I’m loving Chinese manufacturers airing luxury brand’s dirty laundry on TikTok.

How on earth are you supposed to register/log into a Bluesky app? Every time I try I just get a 401 error. I grab an app password too. Sigh.

Done migrating all websites that remained on US servers. My company wants to rely as less as possible on American products and I can't blame them 😐

supposedly DeepSeek is set to launch R2 soon. On par with o3-full

This paper today is entitled "Terminating Pandemics With Smartwatches." While it is unlikely they (with A.I.) will end a pandemic, there are considerable data (largely ignored) for how watches and fitness bands could help achieve far better control academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...

Isn't it interesting that the same time the Epstein stuff is released, there's a blow-up in the White House which dominates the news cycle? :)

Someone on Reddit just posted an open call for questions they could give Deep Research. It could be just me, but the results seemed to be quite one dimensional, lots of verbiage, no insights. old.reddit.com/r/singularit...
I just used deep research for work and.. I'm in shock
I've given it 3 seperate queries, each one asking it in detail about market trends in the area that I run at my work place. It asks 5...

This paper is wild - a Stanford team shows the simplest way to make an open LLM into a reasoning model

They used just 1,000 carefully curated reasoning examples & a trick where if the model tries to stop thinking, they append "Wait" to force it to continue. Near o1 at math. arxiv.org/pdf/2501.19393

To those unfollowing since I began my book spotlight series for Black History Month…✌️

I’m not sure who you THOUGHT you were following, but on this account we uplift and celebrate marginalized voices, including books written by black authors. (and that’s all year ‘round folks).

Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books?

They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are *very good*

starling murmurations, meet primate chiral oscillators!
Analysis of the confined crowds at the San Fermín festival in Spain shows that dense crowds can self-organize into macroscopic chiral oscillators, coordinating the orbital motion of hundreds of individuals without external guidance, according to a paper in Nature. https://go.nature.com/3WKkb8r 🧪

NOAA manages large ocean fisheries in US waters. Scientists there conduct surveys, sample fish, and run complex models to estimate the levels of sustainable catches. NOAA is recognized as a world leader in creating jobs, producing food, and avoiding overfishing. Kudos to NOAA fisheries!!!!

ML community on Bluesky has expanded enormously in the last four months.
I have been in your place several times since 2022 waiting patiently.

What I can say is this recent wave (from Sept 2024 to now) has been absolutely the most successful.

I think we have the nucleus. Now, we persist. Don't give up and keep contributing.

We have to play the long game.

s1: The $6 R1 Competitor?

This isn't a R1 replication, it's a brilliant breakthrough in data reduction, and just plain dumb engineering ingenuity. I considered not writing this up, but I don't think it's obvious why it's so important. Enjoy!

If you want a version of DeepSeek-R1 or GPT-o1 that does a really good job on exactly one task, you can do that for ~$30

Which is to say that technical implementation of o1/o3/R1 style models are relatively easily achieved. Big tech AI companies have no moat.
AI research team claims to reproduce DeepSeek core technologies for $30 — relatively small R1-Zero model has remarkable problem-solving abilities
It's cheap and powerful.

New Google DeepMind safety paper! LLM agents are coming – how do we stop them finding complex plans to hack the reward?

Our method, MONA, prevents many such hacks, *even if* humans are unable to detect them!
