LinkedIn says its AI slop button is working

Engadget

LinkedIn recently began testing a dedicated reporting tool for AI slop. After only a few weeks, the company says it's already improving the quality of the posts people see in their feeds. The "seems like AI slop" button has been used more than a million times since its launch, LinkedIn's Chief Product Officer Hari Srinivasan shared in an update. "Members are now experiencing 40% less views on what we classify as AI slop from just a few weeks ago," he wrote. The company has so far been cagey in sharing exactly how it's using user-generated reports to weed out supposed slop.


'If we don't fight back, we don't have a future': the journalist taking on the 'tech fascists' of Silicon Valley

'If we don't fight back, we don't have a future': the journalist taking on the'tech fascists' of Silicon Valley I n April, Gil Durán was permanently banned from Elon Musk's X for posting just two words. Durán was responding to a post from the tech company Palantir outlining its 22 point "technological manifesto", which praised American "hard power", western culture and AI weapons, denounced inclusivity and called for compulsory national service. Durán responded: "TLDR: Fascism" (TLDR is short for "too long, didn't read").

Neural Information Processing Systems

Instead of training asingle model that combines all the frames, we formulate the dynamic modeling problem with an incremental learning paradigm in which per-frame model difference is trained to complement the adaption of a base model on the current frame.


Humanoid robots perform advanced martial arts at Chinese New Year gala

Al Jazeera

China's annual gala on Lunar New Year's Eve has showcased Beijing's giant leap in technology as humanoid robots took centre stage to perform a joint martial arts routine featuring several firsts. China's Spring Festival Gala, which aired on Monday on state broadcaster CGTN, has gone viral, drawing nearly half a million views on YouTube. The performance marked a stark contrast with last year's show, when robots twirled handkerchiefs and performed simple movements. The first robots to appear were Noetix's Bumi models, who performed a comedy sketch. Unitree's robots later exhibited martial arts alongside child artists, including backflips and trampoline jumps, followed by Magiclab's humanoids in a musical segment.

PolynomialNeuralFields forSubbandDecompositionandManipulation

Neural Information Processing Systems

Neural fields have emerged as a new paradigm for representing signals, thanks to their ability to do it compactly while being easy to optimize. In most applications, however, neural fields are treated like black boxes, which precludes manysignal manipulation tasks.


PyNeRF: Pyramidal Neural Radiance Fields

Neural Information Processing Systems

We propose a simple modification to grid-based models by training model heads at different spatial grid resolutions. At render time, we simply use coarser grids to render samples that cover larger volumes.
