@ChrisMurphyCT You're being played by people who want regulatory capture.
They are scaring everyone with dubious studies so that open source models are regulated out of existence.
I do not write posts on X.
I tweet links to posts on other platforms.
I like and retweet (occasionally)
I comment on friends' tweets (rarely)

I don't wanna say "I told you so", but I told you so.

@elonmusk @realDonaldTrump Calm down, dude.
We will become a multiplanet species regardless of who gets elected.
We will even become a multiplanet species if you die tomorrow.
Our multiplanet future will happen faster if Kamala Harris is elected because you need someone who:

@elonmusk Objectively, *you* are the biggest threat to democracy in America today.
You are an oligarch who bought himself a huge megaphone so he could use it to support a would-be dictator, and to discredit the press, scientists, research organizations, the electoral process, an
The mark of the authoritarian:
- Undermine the trust of the public in the sources of reliable information: the media, professional journalists, Wikipedia, universities, scientists, and government agencies.
- Accuse those sources of being corrupt, woke, Marxist, fascist, beholden
Thank you IIT Madras for hosting me yesterday.
I got to take a selfie with the audience of my Subaru Suresh Distinguished Lecture. https://twitter.com/ylecun/status/1849101466629550433/photo/1
@elonmusk Nope. It's perfectly legal.
It's illegal for foreigners to contribute *money* to campaigns.
But it's perfectly legal for foreigners to campaigns on behalf of a candidate
Campaigning is speech.
Speech Is protected by the 1st Amendment.
As you probably know.
Worth repeating:
Do not confuse retrieval with reasoning.
Do not confuse rote learning with understanding.
Do not confuse accumulated knowledge with intelligence.
@elonmusk This item is news.
News you don't like, but factual news.
I realize you may have lost touch with the concept of factual news.
Google is not controlled by "far left activists" and neither is Meta.
But X is objectively controlled by a conspiratorial, far right propaga
Congrats John and Geoff!
Both are former colleagues.
I did my postdoc in Geoff's lab in Toronto.
After that, I joined Bell Labs, where John was a part-time scientist (and a professor at Caltech).
In fact, John was the reason why the department I joined was working on neural nets.
@elonmusk Elon Musk didn't just buy Twitter.
He bought a propaganda machine to influence how you think.
Rupert Murdoch didn't just buy Fox and the NY Post.
He bought a propaganda machine to influence how you think.
Sinclair didn't just buy 193 TV stations.
They bought a propaga
@elonmusk People who devote their life and career to the study of science, society, and human history care about reality, about truth, about people, don't care much about money, and don't believe in dogma and conspiracy theories.
What a surprise!
People studying misinformation lean left for two reasons:
1. scientists lean left, regardless of specialty, because they care about facts.
2. misinformation today primarily comes from the Right ("they're eating the dawwwgs!") which makes it worth studying and fighting against for
I'm old enough to remember that in France in the 1960s and 1970s, far-right chauvinists were accusing Portugese immigrants of eating cats.
It's an old trope.
Today, making such an accusation publicly against an ethnic group violates laws against "incitement to racial hatred" in
@elonmusk Do you actually believe this crap?
Either you do, and one may be entitled to question your sanity.
Or you don't, which means you're deliberately lying and have a very low opinion of your followers' intellects.
@elonmusk X is not a source. At best, it's a relay.
In practice, it's largely a propaganda megaphone for people like you, relayed by
your fanbois and fanbots.
In any case, it reflects the increasingly one-sided bias of its users.
And yes, the press (finally) covers Trump negativ
@elonmusk So, you've gone full-throttle sexist now?
This "observation," which is not based on any actual observation, flies in the face of every study of conservatism in social psychology.
Many studies show that conservatism is associated with social conformity and a submission
"Our country is being poisoned" by immigrants, like me, @elonmusk, @sundarpichai, @satyanadella, @vkhosla, Jensen Huang, and two of Trump's three wives.
Many (rich) people on the Right do not actually believe in democracy.
They have a huge superiority complex.
They think the populace can be brainwashed into supporting policies that profit them and their rich friends at the expense of the majority.
So they buy themselves
@elonmusk You are undermining democracy by spewing crazy-ass conspiracy theories that erode the public's trust in democratic institutions.
Non-citizens can not and do not vote.
@elonmusk Dude, the Consumer Price Index has been back to a very normal 3% for a year now.
Inflation was up between mid-2020 and mid-2022 because of COVID.
Your tweet is total BS.

Sometimes, the obvious must be studied so it can be asserted with full confidence:
- LLMs can not answer questions whose answers are not in their training set in some form,
- they can not solve problems they haven't been trained on,
- they can not acquire new skills our
This dude has absolutely no idea WTF he's talking about.
The total net worth of my former PhD students alone would make any silvery Wall Street dude turn green with envy.
As I've pointed out a number of times, claims that immigrants vote illegally or that illegal immigrants are being let into the US to "import voters" are crazy-ass conspiracy theories and propaganda disseminated by people with a Trumpist political agenda, like @elonmusk.
The
@elonmusk The more likely scenario is that the US becomes more like Norway.
High income, universal healthcare, free higher education, low poverty rate, lots of oil *and* lots of Teslas.
That would be good for you, no?
You know @elonmusk, I really feel sorry for you and your family to have been infected by a mind virus.
But the best defense against a mind virus is intelligence, knowledge, and science.
Fighting a mind virus by promoting other mental pathogens, like Trumpism, conspiracy
💥BOOM 💥 Llama 3.1 is out 💥
405B, 70B, 8B versions.
Main takeaways:
1. 405B performance is on par with the best closed models.
2. Open/free weights and code, with a license that enables fine-tuning, distillation into other models, and deployment anywhere.
3. 128k context
X is a $44 billion propaganda machine. Yet it attempts to disguise itself as a defender of unfettered free speech, a source of factual information, and a substitute for professional journalism.
Meta will *not* release the multimodal versions of its AI products and models in the EU because of an unpredictable regulatory environment.
This means that EU users of Ray-Ban Meta won't be able to use the image understanding features.
It also means that the EU industry will not
Funny how the American Far Right feels the need to claim that every election they lose is rigged, even outside the US, apparently.
The French Far Right was not "denied a victory."
It just did not win because most voters did not vote for them, thankfully. https://twitter.com/ylec
