Episode 152 is out 🎙️
Host @alex-andorra.bsky.social talks with Daniel Saunders about a Bayesian decision theory workflow.
Big idea: stop optimizing for model accuracy and start optimizing for decision value.

What is the relationship between memorization and generalization in AI? Is there a fundamental tradeoff? In infinitefaculty.substack.com/p/memorizati... I’ve reviewed some of the evolving perspectives on memorization & generalization in machine learning, from classic perspectives through LLMs.
📢The next UniReps x @ellis.eu speaker series event is happening on 26 February at 4:00 PM CET with Antonio Orvieto and Sara Kangaslahti. Don’t miss it!🚀
Open models are in a perpetual race to stay relevant at the frontier. While they're doing better than I, and many experts would expect given the cost of models, I don't see evidence that open models are accelerating and surpassing the best closed models.

L'image représente Heinrich Rudolf Hertz. La légende en anglais dit "What happens if someone slaps you at high frequency? It Hertz". Le jeu de mot joue sur la proximité sonore entre "Hertz" et "hurts" (qui fait mal), et l'unité de mesure de la fréquence en hertz (Hz). Son, signal et images, humour GRETSI

Bayesian neural networks need one thing to matter: good uncertainty. Scaling them has always been the hard part
In this episode, host @alex-andorra.bsky.social with Emmanuel Sommer, Jakob Robnik, & David Rügamer explain what’s changing, faster sampling, better dynamics & more ..

The live chat for the Python documentary (www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfH4...) is making me super emotional this morning.
I owe so much of my career to Python. From geospatial analysis > web dev > data engineering and more, Python has been at the center.
Python is forever <3
