Thank you for your rebuttal. It is good to think about the "just a stochastic parrot" thing. In many ways this is true, but it might not be bad. I'm not against replay. I'm just po…

Thanks for maintaining benchmarks here. Is there a github repo that might accompany the benchmarks that I could take a look at / reproduce?

So, a couple things here. It is true that replay in the world frame will not handle initial position changes for the shirt. But if the commands are in the frame of the end-effector…

To be honest, I actually really like the visual delivery here. It's especially helpful for understanding what's going on with computer vision problems. Please make more!

I can appreciate that, but also they are recording and replaying motor signals from specific teleoperation demonstrations. Something that _was_ possible in the 1950s. You might say…

Sorry, but this is a lot of marketing for the same thing over and over again. I'm not against Aloha as an _affordable_ platform, but skimping on hardware is kind of a bug not a fea…

To be honest, most researchers in applied ML in the bay say the opposite. If you are trying to be nimble and prototype, use pytorch. If you're trying to gain some optimizations as …

Let me say, he's a great teacher! I took a CV class with him. He should teach more, and take it seriously. Being a popular AI influencer is not necessarily correlated with being a …

The headline, the picture, the article --- it would be easier to take them seriously if they just made the tools work and stopped posing for band pictures. I am happy to have the t…

I think the problem with stuff like this is that in many cases the authors have an idea like "LLMS + ???? = Operating System !" which is not that hard of an idea to come up with. G…

I am really impressed by this work. If only Disney needed an empirical physicist...

I appreciate the conciseness of this article. Thank you for sharing. I agree. The kitchen sink data strategy appears to be fairly inefficient with current model architectures.

Twitter is just embarrassing now. I haven't used it in over a year now. Turns out it's absolutely unnecessary for a normal, well-informed lifestyle.

The word on the street among the researchers I know from my grad school days is that this is basically a bunch of datasets that were created earlier on for specific papers, and the…

Why is it so painfully obvious that people with position piece blog posts do so to distance themselves or provide an alibi for the things they plan to directly contradict in the fu…

Why is it that tech brand names (including people like Altman) have just become so cursed? I feel like society at large is tired. Everyone buys the thing but basically does it beca…

I'm sorry but this is just a depressing article... Seems like it offers no upside.

You are completely right about this being a shallow treatment of a complicated subject. There are many different functions the concept of the "growth mindset" serve. Unfortunately,…

I also really like the instructor for this course! Seems like he really cares. I looked him up and I guess he was a student of Andrew Ng (the legendary ML lecturer!!) so it makes s…

I have stayed in SF for almost a decade and have no plans to leave. Many of my younger friends have moved to NYC (or elsewhere) and they have told me they don't like the overwhelmi…

A fair response. I agree, I would rather see thoughtful technical insights than vanilla advertisements on reddit or whatever. That being said, the quality of these MLOps websites b…

This is a great and fairly accessible project. I'd like to give this a shot at my local hackerspace!

No disrespect. This article isn't terrible (and I did learn something practical), but isn't the underlying purpose of this post to advertise whatever service assemblyai.com provide…

It's almost as if governments are actually serving their constituencies... Something that large corporations (or otherwise masquerading as NGOs) will most certainly never do unless…
