...when a research idea wins because it is suited to the available software and hardware and not because the idea is superior to alternative research directions.

Great work brother 👏👏👏

This person's obsession with AGI is unlike anything.

He had papers back in 2007 about AGI, Singularity and etc.

Do you have AI related papers🔥?

Publishing in top conferences might be hard for starters. So to fill this gap we have an African AI conference called Deep Learning Indaba.

So if you have ideas in mind, why not write a paper and submit. You can learn a lot from the feedbacks weather your paper is accepted or not.

🚨I'll be happy to help if you need any help.

Now, I respect all the people with personal channels posting everyday, you guys are awesome👏

What's it's like to work at Meta(FAIR) as a Research Intern.

observations from my first two weeks as a Meta research intern

- research jobs are the same everywhere: no one ever asks me what I’m doing or how I’m spending my time; there’s an implicit expectation to be interested and work hard

- biking to work in the sunshine has noticeably improved my quality of life

- you can schedule a meeting with anyone and they will actually talk to you; this is an amazing and I suspect under-utilized perk of the job

- had my first good research idea in a while and it wasn’t exactly in line with the goal of my internship; i was excited about it and folks were really supportive in letting me change course

- even though meta is a big company and has lots of process like any other, they put a lot of effort into removing barriers (unnecessary meetings, forms to fill out, etc.) and just letting you do research

- no meeting wednesdays is a good rule

- no H100s at FAIR (at least not that I can get) and A100s are few and far between

- SF office is beautiful and has great views of the Bay (see pic)

- it’s funny to come from academic setting where i would bring my own lunch to Facebook where i overheard some coworkers complaining about the dryness of the (free) duck served at lunch

- Meta is a great place to work; i like it here
