2nd Batch of the A16Z Open Source AI Grant
- reflectored 3y agoWhen my GPU is under strain, my monitor makes weird noises - and so it does on this page! And then I checked my GPU util, are they mining bitcoin or training models using my GPU? :) Volatile GPU-Util 43%
- squigz 3y ago> When my GPU is under strain, my monitor makes weird noises I love technology
- mi_lk 3y agoHow much is the grant, it doesn't seem to be disclosed?
- toppy 3y agoIs it only me or this webpage hangs on mobile?
- boiler_up800 3y agoI immediately thought of the Axolotl Tanks in Dune when I saw this list. Great name.
- sjsdaiuasgdia 3y agoAxolotl != axlotl https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axolotl https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axolotl https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Axlotl_Tank https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Axlotl_Tank
- dragonwriter 3y agoAs your second source notes, the Dune thing uses both spellings.
- dwrodri 3y agoHuge props to A16Z for supporting lucidrains' work! His prolific output was instrumental to my self-teaching process when learning about Transformers, as he probably has the largest collection of publicly available implementations of Transformer-related papers in PyTorch. I think a large amount of people who get interested in implementing deep learning papers end up referencing lucidrains' work.
- dontupvoteme 3y agoVery nice to see LLaVA there, IMO it's one of the last puzzle pieces for a proper open source infrastructure in AI (e.g. filtering/classification after something like artspew). A bit surprised about common crawl, is the financial cost there due to the massively bloated scale of the modern web they're (presumably) still trying to crawl?
