For a company to be as successful as OpenAI, two people won't cut it. OpenAI arguably has the best ML talent at the moment. Talent attracts talent. People come for Sutskever, Karpa…

Not sure how the article knows "new" employees, but something doesn't click for me. H1B visas kick in on October 1st of each year. August 17th can only be for H1B transfers. Might …

I still regret not liquidating at the end of 2021 while all CEOs were selling their positions by the 10s of millions.

Flipping that iPad with 20, 22, and 25% tip presets for a takeout really grinds my gears. But even for non-tip services, people tend to use iPhone attachements to scan the card rat…

Not that the algorithms are impossible to explain but in some cases the real explanations might require explanations, too. But I think companies will probably get away with hand-wa…

All companies try to get in on it, too.

Not the same thing. Check out other relevant responses here, too. In short, Home Depot or Lowe's are buying products to resell. They are the seller themselves. OP's argument is tha…

fwiw, there is substantial randomness in the process (worked at two of FAANG myself). Try to do mock interviews with your friends if it helps. You may be showing patterns that you …

I agree with you for almost everything you said. This case is definitely unusual. What I mean by conditional is that the person who approved it initially is not an actual reviewer.…

what you refer to as "they" are two different entities.

It is common to submit for approvals hours before the deadline. However, if pubapprove process finds something that needs to be redacted, you have to withdraw the paper. That's bas…

Technically you can submit it without pubapprove unless somebody rats you out and you might face some repercussions. Otherwise every paper is supposed to go through AI Ethics commi…

Every paper we submitted went through a technical review as well as legal and IP reviews. They were along the lines of cite this, cite that, run these experiments etc. What's diffe…

It is not exactly a wholesale reject. She submits the paper to the conference first and asks for approvals later, which might be common if you are rushing for a deadline. This has …

it is sort of a placeholder approval. The actual reviews may be done by a legal team, HR/PR, other researchers in the field etc.

She sends for approval 1 day before the conference deadline, proceeds to submit the paper with conditional approval, and waits for the actual approvals. It is common practice with …
