27 MILLION VIEWS! 27 MILLION!!! Working TOGETHER we have sent a powerful message to UK News shows if they won’t hold this Prime Minister to account for his rampant lying in Parliament we will do it ourselves! How long can you ignore it now BBC News (UK)?

"Queen Mary University of London is the sole example of a member of the Russell Group of leading universities with an outstanding record in both admitting a high proportion of students who had received free school meals and boosting their career prospects" theguardian.com/education/2021…

Wow - symbolic systems, much maligned in recent years, crushed deep learning by a 3:1 margin❗️ #nethackchallenge21 reminds us that the quest for AGI ain’t over yet, and that there is more than one pony still in the race. my bet: hybrid models will pull ahead next year.

Nice blog; I really agree with the main message. I hope people can link this to with why I'm obsessed with distributed optimisation; especially Gaussian Belief Propagation with its `magic' properties of convergence despite ad-hoc, noisy, message passing. gaussianbp.github.io

Ok. This is awesome. What a great use of AI! Bringing delight to children. :-)
