I'm enamored of combining many approaches. Here are some that are interesting and public: Various dense retrieval methods TreeFormer (arxiv.org/abs/2208.09015) High-Recall Approximate Top-K Estimation (arxiv.org/abs/2402.09360) Various forms of KV cache quantization and compression

I visited Puttenahalli lake last Sunday to see birds and enjoy nature, but was shocked to see large quantities of untreated and undiluted sewage water entering the lake. @BBMPCOMM @chairmanbwssb : Please take immediate action to save the lake.
Extremely sad day for Yelahanka Puttenahalli Lake and city of Bengaluru. Do share extensively so that everyone knows how lakes are being killed in Bengaluru. #Lakes #Conservation #bengalurururalls @Lolita_TNIE @cksaysso @DeccanHerald @prajavani @KannadaRepublic @tv9kannada

@sangunni @railwaterman and the entire team of Yelahanka-Puttenahalli Lake Bird Conservation Trust have done tremendous work to rejuvenate the lake and all of that will be lost if immediate action is not undertaken to stop the sewage flowing into the lake.

Very happy to share this work that we have been working on over the last year.
Excited to share Tandem Transformers: a simple but effective technique to significantly reduce latency of generative LLMs (in some cases ~2.74x). arxiv.org/abs/2402.08644 [1/n]

It was a great learning experience interacting with the naval officers and other speakers, and getting to know the various problems in the naval domain where ML/AI can be useful. Thanks @IN_Valsura for organizing the workshop and for the kind hospitality!
5th edition of #AIWorkshop aimed at 'Artificial Intelligence for Future Fleet' by #IndianNavy at @IN_Valsura #Jamnagar 09-11 Aug 23. Insightful talks by Triservice institutions, academia & experts in Niche domain field. #DigitalIndia #AatmanirbharBharat pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.…

Very nice work on mitigating simplicity bias by my colleagues @tiwarishabh16 and @doktorshenoy !
🚨 Excited to share our #ICML2023 work on the Feature Sieve, by which we automatically identify and suppress irrelevant or spurious features in deep networks, hence mitigating simplicity bias. Paper: openreview.net/pdf?id=DnTVBs…

On Sept 5th, Karnataka State Board for Wildlife will decide whether Hesaraghatta will be notified as a conservation reserve. Let’s rally to preserve Hesaraghatta. We cannot let Hesaraghatta be turned into a concrete jungle. Please support: bit.ly/SaveHesaraghatta @CMofKarnataka

Neural nets can generalize well on test data, but often lack robustness to distributional shifts & adversarial attacks. Our #NeurIPS2020 paper on simplicity bias sheds light on this phenomenon. Poster: session #4, town A2, spot C0, 12pm ET today! Paper: bit.ly/39RXDel
