This was a paper I presented about in Bang Liu’s research group meeting on 2023-09-25. You can view the slides I used here.

I presented this paper in Bang Liu’s research group meeting on 2023-07-24. You can view the slides I used here. It seems like the authors made a mistake that inflated the scores for the multilingual experiments, according to Ken Schutte.

On 2022-11-03 a class action lawsuit was announced against GitHub Copilot on the basis of copyright infringement, and now (2023-01-13) there’s one for stable diffusion (against StabilityAI and friends).

From the original poster:The thumbnail for this post was generated with stable diffusion. See the alt text for details. Yes, I’m not great at this.

I presented this paper in Bang Liu’s research group meeting in two installments on 2023-02-20 and 2023-02-27, and also in Irina Rish’s scaling and alignment course (IFT6760A) on 2023-03-07.

This was a paper we presented about in Irina Rish’s neural scaling laws course (IFT6760A) in winter 2023. You can view the slides we used here, and the recording here (or my backup here).
