Happy to see LLM security taken seriously by OWASP owasp.org/www-project-to… Here's my (offhand) thoughts on the list: 1/

Still use ⛓️Chain-of-Thought (CoT) for all your prompting? May be underutilizing LLM capabilities🤠 Introducing 🌲Tree-of-Thought (ToT), a framework to unleash complex & general problem solving with LLMs, through a deliberate ‘System 2’ tree search. arxiv.org/abs/2305.10601

I believe there are strong reasons to not only use gradient descent even when it is applicable. Namely that gradient descent performs inductive learning, stochastic methods can do something like hypothetico-deductivism, which is fundamentally more capable. togelius.blogspot.com/2018/05/empiri…

This is how little code it takes to implement a siamese net using @fastdotai and @pytorch. I share this because I continue to be amazed.

While one should strive to use gradient-based optim whenever possible, there are situations where the only option is gradient-free. Gradient-based is way more efficient, but not always applicable. PS: my 1st paper on perturbative learning was at NIPS 1988 papers.nips.cc/paper/122-gemi…

✨🧠Friendly periodic reminder that @TensorFlow supports traditional models like random forest, linear and logistic regression, k-means clustering, and gradient-boosted trees! The syntax is a bit more verbose than scikit-learn; but you get the added bonus of GPU acceleration. 👍

A lot of what's considered "elective" in CS education should actually be required. HCI is a lot more relevant to most software engineers these days than something like compiler design.

Every time I prep my HCI course, I relive my frustration that HCI is relegated to elective status in (most) CS curriculum. At some point, don't we need to decide that it's actually important to teach processes to find problems and design solutions that meet real human needs?

When a statisticians hear, "Successful people start their day at 4 a.m.", they think: 1. Waking early makes you successful? 2. Something about success makes it hard to sleep at night? 3. Success is lethal; Only early risers survive? 4. You did your survey at 4am. #epitwitter
