Yes. Weekly. But we have a huge team.

There’s always people interested. Maybe not always AI engineers.

You could do a series where people summarize accessible papers. A lot of literature review papers are readable even by a layperson

We have a book/paper club going at work where the engineers present a recent publication

I worked remotely from Boston since 2016. Didn’t seem common at the time, but startups were much more flexible even back then :)

Getting harder and harder to park around here. The city keeps reserving spaces for municipal vehicles.

MGH Sexual Health Clinic. Just on other side of the river. Very easy.

I’m not clever enough to fully understand what is required, but I’d be curious to see how an LM would behave in a DOTA setting. IIRC the OpenAI bot was RL-based and (1) took a lot of training cycles, (2) didn’t generalize all that well to different styles of adversarial play. Some of the qualities suggested by the papers linked by other commenters would seem advantageous…

Anybody else getting 90s text adventure flashbacks?

Wow that’s very cool!

He’s very close to retirement and the hours are more and more limited. Great quality but will need to find an alternative soon…

Today’s Collision in Malden. I think I remember seeing a flyer for painless when I was last in there a few weeks ago. They did an awesome job on my vehicle.

Prospect Hill is much closer for me too! Join you next Friday?

Was going to go this morning but seems to be raining. Does it happen rain or shine?

Oh wow. That looks fantastic.

Very interesting. Thank you!

Awesome list. I've walked by Pandemonium a few times. Love board games. Will have to check that out.

Signed up!

Oooh... that's really interesting. Thank you! I'll take a look. Sounds like a nice community.

Yeah, I think finding a regular group of folks to hang out with would be great. If I can do that while also being outdoors or physically active in some way, that's even better. Open to all the suggestions you made above :)

Great suggestion. Will check those out!

My (known) interests include photography, woodworking, nature walks, biking, board games, gardening. Probably forgetting some, but that's what comes to mind :)

Oh wow. That seems super interesting. I admit that 6:30AM fitness isn't what I first think of, but I do need to find ways to stay active! Thanks for this one.

Haha. Yes, I figured I wouldn't be alone in that. I did attempt to move away once or twice, but always ended up back here. It's a fine place to live :)

I got food poisoning after eating lemon meringue pie in 2003. I think in a few years I may be ready to order it again.
