Positive vibes only. #pokopia

Thank you Nintendo for always delivering at the right time. Animal Crossing for the pandemic, Pokopia for WW3 😭.

+ no AI generated references 😛

This is very cool. I kinda wish one of the big conferences would make a non-LLM submission policy for the main track just for one year. Would be fun 😛.

I just hide and cry about it 😁.

Project page now available! DeBias-CLIP is now the new SOTA for image-to-long-caption retrieval!

#CVPR

In this amazing multidisciplinary collaboration, we report our early experience with the @openclaw-x.bsky.social ->

Memorization vs. generalization in deep learning: implicit biases, benign overfitting, and more Or: how I learned to stop worrying and love the memorization

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.

Inspiring and on point quote for 2026 🥲.

Haven’t finished it yet. Played last winter on NSO 😅.

He’s so freaking cringe 😬. Is this real life? 🤯🫠

Honestly a pretty simple solution: we force these models to pay attention to the whole text sequence 👀. The motivation of this work was that all previous models were mostly focusing on the first few tokens (the « summary » sentence). Details are in later parts of the caption typically 👀.

This was legit the first time I was feeling confident about a big AI conf. paper! Initial reviews were already 3/3 accepts, and we managed to get final scores of 5/5/6!

Teaser: we’re now the new SOTA (by a huge margin) for image-to-long-text CLIP-style retrieval 👀.

Accepted at CVPR! More info to come soon (we need to work on our project page and all 😅). 👀

😩😩😩

5 days to go until final CVPR decisions 👀👀👀. #cvpr

"Moderna's CEO announced the company will no longer invest in new Phase 3 vaccine trials for infectious diseases: 'You cannot make a return on investment if you don't have access to the U.S. market. Vaccines for Epstein-Barr virus, herpes, and shingles have been shelved.” 9:12 AM Feb 12, 2026 604.8K Views

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

You still have time to apply to the CVPR (horror) art submission 😂.

It took me weeks, but finally it's there: an overlong blogpost on synthetic pretraining. vintagedata.org/blog/posts/s...

Very very cool and important blog!
