We do a journal series at work. Rule is every engineer has to do one before we get to do another one. Gives presenting skills and forces us to hear new stuff since we all have different preferences.

Big issue is that recently many of the coolest advancements have been by Facebook, openai, and google and they are increasingly releasing “reports” instead of “papers”. We are getting a lot more “And then they did this incredibly revolutionary thing but only said they used a ‘model’”. They aren’t giving details because they want to keep their work private. Big bummer.

I also read any papers that make the top of this sub, and I’ll usually read a couple of the best performing papers from the big conferences

Is it "open source" for anyone to access? I think such blogs are an excellent advertisements for the companies

I've noticed that trend too, it's disappointing, especially when considering that most of these companies' AI teams were built on published papers and open-source stuff

I've been doing that too and tbh. I like to take my time and read papers thoroughly doing that for each paper that reaches the top of this sub is pretty time-consuming, but overall this sub is an amazing resource to start.

thanks !!
