Just happened across this video: towards the end of 2017 – this clip from the recording of http://
fast.ai lesson 4 was the first time the effectiveness of a fine-tuned universal language model was demonstrated. (Our IMDB dataset result shown at the top.)

TPUs are still a bit of a pain (to say the least!) to get working with PyTorch, and PyTorch is the easiest way still to get stuff done, on the whole.

Criticism of AI hype: preferring technical analysis over AGI claims
By
–
I don’t even mean result. I mean analysis. Interesting like the way it was interesting to see this stuff on word2vec or others. That’s all. Nothing about AGI, world models or whatever. But that they coat it in the latter makes me very much uninterested.

Spherical Deep Learning Outperforms Flat Space Models
By

Some well-rounded results: @GoogleResearch work shows that deep learning on a sphere — instead of flat space — is superior for things like prediction of weather & molecular properties.

Consider spherical surfaces (much better than pretending the world is flat!). See JAX code! https://t.co/8Q0msyJDcC pic.twitter.com/uGzb4piHYQSome well-rounded results: @GoogleResearch work shows that deep learning on a sphere — instead of flat space — is superior for things like prediction of weather & molecular properties.
