Although I might benefit from this, but I have to point out that this is supposed to be the intern season, and there were always a surge in rent during this season in the past. That is not happening this year. So comparing to last year, you

To evaluate generic model is hard. For example, for image synthesis in GAN, the widely used Inception score balances between authenticity of the generate samples vs the variety as well, to make sure the model is not copy-pasting. In this pa

People are using Android, just not GMS. It is funny, that GMS itself is yet another layer built upon Android. How is it different that Tencent distributing this layer via WeChat, other than Google bundles this layer through GMS? Tencent doe

Beginning of the end. I see very likely Bay Area salary is now peaked. It is not like companies prior to the pandemic aren't looking for alternative. Now this is just in full acceleration mode.

No, not remotely. If people are truly novice, with zero programming experience, how would they know the code is correct? If not, how to debug it? I would say this is more promising for scenarios to generate more formularitive things like bu

TSMC had denied this through Chinese media. Might need to wait for sometime to see exactly what its position in all these. My bet it will eventually comply but leave some vagueness here and there. After all, hurting TSMC is hurting the worl
