I am on the job market this year!! I’m interested primarily in academic positions in computer science departments or iSchools, but open to any department that may be a good fit for my research program. 1/5

My alma mater, Sharif University of Technology, Iran's premier university, was under siege yesterday. Many students were arrested, heavily injured or perhaps killed. Many Iranian scholars and PhD students whom you know have received their BSc degrees from this university.

Unfortunately, there is not much coverage in US media; in case you are interested, you can read about it here: bbc.com/news/world-mid… I am sending this to inform those of you advising Iranian students, and ask you to keep an eye on them in this difficult time.

Why do LMs say what they say? We often don't know - but now we might get a better idea. My first project with Hugging Face, the ROOTS search tool goes live today🤗🌸It allows anyone to browse through the 1.6TB of the corpus behind @BigScience’s BLOOM hf.co/spaces/bigscie…🚀🧵

microsoft, and particularly azure, don’t get nearly enough credit for the stuff openai launches. they do an amazing amount of work to make it happen; we are deeply grateful for the partnership. 🙏 they have built by far the best AI infra out there.

Good news, we've increased our turn limits to 15/150. Also confirming that the next-gen model Bing uses in Prometheus is indeed OpenAI's GPT-4 which they just announced today. Congrats to the OpenAI team. msft.it/60095Ldvf

At Microsoft Research we had early access to the marvelous #GPT4 from OpenAI for our work on Bing. We took this opportunity to document our experience. We're so excited to share our findings. In short: time to face it, the sparks of #AGI have been ignited. arxiv.org/abs/2303.12712
