I am pretty happy with this 30-minute summary of my views on the current state of AI and alignment. youtube.com/watch?v=w177Ov…

Can we enhance interoception by controlling the heart? Thrilled to share our new study, led by Ashley Tyrer, where we use computational modeling to show that blockading peripheral noradrenaline uniquely alters awareness of heart rate & breathing! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵👇 pic.x.com/uMz9rXYglH

Our team at Microsoft Research India is looking for a Research Intern for a 6 month position. The position will be on-site in BLR. You will get to work on multilingual data, modelling and evals. Please DM me with a short blurb about yourself and your CV/Resume.

Happy birthday Joseph Fourier, whose 1822 equation allows us to listen to mp3s today: bit.ly/22kbNfi

Neural networks don’t have to be distilled into other neural networks. They can be distilled into decision trees or sets of rules. And then interpretability becomes dramatically easier.

Jeff Dean Yes I can; as can you. But I'm primarily interested in what's widely available in the community, where a single 4090 GPU machine is already a very rich investment. Remember also that 3090s were the last consumer card with nvlink, so 4090 and 5090 cards aren't good at multi gpu

Out last week in CogSci Society! Sam Forbes and I ”urge extreme caution in the use of LLMs in classrooms lest we further normalize: pupils losing their privacy, reducing contact between learner and educator, deskilling teachers & polluting the environment”‼️ PDF/DOI links below.

Sergey Brin and Larry Page must be rolling in their graves now

"pip install" is dead. "uv add" is the new king.

The downfall is real 😬

If Claude is really doing so much of the coding for Anthropic, why haven't they used it to create a fucking ui for Claude Code? It's 2025. Why the fuck am I forced to use a cli for everything as if it were 1995?

hypothetical two-year degree in AI: - Coding in Python - Semiconductors 101 - Intro to machine learning - Intro to data science - Data visualization & dimensionality reduction - Machine learning engineering - Language models - Deep learning (basics & architectures) -

Jürgen Schmidhuber True, but these CNNs were not trainable. AFAIK Yann LeCun is the one training CNNs for the first time.

Jürgen Schmidhuber JFPuget 🇺🇦🇨🇦🇬🇱 Yann LeCun The Neocognitron was trainable, but not via backpropagation. It used analogue threshold units, not ReLU, sigmoid, or tanh. CNNs became scalable and trainable with backpropagation, notably through LeNet.

Jeff Bezos literally dropped the most underrated winning principle

Many people think CS is just DSA. It's not. My CS curriculum had: 0. Data Structures and Algorithms 1. Calculus 2. Linear Algebra 3. Physics 4. Mathematical Physics 5. Differential Equations 6. Theory of Functions of a Complex Variable 7. Theory of Probability and Mathematical

Dwarkesh and I had a frank exchange of views. I hope we moved the conversation forward. Dwarkesh is a true gentleman.
