Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 29/09/2026My radical suggestion - if data for the model is not open source we should assume by default that benchmarks are contaminated and model performs worse then numbers suggest 111
Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The thing that drives me crazy - there are probably >1B fairly open tokens for Faroese out there (based on my scraping of the government/municipality websites + data from scientific journals etc) But we just can't release it, because majority of it is not covered by copyright exception law 320

Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I think conferences should introduce something like Golden Raspberry Award but for worst AI-slop paper 050

Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Afaik at this point EU had two solutions : 1. Treat this situation like WW2^covid, mobilize resources and try to catch up at least with China on AI & robotics 2. Do nothing And this is essentially the second option on that screenshot 260

Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Actually researchers at Faroe Islands done great job at collecting data over the last few years and we will likely have more then enough tokens to generate synthetic instruction data and add that post training mixes in DFM projects (not that SF tech bros care for low resource languages) 210
Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Huh, apparently Talgo carriages began to appear on domestic IC routes in Denmark (I hope I can get to uni before this thing breaks) 000

Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Maybe my political coordinates are entirely off, but for me Mamdani is pretty much centrist - very working class oriented social policy at the same time quite business friendly The fact that he considered far-left blows my mind slightly 200
Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 10/09/2026It never fails to amuse me how politicians (and other policy makers) are still trying to make archaic educational model to work 100
Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 10/09/2026After we solve all Millenium prize problems we should start working on truly hard problems - like OCR 2413

Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Hot take : I think all superhero stories should be presented as TV series. That way creators can focus on actual storytelling and character development, as opposed to cramming as much CGI as possible in 2 hours 110

Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 27/08/2026I understand why he says that, but objectively every action of Danish government points that it wants 0 international students in Denmark Perhaps long term return on having international talent is much harder to measure then short term gain from swinging few far right voters 220
Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 26/08/2026I wonder if Chinese inference focused GPUs will be sold outside of China once they will start mass production I would happily buys something like DGX Spark but for like 60-70% of the price to run small-medium sized open weights models 130
Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 26/08/2026And this is also a great point that I constantly talk about Either we find a reasonably ethical way to collect more data for national AI initiatives, or well - this data will be collected by companies that don't care about Danish copyright or Danish society for that matter 020

Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Thanks to the amazing people at Rigsarkivet, Folketinget and Digitaliseringsstyrelsen we now have added Danish Parliament text archive to the Danish Dynaword - 1.2 billion words and 2.8 billion tokens total 🔥 With this addition Danish Dynaword is approaching 10 Billion tokens total 1131
Vladimir Salnikov @v4ldelund.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Ok guys we need to talk about "automatic doors" between carriages on Copenhagen S-trains and IC/Re trains Someone need to change the sensors, I can see almost every day both locals and tourists struggle to open them They are also very inaccessible for people with reduced mobility 000
