(1/n) Thrilled to share my first paper at Meta FAIR! "EgoBabyVLM: Benchmarking Cross-Modal Learning from Naturalistic Egocentric Video Data" 👶 Human infants learn language from sparse, noisy multimodal input. Today's VLMs can't. We built a benchmark + challenge to close that gap. 🧵

Check out our new preprint 𝐓𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐆𝐑𝐚𝐃. We use a robust decomposition of the gradient tensors into low-rank + sparse parts to reduce optimizer memory for Neural Operators by up to 𝟕𝟓%, while matching the performance of Adam, even on turbulent Navier–Stokes (Re 10e5).

Revisiting the Othello World Model Hypothesis

Li et al. (2023) used the Othello board game as a test case for the ability of GPT-2 to induce world models, and were followed up by Nanda et al. (2023b). We briefly discuss the original experiments, ...

Forget just thinking in words. 🔔Our New Preprint: 🚀 New Era of Multimodal Reasoning🚨 🔍 Imagine While Reasoning in Space with MVoT Multimodal Visualization-of-Thought (MVoT) revolutionizes reasoning by generating visual "thoughts" that transform how AI thinks, reasons, and explains itself.
