Hey babe, I may be biased but I have very little variance. Call me xxx
Regularization is a scam created by big variance to sell more bias
I emailed an author about a paper where the ENTIRE contribution is about a dataset they curated + constructed. The question: has the dataset been released? No, we decided not to. What absurdity. I’m tempted to ask arxiv to take down the paper. How is this science?
.@mer__edith tells @cpassariello, “VC's require hype to get a return on investment because they need an IPO or an acquisition … You don't get rich by the technology working, you get rich by people believing it works long enough that one of those two things gets you some money."
New preprint! 🎉 We examine two contrasting yet common assumptions around what it means for an NLG model or system to be “fair” or “good”: 1⃣ treating all social groups the same, where “bias” = any diff in outputs (invariance), or 2⃣customizing outputs to them (adaptation).
Thank you to the many mentors, collaborators and most importantly brilliant students with whom I get to work.

Had so much fun attending the @CIFAR_News AICan, the conference for the Pan-Canadian AI Strategy, in the beautiful St. John's, Newfoundland. I saw so many Puffins, Common Murres, and a lot of fog and mist, and had so much cod in different forms (well, mostly Fish & Chips).
