🤙 First time presenting at GITEX about sustainability & AI with OSS perspective! IMHO sustainable AI = inclusive AI, that's why Ant Open Source ❤️ InclusionAI, a suite of AI OSS projects, built by everyone, for everyone. Glad to carry the tshirt from #ICLR25 to #gitexasia! 🫠🫶

🤩 Second time joining the #2050 event at Hangzhou and it is extremely fun. I really love what Datawhale has been doing with the “learning festival” and brought 2 sessions for sharing. Met friends old and new. Both me and my Capricorn boy love the learning vibe here! 🤗🤩

RL training is too slow? AReaL by Ant Research introduces an asynchronous approach that decouples generation from training to eliminate blocking. Combined with system-level optimizations, this method achieves up to 2.57× speedup. Code open-sourced Yi Wu

🚀This is the year for RL system and #AReaL keeps pushing on the frontier, this time with async capability. What do you want next? Better development exp? Better usability? Just name a few~🚅

最近鼓吹这个药丸那个要被 AI 取代的声音甚嚣尘上,首当其冲的就是 AI Coding 替代程序员一说。 总体看下来是对选择大于努力的巨大恐惧,唯恐自己选错对象万劫不复 .. 以我浅薄的经验看,选择大于努力不假,但是只要大方向不出大问题,努力是有得选的前提。否则机遇砸到面前,接不住岂不更捶胸顿足。

Will speak at #OSSummit North America, June 23-25 in Denver. It would be a fun and engaging events with many "interesting" #OpenSource news. Explore the schedule: bit.ly/4lGUwbB I'll be at LF AI & Data Foundation booth on day 1 with a panel in the aftn. Available otherwise! 😺

Knows the team lead for years, a quiet and deep thinker who is really dedicated to #KnowledgeGraph and #MultiModal works. #MingOmni is a good model AFAIK

🥲 finally got to Denver #OSSummit NA after 25 hours of air travel and unlimited wait time. 👏 That said, looking forward to the keynotes and technical conversations tomorrow!

+1 for "context engineering" over "prompt engineering". People associate prompts with short task descriptions you'd give an LLM in your day-to-day use. When in every industrial-strength LLM app, context engineering is the delicate art and science of filling the context window

Had an incredibly valuable dinner tonight with Richard Bian . He showed up with one hand holding his laptop, the other still on a call. Despite a packed schedule, he gave me a full hour of thoughtful, honest sharing. Deeply appreciated. 🙏
