🥳Excited to see orthogonal finetuning (OFT/BOFT) gets integrated into the Hugging Face PEFT library (github.com/huggingface/pe…)! It takes us a lot of extra efforts to refine the code. Check out the official guide and effortlessly use BOFT in your project: huggingface.co/docs/peft/main…

The Workshop on Responsible Data Science and AI Research is this Thursday

We have an exciting lineup of speakers and panel sessions, for programme and (free) registration visit responsible-ai.science

'Large language models surpass human experts in predicting neuroscience results' w Xiaoliang (Ken) Luo and BrainGPT.org. LLMs integrate a noisy yet interrelated scientific literature to forecast outcomes. arxiv.org/abs/2403.03230 1/6

Introducing BrainGPT.org, a large language model (LLM) to assist neuroscience research. BrainGPT is trained on the vast neuroscience literature and can be used to optimize study design, detect anomalous results, and evaluate models against broad data patterns. (1/3)

Join us for a workshop on Responsible Data Science & AI Research: Fairness, Safety, and Reproducibility

Looking forward! With great help from Lilian Edwards and many others

What role can “compute” play in AI governance?

A major new 19-author report argues that governing computing power (‘compute’) can help AI governance be more effective and targeted.

A quick thread - and you can read our blog post for more:

That's a wrap on #ICML2024 submissions! 🎉 Initial count is 9,653 submissions, including 220 position paper submission ... (the count will certainly be adjusted in coming days, but for reference, ICML 2023 had 6,538 submissions 😮)

📢Important PSA for #ICML2024 📢 Due to an OpenReview misconfiguration, test data for a planned survey got into the 'Recent Activity' feed of ICML submitters. THIS IS ALL DUMMY TEST DATA, not real. Still, we are suspending the survey and working with OpenReview to delete entirely.

We have been receiving a few questions about the ICML Conference #ICML2024 Impact Statement in submissions, so made a short post about it here: medium.com/@icml2024pc/im…

Hopefully this is helpful to people trying to understand whether to include anything in this section.

If you are at NeurIPS, please visit our poster(s) at XAIA workshop. Concept explanations are my favorite kind, and we proposed a low-variance estimator that enabled estimation even with about thousand concepts with Juyeon Heo, S. Singh, Adrian Weller arxiv.org/abs/2312.08063

Come to see our work at the #NeurIPS2023 workshops this Friday and Saturday! Our papers and the schedule are below.

Feel free to reach out to any of us if you want to chat about our work, or come to the poster sessions!

If you are at NeurIPS, please visit our poster #1618 between 10:45-12:45 today. Learning from explanations (and other forms of richer task specification) is my bet for the future of reliable systems. Drop by to know more 😃 with Juyeon Heo, Adrian Weller Matthew Wicker
