Apologies that I haven't written anything since joining Thinking Machines but I hope this blog post on a topic very near and dear to my heart (reproducible floating point numerics in LLM inference) will make up for it!

Today Thinking Machines Lab is launching our research blog, Connectionism. Our first blog post is “Defeating Nondeterminism in LLM Inference” We believe that science is better when shared. Connectionism will cover topics as varied as our research is: from kernel numerics to…

To use the Montreal subway, you tap a paper ticket against the turnstile and it opens. But how does it work? And how can the ticket be so cheap that it's disposable? I opened up the tiny NFC chip inside to find out more... 1/15

It’s so crazy how far above record levels the North Atlantic is (the entire Atlantic too actually). This is the sea surface temperature departure from average each March since 1940.

Jason was one of my favorite collaborators and he has dropped a new paper

🚨 New paper! ​​🚨 We introduce System 2 Attention (S2A). - Soft attention in Transformers is susceptible to irrelevant/biased info - S2A uses LLM reasoning to generate what to attend to Improves factuality & objectivity, decreases sycophancy. arxiv.org/abs/2311.11829 🧵(1/5)
