I am happy to inform you that the game that I co-produced reached IGN (youtube.com/watch?v=Bo4Eay8Y…). It has its premiere on Steam today (store.steampowered.com/app/2…). A free demo is available. It is a horror x escape room. Another closed project - looking forward to the future!

Very impressive. Platform @institutepasteur really delivers. Congrats.
Hi all! #I2K has started and I would like to make a shameless plug of @institutpasteur people contributions A thread 👇

I would not like to be a CEO of CrowdStrike today. Good thing is that in EU we have less of their product than in USA. A fair question: does it have a black swan potential?

🚨 I find this important for the CV community: Vision transformers brought some long-range pattern matching to the CV, removing some CNN limits. It came with a price. Now, we have an adaptation of (x)LSTMs to Vision called ViL. IMHO worth checking! 🔍📄arxiv.org/abs/2406.04303

Mistral is France’s answer to OpenAI. And it’s all open source. They just threw Paris’s largest ever AI hackathon. 1,000+ hackers applied to build what’s possible with open source LLMs. Here are the finalists from the @MistralAI x @cerebral_valley hackathon in Paris (🧵):

#googlecolab now comes with native integration for RAPIDS cuDF. To boost your code, use this single command at the top of your #NVIDIA GPU-enabled Colab notebook: %load_ext cudf.pandas

This was one of the reasons I stopped valorizing my work via publishing. I was lucky I could.
Amazing review verbatim - I'm speechless. The computer vision community should be ashamed that this is the state of our peer review system "Strengths: A good analysis is performed and some conclusion are been drawn. "Weaknesses: These more of an incremenatal work no detailed novelty is presenat. "Paper rating (pre-rebuttal): Strong Reject "5. Justification of rating As tghe novelty is low I recomend a strong reject." @eccvconf #ECCV2024

I am worried: Asked if future versions of OpenAI products might answer a question differently in different countries based on that country's values, Altman said, "It'll be different for users with different values. The countries issue I think, is somewhat less important."

We are ready to program GPTs right now. New APIs, shop, custom GPTs are only few news: youtube.com/watch?v=U9mJuUkh…

I am not sure that I understand it correctly, but if yes, it is the end of Zoom.
Zoom updates its Terms of Service to become the NSA 2.0: I'm in disbelief at this update because of how far-sweeping it is, yet here we are. Direct quotes from section 10.2 "You consent to Zoom's access, use, collection, creation, modification, distribution, processing, sharing, maintenance, storage of [ the stuff you say in meetings ] for any purpose.... ... you hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assign to Zoom ... and your end users to unconditionally and irrevocably assign to Zoom all right, title, and interest in and to [ the stuff you say in meetings ], including all Proprietary rights... " Does this strike anyone else as far-reaching, utterly insane, and totally unethical? Gentle reminder that Google Meets is free, and that Zoom insists workers come into the office because they admit their business model only made sense in the pandemic. You can read more about Zoom's claims to own all the stuff you say during meetings, the stuff your users say in meetings, and probably the things your children will say near your phone when it's locked here, on their website, as they commit corporate suicide: explore.zoom.us/en/terms/

#ZIDAS This year we managed to merge training on Colocalization with playing a board game. Nothing feels better than competing against Reviewer 3 and proving that your experimental plan works ;) Thanks to @romainGuiet @ChiguireKun @LeBIOP

One of the examples of technology where the quality is not yet ready. Same as NN in the 90s. However, when the quality rises above a certain threshold, it will explode and change the world we know...
🧵🧠 We're witnessing incredible scientific progress in image & text reconstruction from fMRI nowadays. But what about reconstructing video from fMRI? Allow me to introduce our recent preprint: Mind-Video arxiv.org/abs/2305.11675 mind-video.com/ drive.google.com/drive/folde…

Interesting story. I am curious if this trend will grow with converting into something serious for yacht owners: livescience.com/animals/orca…
