Some exciting updates for Cell2Sentence!! Turns out fine-tuning language models on sequences of gene names works pretty well. DM me if you'd like to discuss the work/have some H100s and are interested in helping out!

If you think OpenAI Sora is a creative toy like DALLE, ... think again. Sora is a data-driven physics engine. It is a simulation of many worlds, real or fantastical. The simulator learns intricate rendering, "intuitive" physics, long-horizon reasoning, and semantic grounding, all…

@shxf0072 also out of curiosity, did you check whether the blue and orange outliers actually correspond to the first and last layers? it seems like multiple layers have the same color on the plot
