The popular page shows tracks with the number of sites that posted them and links to Bandcamp and other platforms. It includes sections such as Latest, Popular, Indexed Sites, Spy, and Archives.
Hyperlane is an open framework for blockchain interoperability. It supports bridging, swapping and sending arbitrary data across more than 150 chains and 7 virtual machines, including EVM, Solana, Cosmos and custom VM architectures. It also covers interchain messaging, multichain asset issuance and cross-chain governance.
A TechPolicy.Press discussion with Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor, authors of AI Snake Oil: What Artificial Intelligence Can Do, What It Can’t, and How to Tell the Difference, published September 24 by Princeton University Press. The conversation covers AI hype and how to distinguish AI that does not work from real promise.
Early days of AI is a blog post by Elad Gil that discusses the early development of machine learning systems and the AI hype cycle. Gil argues that recent advances like transformers and diffusion models represent a new era, distinct from previous AI. He draws on his experience at Google, Twitter, and as an investor.
Optuna is an open source automatic hyperparameter optimization software framework designed for machine learning. It provides an imperative, define-by-run style user API with eager search spaces, algorithms that prune unpromising trials, and parallelization of searches over multiple threads or processes without modifying code. It is framework agnostic and can be installed with pip on Python 3.10 or newer.
Tune is a Python library for experiment execution and hyperparameter tuning at any scale. It supports machine learning frameworks including PyTorch, XGBoost, and TensorFlow and Keras, and runs algorithms such as Population Based Training (PBT) and HyperBand/ASHA. It also integrates with hyperparameter optimization tools including Ax, BayesOpt, BOHB, Nevergrad, and Optuna.
Loic Tetrel is a blog about computer science and data science topics. Posts cover subjects such as enabling GPU acceleration in Windows 11 Hyper-V virtual machines, using Android TV without a Google account, and Windows/Linux dual-boot.
OpenFace is a free and open source face recognition implementation with deep neural networks, written in Python and Torch and based on the CVPR 2015 FaceNet paper. It detects faces, aligns them, and embeds faces on a 128-dimensional unit hypersphere.
A newsletter article by tech critic Paris Marx arguing that generative AI is a technology hype cycle. It cites SimilarWeb data showing ChatGPT worldwide traffic fell 9.7% in June and unique users dropped 5.7%, and reports that growth began stalling in March.
The Story of AI Winters and What it Teaches Us Today is a Turing Post article that outlines five AI winter periods between 1966 and 1988. It details the causes of each collapse in AI hype, lessons learned by researchers, and how these setbacks shaped the development of modern neural networks and current AI technology.
A Gary Marcus article on his Marcus on AI Substack asking when the GenAI bubble might burst and how that could happen within 12 months. It cites survey findings on generative AI and security, notes $50B in and $3B out, and argues that hallucinations remain and that the industry is built on hype.
XPipe is a connection hub that accesses server infrastructure from a local machine. It works on top of installed command-line programs and requires no setup on remote systems. It manages remote connections, remote file management, terminal launching, SSH support, container runtime integrations, hypervisors, remote apps, and concurrency synchronization through a git repository. A Community plan is free; Homelab is $5/month or $40/year, and Professional is $10/month or $80/year.
