"We are committed to our fully open ethos. That's why we release everything—weights, code, training data, checkpoints, all of it." — @nlpnoah.bsky.social at the Madrona IA Summit last week.
#UWAllen prof @nlpnoah.bsky.social will be the new vice provost for artificial intelligence and Charles & Lisa Simonyi Endowed Chair for Artificial Intelligence & Emerging Technologies thanks to a $10M gift supporting @uofwa.bsky.social's global leadership in #AI. www.washington.edu/news/2025/11...
a suicide note:
I only logged in 200 times
because your shitty system kept logging me out
now a simple reviewing task has become endless
I cannot do this again
farewell

if a restaurant worker feels the need to tell you the food is fresh ... it definitely isn't
you can go to Vienna, meet people you like in cafes, and not pay the registration ... seems like a net win
this is not new, it was always tedious
if you find it or write it (or want to write it together) lmk
yours too, "bro"
if you don't appreciate this joke, please unfollow me
I thought you were a writer. write it down, no one wants to watch a video
we wrote this and I think it's part of what you want

The RewardBench 2 Leaderboard on HuggingFace.
RewardBench 2 is here! We took a long time to learn from our first reward model evaluation tool to make one that is substantially harder and more correlated with both downstream RLHF and inference-time scaling.
I am furious about the news out of Colorado of Jews being lit on fire for the crime of calling for hostages to be released. I am furious at how dirtbag leftists on this website and elsewhere treat this as a game where violence against American Jews is justified if we aren't good tokens.
not going, I can play music in Seattle without renting a room
Congratulations to @yizhongw.bsky.social, who successfully defended his PhD thesis today! Advised by @hanna-nlp.bsky.social and me.
trying to decide whether to go to Vienna in late July (there's a formerly-AI conference happening there and I might want to see some friends who still go)
maybe you can help me decide
who's going to be there and wants to rent a place and play music together
saw this in Seattle this weekend, it was great, also recommend
(I don't know why this will never get old)
*upload photo of anyone at all to Molmo, type "where is the scientist?"*
Molmo: I don't see a scientist here
give Schumer a break, he's so old he can't remember which party he's in ... ביז הונדערט צװאַנציק, טשוקעלע
the economist called us losers and we ... rolled our eyes because their argument is behind a paywall
Gen X (at its best) doesn't feed trolls
it's always glutes
I doubt surgeons and specialists will be obsolete in my lifetime, but the idea of a "primary care physician" who just punches shit into a computer before writing you a prescription for a common issue, and "insurance company" that stands between you and solution ... probably will
(4/n)
truly can't wait until the day I can say I helped replace our inefficient, ineffective, and (most importantly) soul-destroying "healthcare" "system"
(3/n)
can now easily see how the rest of the process (interacting with experts to get the problem fixed, or determine that it can't be fixed and make informed decisions) will be automated
(2/n)
used a LM to diagnose a medical problem, figure out steps to get treatment with minimal phone calls and time wasted waiting for healthcare providers to perform administrative tasks
(1/n)
intellectually I get that his name is "Robert Prevost" but in my head I can't not hear it as "Ford Prefect"
it's a pity, such a lost opportunity for people to think scientifically about language
edicts from academics, now that will be an effective way to change language use by whole societies! why did no one think of this before?
I would have thought that linguists (of all people) would understand the idea that term meanings change over time
