A better way of thinking about your impact as a scholar/researcher. Building Blocks for Impact, from the @DORAssessment Project TARA (Tools to Advance Research Assessment). https://t.co/ijaZfraLYS

Excited to publish the Prompt Engineering Guide, a new repo for discovering papers, guides, tools, and datasets to learn about prompt engineering. Intended for ML / NLP researchers and practitioners. More coming soon! Including a full tutorial & lecture. https://t.co/24k6YQrMcz https://t.co/USnUlEFEnW

I wanna hear stories about people picking up skills for silly/arbitrary reasons that ended up serving them well later in life. Or more broadly, any silly-arbitrary thing that ended up being consequential. Tell me ur stories

This is extremely obvious and somehow insane: use an image transformer to understand the latent space of spectrograms allows mixing and matching musical genres and pieces https://t.co/sMQTEJOn7N

ChatGPT will kill businesses that don't change. The 6 businesses disrupted (& how you adjust to make a fortune):

Academia gatekeeps knowledge by using unnecessarily complex language, alienating formats, makes it so you have to be both dedicated and culturally familiar to understand it. Rationalist writing, by contrast, is extremely accessible Feels like a similar vibe to elon and twitter

Science ran a big experiment on itself for the last ~60 years. It didn't work out. https://t.co/1pNOSRrdNY

Introducing RT-1, a robotic model that can execute over 700 instructions in the real world at 97% success rate! Generalizes to new tasks✅ Robust to new environments and objects✅ Fast inference for real time control✅ Can absorb multi-robot data✅ Powers SayCan✅ 🧵👇 https://t.co/HNcRZAPIl0

12 great lines by social scientists – whether you agree or not with them, this is great writing. https://t.co/HI3TGzAujO

This is one of the best explanations I've ever seen of why the @fastdotai way works. "In a space where the two questions 'How does this work?' and 'How can it be made better?' are asked repeatedly, curiosity becomes muscle memory." Thank you @DSaience. https://t.co/0ONudO9CVk

Here's how to conduct a literature review using Google Scholar, @zotero, @RsrchRabbit , and @obsdmd . A step-by-step guide👇 https://t.co/KmpApIaL7t

We can now envision a day where the 20th century scourge of mass media is ended forever. Not mended, just ended. Replace newspapers with your own personalized open source AI. Do the same for Hollywood. End remote control of minds. Now the user decides, not a media corporation. https://t.co/RgZEAl6f3z

Incredible story. I put out a call to use AI to generate NYT-tier clickbait from tweets. One brave engineer answered the call: a student who learned how to code on Replit, starting just 85 days ago! His app takes a tweet and generates an article. It’s already in the ballpark… https://t.co/uQXU9a5Qal

With everyone all abuzz about AI, let's revisit a few concepts from my AI post 8 years ago. Hard to say if we're witnessing the beginning of the long-predicted "intelligence explosion" or just a sporadic burst of new advances. Either way, an S-curve seems to be picking up steam https://t.co/SSHc5p7lOD

Announcing Perplexity Ask, a new search interface that uses OpenAI GPT 3.5 and Microsoft Bing to directly answer any question you ask. https://t.co/FRNkFsnMrm https://t.co/R4G21AmwQ7 https://t.co/iKRMUWgzob

Wasn't aware of this, but sounds like Scott Aaronson at OpenAI is working on cryptographically watermarking GPT outputs. Means it should be easy enough (in principle) for e.g. teachers to check if students used GPT to do their homework, StackOverflow to check for GPT use, etc. https://t.co/ah9hAjUKvl

In 1984 an education researcher named Benjamin Bloom found that the median student using personalized tutoring and mastery-based progression performs better than 98% of students in a traditional classroom. Computers and AI are now making those two things cost $0. Buckle up. https://t.co/RlJGVtikGf

Researchers studied the impact of meetings on our brains. This is fascinating… https://t.co/OqCZijDJb4

Did you know, that you can build a virtual machine inside ChatGPT? And that you can use this machine to create files, program and even browse the internet? https://t.co/15IwHwr2on

interesting watching people start to debate whether powerful AI systems should behave in the way users want or their creators intend. the question of whose values we align these systems to will be one of the most important debates society ever has.

Thiel believes higher education is a bubble and college degrees are insurance policies that give status symbols & the illusion of learning. Many kids should build new things instead of sitting in a classroom.

I’ve read this book and it’s incredible. So much so that it stands to be the go-to guide for health and longevity. (Note: I am not a paid endorser; it’s simply terrific). https://t.co/33oNTEqptk
