Very proud of this work that we Stanford HAI have led and partnered with so many institutions and policymakers since four years ago!🤩👇

Sounds cool!

been there done that

Exciting #AAIC2023 ADSP genetic section chaired by Li-San Wang and Thanks Towfique Raj highlighting innovative deep learning technologies for non-coding variant prediction at our NIA AI/ML consortium. Thank you The National Institute on Aging (NIA)

Excited to share our latest survey paper: 'Artificial Intelligence for Science in Quantum, Atomistic, and Continuum Systems'! 🚀 ArXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2307.08423.

Exciting clinical harmonization data will be available for ADSP project to accelerate AD/ADRD research and AI/ML consortium research presented by Timothy Hohman at #AAIC23

Absolutely over the moon about this Focus issue on the future of bioimage analysis!!! (a short thread)

This is proudly promoted, completely unironic and without self awareness from the hacks at MIT Tech Review: “How to talk about AI (even if you don’t know much about AI)”, “don’t worry about sounding dumb”, and you know “it’s all about power”

Does the sound of our speech have a genetic component? Yes it does! Our genetic study on voice pitch and vowel acoustics is now #openaccess in Science Advances.

Is Falcon really better than LLaMA?
Short take: probably not.

Longer take: we reproduced LLaMA 65B eval on MMLU and we got 61.4, close to the official number (63.4), much higher than its Open LLM Leaderboard number (48.8), and clearly higher than Falcon (52.7).

Code and prompt…

Sam Altman: 'the way this works is we're going to tell you it's totally hopeless to compete with us on training foundation models you shouldn't try, and it's your job to like try anyway. And I believe both of those things. I think it is pretty hopeless'

How difficult is it for the CEO of Pepsico to balance her professional & personal life?

She's a gem 😂
