🎉 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, UniverseTBD! 🚀
As we turn 2, we’re going 2^2.
Launching a new project per day for the next four days.
We hope that you all enjoy these works as much as we have enjoyed working on them. Stay tuned for the big reveals!

New AstroPT models are out 🔭🎉 This time trained with an improved DESI galaxy image dataset. Link here: huggingface.co/Smith42/astr...
Check out these new scaling curves!
We are still seeing improvement at 800M parameters where before we stalled at 100M. Maybe high quality data is all you need 🤔

📢 New dataset out!
We introduce HypoGen💥, a dataset of ~5.5K structured problem–hypothesis pairs (Bit–Flip–Spark + Chain‑of‑Reasoning) to advance LLM-driven scientific ideation💡.
Fine‑tuned LLaMA 3.1 8B & R1‑distilled models show significant gains. Humans are still the best🥇.

Such a cool project! Excited to see how Herakoi can integrate with astro LLMs 😼
Tiny, but significant milestone for #herakoi!
Earlier this year, the SAIt invited me and @micginolfi.bsky.social to present our "motion-sensing sonification experiment" at the VITEII workshop.
And today, we got a short proceeding out on #arxiv:
arxiv.org/abs/2412.09152
