There's something that tickles me about this paper's title. The thought that everyone should know these three things. The idea of going to my neighbor who's a retired K-12 teacher and telling her about how adding MLP-based patch pre-processing layers improves Bert-like self-supervised training based on patch masking.

- woopwoop 1y agoClickbait titles are something of a tradition in this field by now. Some important paper titles include "One weird trick for parallelizing convolutional neural networks", "Attention is all you need", and "A picture is worth 16x16 words". Personally I still find it kind of irritating, but to each their own I guess.

- minimaxir 1y agoOnly the first one is clickbait in the style of blogs that incentivize you to click on the headline (i.e. the information gap), the last two are just fun puns.
- janalsncm 1y agoHonestly I took the first one as making fun of that trope. Usually the “one weird trick to” ends in some tabloid-style thing like lose 15 pounds or find out if your husband is loyal. So “parallizing CNNs” is a joke, as if that’s something you’d see in a checkout isle.
- woopwoop 1y agoIn what sense is "Attention is all you need" a pun?
- minimaxir 1y agoIt's a reference to the lyric "love is all you need" from the song "All You Need Is Love" by the Beatles, and it uses a faux-synonym with a different meaning.
- adultSwim 1y ago"Attention is all you need" is an outlier. They backed up their bold claim with breakthrough results. For modest incremental improvements, I greatly prefer boring technical titles. Not everything needs to a stochastic parrot. We see this dynamic with building luxury condos. On any individual project, making that pick will help juice profit. When the whole city follows that , it leads to a less desirable outcome.
