JuliaCon 2023, juliacon.org/2023/ the call for proposals is posted, deadline Dec 18: pretalx.com/juliacon2023/cfp
I've spent more quality time focusing of two breakthroughs in understanding the nature and the behavior of machine learning models which came from the "penumbra" of "prosaic alignment" start-ups and which I wrote about in my previous two posts.
"Grokking is (more or less) solved." I took brief notes between Oct 21 and Oct 23: github.com/anhinga/2022-notes/tree/main/Grokking-is-solved
"Generative autoregressive models are similators." I took extensive notes between Oct 5 and Oct 23: github.com/anhinga/2022-notes/tree/main/Generative-autoregressive-models-are-similators
I am continuing to develop thoughts related to these topics, I am going to gradually write more about those topics in the comments.
