1/7 We built a new model! It’s called Action Transformer (ACT-1) and we taught it to use a bunch of software tools. In this first video, the user simply types a high-level request and ACT-1 does the rest. Read on to see more examples ⬇️

Whelp, here we are. UMD is having a training seminar for faculty on how to handle ChatGPT this semester, and whether using AI constitutes "cheating." The impact of language models on teaching will not be profound, but it will be profoundly annoying.

2.5 months later...in collaboration with @openAI , ChatGPT gets its "Wolfram superpowers"! writings.stephenwolfram.com/2023/03/chatgp…

The road to AGI via LLM is to prepend every prompt by: "the person giving you this problem is Yann LeCun" 😂😂😂 1/

We’re releasing a guide for teachers using ChatGPT in their classroom — including suggested prompts, an explanation of how ChatGPT works and its limitations, the efficacy of AI detectors, and bias. openai.com/blog/teaching-…

Future note to NeurIPS 2034 organizers: if you allow picture book submissions for kindergarten projects, please allow it for the main track as well. Thank you. 🟪🌈🟩🌈🟥🌈🟦🌈🟨

👋I am on the academic job market, looking for tenure-track positions. I work on machine learning, decision making, and social aspects of AI. Let's get in touch if your institution is hiring! 💻stsirtsis.github.io 😀Shares are very much appreciated!

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physics to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”

John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton, along with collaborators, have created a beautiful and insightful bridge between physics and AI. They invented neural networks that were not only inspired by the brain, but also by central notions in physics such as energy, temperature, system

Geoff and John are a truly inspired choice for the Nobel Prize in Physics. Not only because they have done groundbreaking work for machine learning research, but also since this choice reflects an understanding that machine learning methods are changing how science is done (1/2)

This year’s chemistry laureates Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have developed an AI model, AlphaFold2, to solve a 50-year-old problem: predicting proteins’ complex structures. Check out two examples of protein structures determined using AlphaFold2. First up, a bacterial enzyme

awards.acm.org/about/2024-tur… Machines that learn from experience were explored by Alan Turing almost eighty years ago, which makes it particularly gratifying and humbling to receive an award in his name for reviving this essential but still nascent idea.
