@Techmeme This is the danger of closed source

These are knowledge models, and they only output what they are fed with

And no, they won’t magically develop ’reasoning skills’ and be able to sift through propaganda. NOT when it’s part of the training

To think otherwise means you don’t know shit how they work

They obey statistics. Training data for #ai #foundationmodels should be subject to public #academic scrutiny. Otherwise the models are bound to fall for flooding attacks

Helmholtz Association

Check out the new Helmholtz Foundation Model Initiative (#HFMI) website at hfmi.helmholtz.de/ #FoundationModels

The Helmholtz Association provides ideal conditions for developing such forward-looking applications: an abundance of data, powerful supercomputers for training the models, and extensive expertise in artificial intelligence.

Our goal is to develop Foundation Models across a wide spectrum of research fields to address the major questions of our time.

#FoundationModels - Open for science and open to the world: Eine neue Generation von KI-Modellen, die Foundation Models, soll eine ganze Reihe von großen Herausforderungen in der Wissenschaft angehen und bewältigen.

In einer Session auf der @republica am 29.05.2024 um 10 Uhr stellen wir vier Pilotprojekte der Helmholtz Gemeinschaft vor und diskutieren mit euch über die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen dieser KI-Modelle. #rp24 #HFMI

#GenerativeAI, #FoundationModels, #LLMs, and all of that hokey nonsense shall not appear in my #robotics roadmaps as anything other than a neat research item until it can demonstrate a feasible path to #FunctionalSafety or mathematical completeness.

I lead #Product on the largest mobile-#robotic fleet known to humankind. I will not entrust decisions that could maim or kill to a pile of nondeterminate math prone to “hallucinations” or confabulation.

Project announcement 🏗️: "PROSurvival" builds a collaborative federated learning framework to predict survival in prostate cancer patients.

Partners are OFFIS - Institute for Information Technology, Charité, Goethe University Frankfurt, and Fraunhofer MEVIS.

Here's the gist: In the long run, we want to find predictive image features that can be identified in tissue sections from routine diagnostics.

Cool cool I'm on holiday and Stanford releases a transparency index preprint that looks genuinely useful but also not unlike something we did months ago. I don't want to deal with this right now and it is entirely possible they haven't seen our work yet but I do wish somebody told them there's no shame in informing oneself of prior work and no cost in recognising others' efforts

Good morning everyone! Here's my latest #Connections #Introduction #Introductions #TwitterMigration post, where I curate interesting accounts for you to follow from across the #Fediverse :fediverse:

@maryrobinette is a #writer #author, and I am listening to her incredible #LadyAstronaut series at the moment. If you love #SciFi (esp hard scifi) you should read it, too! 🇺🇸

@sayashk is a #ComputerScience #PhD candidate at #Princeton, who is researching failures in #ML (he's also co-running a workshop on open #FoundationModels in about 15 hours, see my previous posts for more info) 🇺🇸

@michcampbell is Dr Micha Campbell and she is a #PalaeoClimate #PostDoc living on #Dharawal country 🇦🇺

@mthv is a #Research #Engineer who works in #GIS at #CNRS 🇫🇷

@astrolori is Lori and she is into #OpenSource, #fashion, #space and #tech #WomenInSTEM 🇨🇦

@pandas_dev is the official account for #pandas, the #Python #DataAnalysis tool 🐍 📊

@jessie is a lover of #languages and helps run #CommonVoice, @mozilla 's open #voice #data set, which now supports over 100 languages. She also teaches #WebDev and loves #hiking. She's awesome you should follow her 🇬🇧

That's all for now, please do share your own lists so we can create deeper connections, and a tightly-connected community here

I'm reminded here of @maryrobinette's short story - "Red Rockets" - "She built something better than fireworks. She built community."
