Thanks Rob for supporting this work! Also, I'm going on the industry job market this year and actively looking for research scientist opportunities on LLM, data & label efficiency, and reasoning capabilities.
🧵 Heard all the buzz around distilling from OpenAI models? Check out @jifanz's latest work SIEVE - showing how strategic distillation can make LLM development radically more cost-effective while matching quality.

Check out our poster about humor and LLMs at #2908 today in the noon poster session! I’ll have to miss it, but Rob and Lalit will both be there to chat.
There is a ton of interest in the question of whether AI can be be funny: www.bbc.com/future/artic.... Our paper at NeurIPS investigates the humor generation capabilities of the latest and greatest AI models using one of world’s largest humor datasets! arxiv.org/pdf/2406.10522
