@pollenrobotics We also made their pretrained models available (which is useful for the ~100 customers of Pollen-Robotics): Of course, we plan to do the same for affordable robot arms that everyone can own! Stay tuned ๐Ÿ˜‡

After spending just 20 minutes with the @MistralAI model, I am shocked by how unsafe it is. It is very rare these days to see a new model so readily reply to even the most malicious instructions. I am super excited about open-source LLMs, but this can't be it! Examples below ๐Ÿงต

How to do good research? Like making good music. Everyone have their style. You eventually find your own. Trying to copy styles that work best can be useful at first.

careful about overfitting to lists like this. there are many ways to do good research -- my fav papers were born out of getting "stuck in rabbit holes" that no-one else went down...

In 2024, explaining what a model learned or why it generated a certain output is still challenging! LENS is tackleing this by providing all concepts used by a pretrained model for all 1000 classes of ImageNet. Check-out by yourself, it's super interesting ๐Ÿค
