Last night I attended the OpenAI Forum Welcome Reception at OpenAI’s new offices in San Francisco. The Forum is a recently launched initiative from OpenAI that is meant to be “a community designed to unite thoughtful contributors from a diverse array of […]
I’m thrilled to announce another publication from our European Research Council (ERC)-funded research project on Machine Vision: Gabriele de Setaand Anya Shchetvina‘s paper analysing how Chinese AI companies visually present machine vision technologies. They find that the Chinese machine vision imaginary is global, blue and competitive. […]
Whenever I give talks about ChatGPT and LLMs, whether to ninth graders, businesses or journalists, I meet people who are hungry for information, who really want to understand this new technology. I’ve interpreted this as interest and a need to understand – […]

A few weeks ago Meta released Galactica, a language model that generates scientific papers based on a prompt you type in. They put it online and invited people to try it out, but had to remove it after just three days after […]

Oh…..Final, ey? That must be the reason why I felt claustrophobic watching it. Hmm… no, it must be because I just don’t like landscape pictures. On second thought, it must be because I rode a ferry twice every single week day for three years at high school… Jill, your picture reminds me of endless pensive waiting and longing for a harbor.

It was quite a long trip. But I had to take a photo of SOMETHING, cos you know, I wanted to moblog. It’s just that there are so many things not worth moblogging. I hope to do better from France 🙂

Ay ay Captain!
Your picture captured a whole lot of emotion:-)
I want to moblog too, but sigh… it must wait….
