Large Language Models are not (yet?) good at fixing real-life bugs: they typically involve understanding how many parts of a code base relate to each other. leaddev.com/tech/researchers…

I am saying this as the creator of a CD of compositions for the piano: #AI-generated music, much like AI-generated images, recently made big progress, to the point that I do find many examples generated by @SoundrawUS quite convincing. Good job! soundraw.io/

The Escape key is often located far from the main keyboard keys. Having Caps Lock behave like Escape lets me stay in the flow, when dismissing dialogs and editing text (with vi(m), which was developed on a terminal where Escape was very accessible). vim.fandom.com/wiki/Map_caps…

Given the fact that players don't see the nature of the opponent's pieces in Stratego, this is an interesting development (even if poker has already been a success for AI).

Transformers have shown remarkable capabilities - but can they improve themselves autonomously from trial and error?
New research shows how a single transformer can explore and solve tasks using this method without ever updating its parameters ➡️ dpmd.ai/3sv7Oh1

After building on years of work from MILA, DeepMind, ourselves, and others, our AIs are now expert-human-level in no-press Diplomacy and Hanabi! Unlike Go and Dota, Diplomacy/Hanabi involve *cooperation*, which breaks naive RL. arxiv.org/abs/2210.05492 arxiv.org/abs/2210.05125 🧵👇

Hands-On Machine Learning is arguably a very pedagogical and in-depth book that covers a large number of subjects. After doing a bibliography of modern machine learning books, this is the book I first recommend. 👍

The 3rd edition of my book is being printed, it will be released within the next few weeks! 📙🦎🎉😁
You can preorder it at homl.info/amazon3
You can play with the notebooks at github.com/ageron/handson-ml…
It covers many new topics, including diffusion models:

Dune, the novel, weaves a rich world which is much more interesting than its cinema adaptations. Some famous science-fiction works feel dated, but Dune is different. It is worth reading it again with 35 additonal years of life experience. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dune_(…

Have you ever used Scikit-Learn's TransformedTargetRegressor? It's pretty convenient when your targets need to be preprocessed.
For example, if they have widely different scales, it's probably best to predict log(targets), then compute exp(predictions). Like this:👇

A super interesting interactive article on gradient descent (with an interesting twist) is given here: distill.pub/2017/momentum/ by @gabeeegoooh (by the way, all articles in Distill are pieces of art that make traditional non-interactive articles look like chiseled stone plates).
