Is KL-regularization the right tool for language model alignment? The χPO algorithm: We show that a one-line change to DPO—moving from KL to chi-squared regularization—is sufficient to achieve state-of-the-art theoretical guarantees, provably alleviating over-optimization.

[1/7] New paper alert! Heard about the BitNet hype or that Llama-3 is harder to quantize? Our new work studies both! We formulate scaling laws for precision, across both pre and post-training arxiv.org/pdf/2411.04330. TLDR; - Models become harder to post-train quantize as they

Excited to finally release our NeurIPS 2024 (spotlight) paper! We introduce Run-Length Tokenization (RLT), a simple way to significantly speed up your vision transformer on video with no loss in performance!

what a time to be alive

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

We announce LAION-DISCO-12M - a collection of 12 million links to publicly available YouTube samples paired with metadata to support basic machine learning research in foundation models for generic audio and music. laion.ai/blog/laion-dis…

Narrative on X: 🦋 has no AI/ML and just talks about itself My actual feed on 🦋:

You can choose what feeds you have on your homepage -- I personally like the "popular with friends" feed (in the above tweet). The default is "following" - which looks like this for me:

Because X has tended to censor discussion of social networks I won't link directly, but look for this post to get an instant AI/ML feed thanks to M A Osborne

And just like that, the AI/ML migration off twitter finally happened. RIP, this shitty pay-to-play platform.

New NanoGPT training speed record: 3.28 FineWeb val loss in 4.66 minutes Previous record: 5.03 minutes Changelog: - FlexAttention blocksize warmup - hyperparameter tweaks

This is officially the new record! Congrats Fern (who is also an OG of CIFAR-10 speedrunning) x.com/hi_tysam/statu…

Yo this paper is wild.

🔥 Are you ever dissatisfied with the imprecise names in vision-language datasets? 🚀 At #NeurIPS2024, we introduce 𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐎𝐕𝐀𝐓𝐄, showing how better segmentation dataset names lead to 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 & 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. Let’s dive in! 🧵👇

'we're in this bizarre world where the best way to learn about llms... is to read papers by chinese companies. i do not think this is a good state of the world' - us labs keeping their architectures and algorithms secret is ultimately hurting ai development in the us.
