GPT-4 limitation: inability to create and annotate figures
By
–
The bottleneck is that GPT-4 cannot create or annotate figures. And I honestly can't read surveys or reviews without figures 😛

Recent LLM Research Highlights: Llama 2, ReLoRA, AlpaGasus
By
–
New base models with Llama 2, pretraining LLMs with ReLoRA, training with less data via AlpaGasus, and many more … There's been lots of interesting research in the last month! I summarized the research highlights in three sentences each:

NCD vs Cosine Distance for Vector Comparison
By
–
Nice one thanks for sharing. Looks like a really nice write-up. I remember running the NCD on count vectors, but then I thought cosine distance is even simpler. Intuitively, I'd say they should capture about the same thing.

Tinygrad Deep Learning Framework AMD Support Discussion
By
–
Oh interesting, I know tinygrad (the DL framework)! Wait, so it does support AMD or is it in the works? Also, is this going to be without ROCm then?

AMD AI Tools Company Startup and ROCm Usability Status
By
–
Wasn't there someone who recently started a company around building AI tools specifically for AMD … and then gave up after like a few weeks? How useable is ROCm at this point? (I know PyTorch has support for it, but it is still experimental)

Excitement for Efficient LLM Fine-tuning Research Methods
By
–
I am really excited for the research community to develop (more) efficient methods for finetuning LLMs.
And I hope you find this competition as useful and exciting as I do! Link to the competition here: -

Question about paper submission phrasing for real conferences
By

would we say "we submitted a paper to the ICML" if it was a real conference? 😛

arXiv Papers Compared to GitHub Code Repositories
By
–
“The paper is on the arXiv” would be like “the code is on the GitHub”
