Iโm looking for great recent/almost MSc graduates in NLP/Speech/Theoretical Deep Learning, who are interested in doing up to a 6 months/1 year position with me as research assistant. They would be hired by DTU Compute.

Can you imagine working in a company that not only supports you, but celebrates you? ๐ Feeling all kinds of gratitude for being able to work Hugging Face .

Our responsible AI team is hiring 3 research scientist interns this cycle (2 in Montreal, one in NYC). We're seeking enrolled PhD students who are excited to spend their summer figuring out how to ensure vision and/or language models work for everyone! metacareers.com/jobs/532549086โฆ

Presented our paper on compute-efficient large-scale distributed model training using cost-efficient large-scale distributed poster printing Conference on Language Modeling yesterday! Happy to chat about compute efficient training & more today and tomorrow if you are at COLM!


How do multilingual models store and retrieve factual knowledge in different languages? And do these mechanisms vary across languages? ๐บ๏ธ In our newly released paper, we explore these questions! ๐ arxiv.org/abs/2410.14387 ๐ค Negar Foroutan Desmond Elliott ๐งต๐
