Amazing @pranavn1008.bsky.social !!

Who is using GRPO/RL for KGQA?

New randomized, controlled trial by the World Bank of students using GPT-4 as a tutor in Nigeria. Six weeks of after-school AI tutoring = 2 years of typical learning gains, outperforming 80% of other educational interventions.

And it helped all students, especially girls who were initially behind.

Got the macos 15.1 update. With the inbuilt AI writing assistant, I do not need grammarly anymore.

The G in AGI does not stand for generative. #justsaying

I think Cypher/Neo4J is catching up with SPARQL/RDF in terms of research papers. A quick search on Google Scholar shows 2000+ vs 3000+ results since 2024. Will 2025 be the year Cypher takes over?

If you want to learn more about NLP, Deep Learning and LLMs in a structured course setting, I highly recommend this upcoming course from IIT Kharagpur onlinecourses.nptel.ac.in/noc25_cs22/p...

Understanding Transformer reasoning capabilities via graph algorithms

Once you have a PhD, when should you use Dr. with your name and when should you not?

Google is churning out language models faster than a tandoor churns out naans.

Gukesh is world chess champion at the age of 18!! #India

Damn, boarded the wrong train, and now trying to get back to the original station. Day ruined.

For people in my circle, if you are interested in a PhD position in Vienna on the topic of Knowledge Graphs, please email/DM me. My email is debayanin@gmail.com.

Gukesh was outplayed brutally today

I wonder what Magnus is thinking about the Gukesh-Ding match.

South Korea did what?

I have certainly seen the variance increase over the years. Also, no one reads the rebuttals anymore.

Rejected at #coling2025. Our rebuttal made a reviewer (the one that read the rebuttal and commented) increase their scores. Unfortunately it was not enough. Found a tough meta-reviewer.

Whatsapp outage?

Sundays in Germany are famous because all shops are closed here. Yesterday was an even more special Sunday, called TotenSonntag (Sunday of the dead) where the few more things that do remain open on Sundays will also remain closed.

Bluesky's firehose is a treasure trove of public data for researchers and developers, and it's completely free. Check out our developer docs: docs.bsky.app

I am happy that I was able to reach a point in my NLP lecture that students start to ask, what can Transformers not do well. That is a good starting point for neuro-symbolic AI.

If this app were invented in Hamburg it would be named GreySky.

Amen brother.

Blue sky seems legit.

Thank you Ioana, glad to be here!
