Cool ! I was just wondering of the rt models were "forgotten".
However I just tested it on our evaluation dataset (text-to-text) it's roughly 2x slower than the previous model. Is it expected?

Would you believe that deep RL can work without replay buffers, target networks, or batch updates? Our recent work gets deep RL agents to learn from a continuous stream of data one sample at a time without storing any sample. Joint work with @Gautham529 and @rupammahmood.

C'est finalement un train à grande vitesse (TGV) qui reliera Québec à Toronto, a appris Radio-Canada. Le fédéral en fera l'annonce dans les prochaines semaines. Jusqu'à 300 km/h. Arrêts à Trois-Rivières, Laval, Montréal, Ottawa et Peterborough ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle… #polcan
I vividly remember the time I discovered that ‘std::vector<bool>’ wasn’t actually a vector. I was so pissed off I documented my feelings for posterity cloderic.com/content/2010-02…
Anyway, I’m happy to see people are still getting fooled in 2024 :)
An ETH Zurich (@ETH_en) lecturer published a paper "proving" that C++ vector is 20x slower than C array: arxiv.org/pdf/2410.10022
He used `vector<bool>`, completely unaware that it is a dynamic bitset.
Guess googling "vector<bool> slow" before publishing was too hard. 🤦

Being a senior developer is being able to fix the bug in 5 minutes
But having the discipline to assign it to a team member knowing it’ll take them 4 hours

I'm tired of having to prove to people that generative AI systems infringe by default, so here's a megathread of images I've prompted you can use in your discussions.
Article by @GaryMarcus and myself at the end. 1/🧵
I guess my point is that it’s a continuum between planning in known deterministic environments and model free RL. And it’s always the same concepts and objective -> optimizing for a value function.
I mean we’re saying the same thing, you can “theoretically” build a search tree in any environment, it’s often impractical or impossible, though. RL enables the same thing by learning a model (explicitely for model based implicitely otherwise) from interactions.
The way I think about RL is similar but comes from a different place. What you want to achieve is planning a sequence of action towards an optimal goal (as defined by a value/utility function). RL are just techniques using ML to avoid the complete tree search.

L'entretien que nous venons d'avoir @Cyrielle_Chtl et moi au nom des Ecologistes avec le président de la République est extrêmement préoccupant.
Voici en transparence ce que j'en retiens.
Comme vous le comprendrez, j'en ressors inquiète, mais pas surprise.
On continue ⤵️

Il est donc à la recherche d’un mec (ça on a remarqué) qui serait un opposant MAIS qui lui obéirait en tous points… ce n’est plus la recherche d´un premier ministre mais la chasse au Dahu et donc… ça peut durer longtemps….

Ma mère avait super mal au ventre.
La régulatrice du 15 l'a engueulée, infantilisée. Elle est allée à l'hôpital. Elle a été laissée dans un coin pendant des heures avant d'avoir une prise de sang qui a révélé la gravité de sa situation.
Ma mère a failli mourir d'une pancréatite

Arrêtez de venir aux Urgences parce que vous avez 30 ans et que vous avez eu mal au poignet en faisant un truc même si c’est au boulot.

.@lufafarms j’ai un vrai débats à table avec la famille : doit on dire l*ou*fa ou l*u*fa ? J’imagine que les anglophones disent le premier mais avez vous un preference ? #vraiquestion
