Data preparation is going to be the #1 differentiator when it comes to Foundation Models. Hence I've been involved in a new open-source project aimed at building & sharing reusable components for data preprocessing: github.com/ml6team/fondant 1/2

building a company on large ML models is humorously closer to biotech than traditional software - niche, shallow talent market - long iteration times - material capital requirements - likely need an incumbent partner for distribution

Security doesn't have to look boring! 😴 Check out this blogpost on how we visualise our Cloud Armor logs and protect our #GoogleCloud infrastructure! 🛡️
To visualize #log4shell attacks, we built a live #threatmap on top of Google Cloud to detect and visualize #log4jexploits by using #cloudarmor. Learn the how and the why in this blogpost: hubs.la/Q011GtMp0 #log4jvulnerability

I noticed a weird thing about writing that if you’re trying to prove a point and use too many arguments (beyond 2-3) then it ends up coming off as weaker in aggregate. Is this a real thing?

To make an existing model more robust at test time: augment a single test image in many ways, finetune model so that predictions on augmented images "agree", minimizing marginal entropy. This is the idea behind MEMO (w/ Marvin Zhang & @chelseabfinn): arxiv.org/abs/2110.09506 🧵>

There’s something for everyone at I/O Extended UK & Ireland! Anyone can RSVP → goo.gle/36MyQFI 🗓️ July 27 - AI/ML, Flutter, Cloud 🗓️ July 28 - AR/VR, Firebase, Web 🗓️ July 29 - Mobile/Android, UI/UX, DEI
A change I don't know if all developers are ready for is that over time, most/all code will be purely "boring" business logic at most companies, with the non business logic increasingly factored out into pure SaaS companies

I've decided to become a full-time individual contributor at HashiCorp and will no longer be an exec. This is something we've planned for years and I'm so happy HashiCorp is in a place to allow it to happen. Do what you love, not what others expect! ❤️ hashicorp.com/blog/mitchell-…
