Do you spend a lot of time thinking about attention entropy collapse, AdamW issues, extra layer norms, and pesky loss spikes? If so, we may have a #job in #Toronto for you with Tech At Bloomberg's #ML Strategy team (CTO Office). careers.bloomberg.com/job/detail/115… #NLProc #LLMs #AI

I'm really excited to speak about BloombergGPT at the 7th annual Toronto Machine Learning Society (TMLS)! Register at eventbrite.ca/e/toronto-mach…

Our new work on synthesizing tabular data with differential privacy. Deep learning methods traditionally underperform marginal-based methods, at least when anybody makes a fair comparison. Our GPT-style models close the gap substantially, and outperform for certain distributions.

Our Head of #ML Strategy, David Rosenberg, joined Bloomberg' Deputy Editor-in-Chief Reto Gregori in hosting a delegation of Swiss executives visiting #NYC this week for a discussion on how #AI's being used in Bloomberg Terminal today & the potential for #LargeLanguageModels in finance/business

At #TPDP2023, Rodrigo Castellon presented "DP-TBART: A Transformer-based Autoregressive Model for Differentially Private Tabular Data Generation," a paper written w/ our #ML Strategy team's Achintya Gopal, Brian Bloniarz & David Rosenberg bloom.bg/3PXKdSM #DifferentialPrivacy

🚨Summer AI Research Internships🚨 The Tech At Bloomberg office of the CTO is looking for summer AI research interns! ML, NLP, Vision, LLMs Spread the word. Interested candidates should apply here: forms.gle/niB9ZU6eEi6iEz…

During today's #SyntheticData and #GenAI in Finance Workshop at Association for Computing Machinery's #ICAIF'24, David Rosenberg, our Head of #ML Strategy, will deliver an Invited Talk about "Private Synthetic Data: Perspectives on Traditional & #DeepLearning Approaches" (10 AM EST) bloom.bg/4hO5kCU

In today's 7th BlackboxNLP Workshop at #EMNLP2024, research by ICSA@InformaticsEdinburgh's Jordi Armengol-Estapé, Lingyu Li, Sebastian Gehrmann, Achintya Gopal, David Rosenberg, Gideon Mann & Mark Dredze will highlight a method to statically locate topical knowledge in the weight space of #LLMs #NLProc #AI

Thanks CFA Society Toronto for including me - it was a really nice discussion!

We’re excited to announce Bloomberg's Visiting Faculty Program, a unique chance to collaborate with our researchers on #AI for #finance & tech. Gain access to world-class data & have real-world impact. Apply for sabbaticals & part-time roles: bloom.bg/42yDcOh #research

🚀 New paper on evaluating retrieval robustness – how well LLMs handle imperfect retrieval: 1️⃣ RAG >= non-RAG? 2️⃣ More docs >= fewer docs? 3️⃣ Sensitivity to doc order ▶️ 11 LLMs × 3 prompting strategies Findings: LLMs show surprisingly high robustness—but limitations remain. 1/2
