There is an article said that a DOGE member had write access as well (See [1]). But it was quickly changed back to read only. So there was a risk, but I can only hope nothing happened.

I think there is an article said that a DOGE member has write access as well.

The best analogy I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing!

ImageNet dataset is the main thing AFAIK. But even so I find Dr. Li's contribution big enough. For a context, datasets for computer vision at her time were mostly small, so nn was rarely considered a good method for CV. Not until AlexNet won the challenge, and the world changes after that. I remember many people initially scoffed at ImageNet, arguing that the dataset was flawed and that a “bad” method like NN (AlexNet) could only win because of those flaws. Simply saying “paying” is an understatement because we also need to account for the academic politics of her time. A little fun fact, even if most research papers nowadays try to propose new dataset, if we take imagenet and pretrain the backbone, we usually end up with a very strong baseline.

Btw, not sure why you think Karpathy has a bigger impact than Fei-Fei Li. I can't think what he is doing that is actually changing the playing field.

A very good and solid guide.

When I was a college student, I attended a conference regarding IoT. I still remember a developer of a face ID software for a safe box was so sure that their technology was secure because Apple deployed face ID on iPhone. Then a few days later, an article about fooling iPhone's face ID with a printed paper with the victim's face got published.

I am starting to think the only one stay at OpenAI in the end is Sam Altman at this rate.

it's OK, he can use AI to replace everyone that left

Wow. Good insight! I have never viewed vacation this way. I always thought the only reason vacation exists is because companies have to give vacation due to laws and well being of their employee. So when I get some days off, I always feel a bit guilty because the company is losing out something.

You feel guilty that the law doesn’t allow you to give your entire time to a corporation? I can ease your conscience, the law is simply an equilibrium where capitals long term exploitation of labor and the risk of violent revolution are carefully balanced.

> So when I get some days off, I always feel a bit guilty because the company is losing out something.

Do you feel guilty when they pay you too? Paid vacation is a form of compensation.

Every day of your ~30 days of vacation which you do not use, they likely have to pay you out as a full day's worth of wages anyways.

Most will prefer you take a month or two each year off, recuperate, and come back refreshed and productive, rather than having to deal with the bookkeeping and tax hassle of paying you extra.

I hope you’re being sarcastic.

RIP.

Yeah I was confused for a moment there.
