I attended the talk and was disheartened by a comment made by the speaker. Calling out a specific ethnic group while addressing an issue is unnecessary and counterproductive. Integrity and merit cross borders and ethnicities. We can do better to make our community a safe place.
Mitigating racial bias from LLMs is a lot easier than removing it from humans!
Can’t believe this happened at the best AI conference @NeurIPSConf
We have ethical reviews for authors, but missed it for invited speakers? 😡

I didn't see the talk, but the images I've seen of the slide seem quite offensive. Such generalizations should have no place in NeurIPS or anywhere else.

I sat with you 3 years ago. I begged you to have a different response to gun violence. You went forward from there & continued to mock people like me. @tedcruz, FUCK YOU. This is on your hands. Don't put out messages like this. Walk to @ChrisMurphyCT and do something now.
What are we doing? Is this the future we want our children to live in?
Sen. Chris Murphy delivers remarks on Uvalde, Texas elementary school shooting: “What are we doing? What are we doing?…This only happens in this country and nowhere else. Nowhere else do little kids go to school thinking that they might be shot that day." abcn.ws/3sVDH2F

Sen. Chris Murphy gets on his knees on the Senate floor: "I am here on this floor to beg, to literally get down on my hands and knees to beg my colleagues: Find a path forward here. Work with us to find a way to pass laws that make this less likely."

It's very disturbing that a party that is willing to let women suffer & die to ensure fetuses are carried to term won't protect actual living children by restricting gun ownership in sensible ways.

Today is the 144th day of 2022.
The Uvalde shooting is the 212th mass shooting of 2022.
Gun violence is a public health crisis.

“Why are you here?!"
A furious Sen. Chris Murphy demands answers from senators following Texas school shooting.
“Why do you spend all this time running for the United States Senate...if your answer, is as the slaughter increases, as our kids run for their lives—we do nothing?”
Joe Wenjie Jiang retweeted
14 children and a teacher dead.
Another shooting. And the GOP won’t do a damn thing about it.
Who the hell are we if we cannot keep our kids safe.
This is preventable. Our inaction is a choice.
We need nationwide, comprehensive, commonsense gun safety NOW.

A furious, emotional and fed up Steve Kerr pleaded with senators to do something about the mass shootings.

Thrilled to announce that our work on RL for chip floorplanning was published in Nature & used in production to design next generation Google TPUs, with potential to save thousands of hours of engineering effort for each next generation ASIC:

Very excited to have collaborated with @Azaliamirh, @annadgoldie and many others on this work on using reinforcement learning to teach computers to pay the "game of ASIC chip floorplanning"!

So excited to share our work on RL for Chip Placement, which enables chip optimization in < 6 hrs, whereas baselines require manual efforts and can take weeks. Joint work with my co-TL @annadgoldie, @JeffDean (cont.)
