This just happened.

Excited to join Prof. Lingjie Liu’s @lingjieliu.bsky.social group at @upenn.edu for a research internship soon! Looking forward to the research ahead!

A telltale sign of a scientific mind is the openness to investigate. Dismissing ideas only on face-value is analogous to being illogical.

The effects of lowering attention spans will have many downstream effects. To understand, try this simple thought experiment: Imagine the general population’s reactions after learning that there is life elsewhere in the universe? Now how do you think the reactions will evolve in a week? 2 weeks?

Bob Dylan is such an undeniable legend! He followed his passion and creative spirit even though it meant defying expectations. No wonder Steve Jobs considered him as an idol. He’s mine too!

Mumbai International Airport. India’s Infrastructure is transforming at a massive rate! That being said, I am looking forward to being in the US again soon!

US and India are at very different stages in their journey. This time around it feels like the party has started in India!

Indian infrastructure is undergoing a massive transformation. So the best time to visit India is ~5 years from now.

Yeah… I am going to need more than one cup here.

Why is everything getting renovated at the same time in India? Development without regards for present utility is not a good choice.

I’m trying to pinpoint why I am so exhausted by sunset in India: I think it has to do with a combination of sensory overload and ‘controlled’ chaos.

Them: “how are you?” Me: “Doing great! a different experience this…..” Them: already moved on

The new Mumbai-Delhi expressway is impressive. Pretty much like the US Interstate highways.

If you want to experience high entropy, come to India. The emergent vehicular patterns are fascinating! Not sure about research, because it’d be very difficult to collect replicable data unless it’s a highly curated environment which defeats the purpose really.

India has a problem of under-regulation. I am on a national highway and there no lane lines. None.

What rabbit holes have you fallen into, today?

Stop watching videos, start interacting with worlds. Stoked to share CAT4D, our new method for turning videos into dynamic 3D scenes that you can move through in real-time! cat-4d.github.io arxiv.org/abs/2411.18613

recommendmeabook.com This seems like a good idea, except in the cases where the page contains spoilers, or the author has a tendency to be inconsistent.

Looking for a book to read?

Find new books to read without judging the cover. Read first pages of novels without bias, and reveal the author and title if you're hooked.

@georgehotz.bsky.social is here! Bluesky is going to be so much fun.

My feed is full of paper recs and interesting thoughts from people I care about, which is pretty much all I wish in a social app. Also the fact that I have connected with over 1k (mostly) researchers and academics here is awesome! Can’t wait to start sharing my work. Stay Tuned!

There is a certain energy on this app that gets me even more excited to do research.

We've released our paper "Generating 3D-Consistent Videos from Unposed Internet Photos"! Video models like Luma generate pretty videos, but sometimes struggle with 3D consistency. We can do better by scaling them with 3D-aware objectives. 1/N page: genechou.com/kfcw

Doing my part to report the bots as I encounter them so we can keep this app clean for as long as possible

I prompted Grok to generate an image of a utopian future where humans and robots co-exist and this is what I got 🙂

go.bsky.app/MfnrAdL Let me know if you want to be added, or have any suggestions!

This is the future I want for us

I think @cpaxton.bsky.social mentioned that every time he opens X, he learns something new. Starting to feel the same with 🦋

Just read it. Quick thoughts: 1. The internal story of a company can be wildly different than what is portrayed by the media 2. Andrej Karpathy is a very driven individual 3. Elon Musk communicates very effectively via email t.co/W2S3EMcpoc

I am trying to create a robotics and ai starter pack on bluesky: go.bsky.app/DfAoaJ1 Very incomplete please comment with suggestions (or just if you're missing and want to be added!)
