“Governments should continue investing in public sector AI. Academia must be at the forefront of training the next generation of innovators and advancing cutting-edge scientific research in the public interest.”

I miss the days when we evaluated algorithms rather than models. Rather than "how well does model M do?", it should be "given data D and compute C, how well does running algorithm A on D with C do?" I don't think we can get scientific clarity unless we do the latter.

Today the U.S. had an undeniable policy shift. Instead over indexing on AI regulation, it will seek an acceleration towards innovation. See Fei-Fei Li speech on how to properly innovate and govern AI that protects academia and open source communities. #AIActionSummit
