Head of? Director? VP? How to live with title inflation. protocol.com/workplace/titl…

VCs pushing for growth and CEOs that feel rewarded for top line growth at all costs can easily slip in these patterns. That is where we are now: we're after a five-year festival of "growth at all costs."

Though bad investors sometimes cut back dramatically in bad markets, good investors keep investing. They know how terribly dangerous it would be to stop. What if they miss the Google? So don't be deterred from starting a startup because you worry it will be hard to get funding.

There are so many reasons Sajid Javid should have resigned. Primary amongst these have been the inept handling of the covid crisis in the UK since his appointment. Let's not praise him now for belatedly recognising the impact his incompetent leader could have on his career

Improving things like compiler inlining decisions is something that is near and dear to my heart (one of my first papers was "Towards better inlining decisions using inlining trials"). Now it's great to see this problem tackled with reinforcement learning to great effect!

Offering kids the choice of candy or a potato this year because I saw a meme about it. And honestly it’s super funny to see their reactions.

The current definition of metaverse is an MMO where instead of being a hero, you're a consumer.

This website was built by ChatGPT. I spent the last few hours making a detailed initial message that transforms ChatGPT into a friendly helper. It asks you a series of questions and then hands you the HTML. I'm blown away. Try the prompt for yourself: gist.github.com/kettle11/dae31…

He blames the NHS, GPs, care workers, Kate Bingham, his scientific advisers, his cabinet colleagues. Yet - guess what - he gets every single big call right. I read Matt Hancock’s Pandemic Diaries so you didn’t have to. And they’re absolutely nauseating. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

I'm speechless. Not peer-reviewed yet but a submitted paper. The 'presented images' were shown to a group of humans. The 'reconstructed images' were the result of an fMRI output to Stable Diffusion. In other words, #stablediffusion literally read people's minds. Source 👇

Scaling pre-product market fit is the number 1 killer of startups - in other words - the fastest path for your investment to be worth nothing.

Nvidia ($960B) is now worth more than: - Facebook ($665B) - Tesla ($618B) - Netflix ($168B) This is a company that started 30 years ago at Denny's and was for decades only a video game chip maker. Here's why Nvidia is surging:

H5N1 bird flu has a mortality rate close to 100% in chicken. When the virus is detected in a chicken farm, all animals are being euthanised to reduce their suffering and limit the risk of spread to other animals and humans. 1/

My take on whether Tylenol causes autism is why is the government refusing to release the Epstein files? Who are they protecting?

This resonates. As Gen X we had this all backward. This era is more enlightened. Also, I should have just listened to my wife 20 years earlier

I meet a lot of founders who are worried by the rapid rate of technological change. They shouldn't be. It may feel uncomfortable, but techno-turbulence is net good for startups. They're much more likely to adapt successfully to some big change than incumbents are.

Dario is wrong. He knows absolutely nothing about the effects of technological revolutions on the labor market. Don't listen to him, Sam, Yoshua, Geoff, or me on this topic. Listen to economists who have spent their career studying this, like Aghion Philippe , Erik Brynjolfsson ,

全网都在吹的LeCun新论文，90%的解读都是错的。 他们说生成式AI是死路，说过去三年花的几百亿全白费了，说15M参数的小模型就能吊打万亿大模型。 这些全是营销号的夸张， 我觉得这篇论文的真正分量比他们吹的还要重。 Yann LeCun团队这次解决了JEPA困扰了好几年的表征坍缩问题。
