the real reason the major voice assistants aren’t hooked up to LLMs yet? My guess is liability and safety, but maybe computational cost?

Professional update: Earlier this month, I joined @SnorkelAI as a senior applied machine learning engineer. Snorkel is a company built on technology closely related to the topics I was researching. It’s a great fit for me, and I’m looking forward to seeing what we'll do together!

Dear friends, I’ve spent the past year on leave from work for personal health reasons. Now, with a lot of other life changes, I’ve finalized the decision to leave Tufts this summer.

I’m going to take some time to figure out what to do next professionally. I still hope to find a path where I can use my knowledge to make the world a better place—all while having the balance to take care of myself and do other things I love in addition to work. Bert 2/2

The energy use for training large pretrained models is worth the investment of environmental costs because they can be reused everywhere is what I would say if there wasn’t a new giant model out every two weeks and also if we ever make one that’s not racist.
