i bet she can't even write down the flash attention 2 backward pass without looking it up
as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious"

I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge.

We know exactly how LLMs work.

The Moondream VLM (vision language model) is amazing. It's small (2B parameters) and yet accurately detects boars in a dark infrared camera image. Asking for both boar and pig increases accuracy though. #sanglicam

One night the pupil came in tears to Suiwo. "I must return south in shame and embarrassment," he said, "for I cannot solve my problem."

Suiwo said: "Meditate for three days longer, then if you fail to attain enlightenment, you had better kill yourself."

On the second day the pupil was enlightened.

Moondream playground is back, running the latest upcoming version of the model, and now with prompt suggestions! Look at how blazingly fast it is running on an L40S...

social media is nothing without its links 💙
We love links because we love the open web
It is so incredibly nice to have a social platform that values links again - a breath of fresh air in the poisoned ecosystem of the creator economy

just got fired from moondream... my job was to avoid leaking proprietary synthetic data generation techniques in a conference talk.
