"An example I would give is coming up with a new optimizer and testing it on a series of ML baselines from 100M to 10B parameters. At this time I don’t expect the models to be able to implement the newest problems the frontier labs are facing alone. I also expect academics to be fully priced out from these tools."
Perhaps we will have then #researchslop as third category besides #aislop and #workslop
Let's go for #sloppyfication!
