New #NeuroAI preprint on #ContinualLearning!
Continual learning methods struggle in mostly unsupervised environments with sparse labels (e.g. parents telling their child the object is an 'apple').
We propose that in the cortex, predictive coding of high-level top-down modulations solves this! (1/6)
Check out our new paper!
Vision models often struggle with learning both transformation-invariant and -equivariant representations at the same time.
@hafezghm.bsky.social shows that self-supervised prediction with proper inductive biases achieves both simultaneously. (1/4)

"Our results demonstrate that the better a model understands the data, the more effectively it can compress it, suggesting a deep connection between understanding and compression." - such a cool implication
complete blog post is now live! more tips, and reframed into 2-step process: (1) get accepted by page 1, (2) avoid rejection with the rest. download both PDFs too.

There’s no such thing as A.I “art.” It’s a soulless amalgamation of plagiarised data. That is the antithesis of art.
I'm interested in doing a PhD in your group. Sent you an email, looking forward to your reply :)

After 6+ months in the making and over a year of GPU compute, we're excited to release the "Ultra-Scale Playbook": hf.co/spaces/nanot...
A book to learn all about 5D parallelism, ZeRO, CUDA kernels, how/why overlap compute & coms with theory, motivation, interactive plots and 4000+ experiments!
Why & how scientists should do public outreach, especially now. Smart tips from @nicolecrust.bsky.social on @thetransmitter.bsky.social 🧪 www.thetransmitter.org/craft-and-ca...
