Best ICLR joke heard to today: if you are in Singapore, you'd see their currency is SGD (SinGaporean Dollars). An entire nation invested in optimization is the next level of commitment.

Indeed super cool, except that there could be fewer xxx. I find the <B,M,S> notation 10x friendlier than the 32B, 64B, 128B notation. (and wtf is "128B with 32B atomic" btw?)

I noticed an alarming change within myself because of LLM usage: I have become lazy of reading. These days, if I ask Grok a question and its answer is long, I would get annoyed and tell it to give me a TDLR. Sometimes, I even become impatient enough to tell it to answer

If you can tell why the line numbers are bottom up, you're are not necessarily better than 99.9999% CS grads, but you know something they don't.

If you hear a manager talking about "curiosity driven" vs. "goal driven" research, run for your life. Those words scream a strong sign of being political and managerial. Also, I never managed to learn wtf do those words mean.

This is actually worse than LLMs babbling around, because the human brain hours wasted are much more expensive than the GPU cycles 🥲

🚨BREAKING Starting tomorrow 9AM, prescription drugs and pharmaceutical prices in the US will fall by ~30-80% to match their lowest price anywhere in the world! Think what you will of Trump, but this is groundbreaking. Expect pharma stocks to tumble tomorrow.

When I was thinking whether I should do a PhD or just work at Google, the advice I heard the most was: "Do the PhD; you can always come back to Google." Wonder if that is still true today, with Google replaced by any frontier AI lab 🤔

For some reasons, I am fascinated by language creations. Look, JRR Tolkien is such a great world builder, because he created an entire language. The CUTLASS team did Tolkien's work for GPU programming. 🔥🚀

The 2025 version of "money can buy clocks but cannot buy time, can buy medicine but not health, etc." is: "LLMs can help you write git commands, but cannot teach you version control."

Hollywood should stop worrying about Veo eating their lunch. Claude has already generated enough materials for their next box office winner! 😒🤣

FP4 numbers are like quantum systems. You know that they exist and have one of those 16 values, but the moment you need to observe them, they immediately attach to something (8 bits) and lose their original meaning.
