The "Bitter Lesson" post from Rich Sutton from earlier this year [1] seems a very good complement to this article: he explain how all of the big improvements in the field came from new methods that leveraged the much larger comput

I think people are digging too deep for an answer here... it seem to me to be a simple mistake, which on the scale at which they're evaluating those models is not statistically significant.

Not for individual car owners, but in Japan some buses connect with neighboring signals which are more likely to turn green when the buses are approaching. Having buses usually quite close to schedule probably helps

Thank you for taking the time to write from experience, very insightful. Out of curiosity, when did you leave and for where? Hope it worked out great for you.

Regarding the challenge of an efficient implementation, pytorch+pyro attempt to tackle it. It's still a work in progress, but you might want to have a look at: https://pyro.ai/examples/gp.html

Good points. For anyone interested in skipping the superfluous and sensationalizing article, here is a direct link to the paper, avoiding the embedded tracking link: https://arxiv.org/abs/1908.09339

Fun fact, it gets even more expensive (per GB) when you want to add RAM over 1.5TB, because Intel will crank up the cpu price just for higher ram support. Off the top of my head, the same cpu accepting 4TB was twice the price of the 1.5TB v

Yes, also a few hundreds of terabytes of data are much less convenient to upload and share.

This is great, we have a tendency to be content with existing tools we're familiar with but be blind to their limitations. I'm looking forward to how this project evolve! However an important point for practical usage is the capab

Flagship gaming support from Windows, Stability and flexibility from Linux, and Design principles from MacOS I would love such an OS too! Sadly I'm not aware of anything that ticks the three, but at least ElementaryOS [1] attempts to

Not only is it not forbidden in France, in tech at least it is expected that you put a picture. Yes it's also allowed not to put one (and illegal to discriminate because it's not here), but from my experience most people do. (sour

I am, I was not writing about cognition here. All I'm saying is that even with stereo inputs, we're doing more than computing depth from the baseline between left/right images. Close one eye and you can still estimate relativ

It’s always better to have multiple sensor modalities available. This is the main takeaway. Unsurprising but interesting nonetheless. I'm working in the field and it confirms my experience. However they have a big bias that need to b

We don't just have 2D data though. We learn objects representations by interacting with them over years in a multi modal fashion. Take for example a simple drinking glass: we know its material properties (it is transparent, solid, can

Interesting, it changes my understanding of tex a bit, as it's not "only" a building block (despite being mainly used as such). Time to follow those links and do some exploring! Thanks again for the nice answer, people sharin

Nothing to be sorry about, it was very insightful, thank you! An extra question because you seem knowledgeable about the topic: do you know if/where tex is still used by itself? (without latex)

If this is the real 2.8 (not rc3) this is great! Admittedly the beta was quite stable and usable, so no big change but for the symbol. Having played with 2.8 for the last few months, it's really a massive overhaul. Combined with import

The main website is not updated yet, but it seems this is 2.8 indeed. Or do you have other information I'm missing?
