Thanks @mohitbansal.bsky.social for the wonderful Distinguished Lecture on agents and multimodal generation. This got so many of us here at Stony Brook excited for the potential in these areas. Also, thanks for spending time with our students & sharing your wisdom. It was a pleasure hosting you!

Why did @duolingoverde.bsky.social go with the villain vibe for the year in review this year? 🤔

Lots of posts about LLMs trivially generating websites. How do I prompt them to generate a full (static) website with CSS and JS too? The HTML is fine but I can't fix (a lot of) issues in the generated CSS and JS. I feel like we still need domain expertise to make sure these things work 😅

The question that a reviewer should ask themselves is: Does this paper take a gradient step in a promising direction? Is the community better off with this paper published? If the answer is yes, then the recommendation should be to accept.

A new paper, "Let Me Speak Freely" has been spreading rumors that structured generation hurts LLM evaluation performance. Well, we've taken a look and found serious issue in this paper, and shown, once again, that structured generation improves evaluation performance!

I noticed a lot of starter packs skewed towards faculty/industry, so I made one of just NLP & ML students: go.bsky.app/vju2ux Students do different research, go on the job market, and recruit other students. Ping me and I'll add you!

📢 Ultimate test of #NLP bluesky: I need emergency reviewers for NAACL submissions on encoders (one multilingual, one for sentence embeddings). Help a desperate editor abandoned by the ACs! Author response starts tomorrow, so that's a true emergency. If you're my hero, lmk your openreview profile.

Excited to release Tulu 3! We worked hard to try and make the best open post-training recipe we could, and the results are good! I was lucky enough to work on almost every stage of the pipeline in one way or another. Some comments + highlights ⬇️

Meet Tülu 3, a set of state-of-the-art instruct models with fully open data, eval code, and training algorithms. We invented new methods for fine-tuning language models with RL and built upon best practices to scale synthetic instruction and preference data. Demo, GitHub, paper, and models 👇

I've spent the last two years scouring all available resources on RLHF specifically and post training broadly. Today, with the help of a totally cracked team, we bring you the fruits of that labor — Tülu 3, an entirely open frontier model post training recipe. We beat Llama 3.1 Instruct. Thread.

ICLR should not allow public discussion until after decisions. It allows Oscars-style award/accept campaigns by high-profile allies. Even for great papers, that can’t be part of the review process. The only reason it didn’t happen before is because it was against community norms, which are changing.
