Thanks for the insight. Looks like the principle of “doing things that don’t scale” works surprisingly well even in the ML space.

They didn’t invent it, they advanced it. I agree. However, some advances can have huge consequences to the field compared to others, even if at the technical level they appear comparable. One example that comes to mind is CRISPR.

Because sofas that last are heavy and were meant for when people didn’t move out of the same estate for generations. Now people move every few years. And it’s hard to justify buying fancy furniture in a place you aren’t staying for long tim

The sad part about the field is that in the end nobody really cares what science turned out to be fake… because nobody actually cares about the specific results that come out of psychology research.

Society should see this as a success. Private companies see the value of AI research and are accelerating it by hiring the top people. This is what you want in an academic field... to no longer have it confined to academic research.

For many artists and scientists, consumption is directly linked to creation. Musicians spend their free time consuming the latest music, scientists read the latest journals, writers like Stephen King read novels while waiting at grocery lin

Most Europeans are wearing clothing, using electronics, and obtaining raw materials from slave-like labour already. Why have laws that prevent people from voluntarily taking up certain kinds of work?

The energy usage to run these models can be drastically reduced through optimising and pruning near-zero weights. If you’re an engineer like Carmack, I can imagine this is a problem that would be fruitful to tackle. We are back at saving co

This is incorrect way to think about it. Because optics matter more than whatever skill may be involved. The way to think about it is to imagine a non tenured person writing two identical grants. They take one grant and change their positio

Thank you for the reminder that management is not the same as leadership. Management is something you do by mostly moving your lips and typing text, leadership is something you actively do and are that inspires others to put in their best w

For exploring data, plotting data, and fitting complex models like GLMs and GAMs, using R is essentially as fast as thought at this point. So if you have tabular data, it’s a no brainer to use R. Getting the data into table form is often be

If you’re working half the time versus millions of comparably talented people full time: you will soon be out of a job (if employee) or a business (if employer).
