Reposted by Emil Malta 🇬🇱Timnit Gebru @timnitgebru.blacksky.app · 29/01/2025Friends, for something to be open source, we need to see 1. The data it was trained & evaluated on 2. The code 3. Model architecture 4. Model weights. DeepSeek only gives 3, 4. And I'll see the day that anyone gives us #1 without being forced to do so, because all of them are stealing data. 372884828

Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 05/12/2024Both of my kids got their legal names by me filling out a form on my phone, truly an age of wonders we live in.

Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Hot take (i guess): Answering a data question by someone needing your help with a snarky “depends on what you mean by x, y and z” doesn’t make you sound smart, it makes you sound kinda mean. 000

Reposted by Emil Malta 🇬🇱Carl T. Bergstrom @carlbergstrom.com · 22/11/2024When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit. Soon I realized science was a collective human activity, and these were just the objects of its attention. Anyway, whenever I read an OpEd on how science isn't political, I think "Are you 5 years old?" 13580161233
