We have spent the past few weeks carefully annotating videos and experimenting with VLMs for subtask annotation. This type of annotation is incredibly important for long-horizon tasks, since robots need a more granular learning signal than high-level instructions like “clean your room.” We ran 50+ experiments, created a new diverse benchmark for this type of annotation, and built a pipeline that is 19x cheaper than humans. It works well as a first pass for labeling, speeding up human annotation and making it substantially cheaper.

In LLMs, Attention Is All You Need is one of those papers everyone agrees is worth studying. What would be the equivalent in robotic manipulation or computer vision applied to robotics? (Besides Transformers, since that would basically take us back to AIAYN) Not necessarily SOTA with 200 GPUs lol I’m looking for a paper worth reproducing to really learn from it. Which one would you pick, and why? submitted by /u/nettrotten [link] [Kommentare]

Moved back in with the parents back in 2022. Worked and put in $1000 from most paychecks into crypto for about a year. XRP, HBAR, XLM, BTC where my mains. Turned my $2k portfolio into about 20k. Over the next bull market It went up nearly 600%. Sold everything back in November close to the Bitcoin peak. I bought some land in a rapidly developing country. Selling that land now for a 50% profit and about to dca everything back into crypto, maybe some metals too. Running on straight instincts. submitted by /u/a-sad-chad [link] [Kommentare]

Premise: this work is my first year PhD, and I dropped out for personal reasons. I still want to do research but independently. I have tried to submit my explainability paper to MICCAI. Sadly, for doubtful/good reasons, it got rejected. Among the reviewers, one explicitly suggested to make it stronger and that the work is "novel". I was wondering if a good strategy would be to work on it more (maybe improving also the time it takes for doing experiments, since currently it's a way too big model) and then submitting it to a journal, or first submitting to a workshop and then extend the research for a journal publication. Strategically wise, is it good to first workshop and then journal? MLCN/iMIMIC would be my choices. But I hear a lot about workshop being suboptimal. Given I am not currently optimising for a PhD, does it make sense to go for the long run and publish it as a journal paper/another conference? Thank you in advance. submitted by /u/KingPowa [link] [Kommentare]

Funny to think it's been 3 years since one of the best arbitraging opportunities in crypto. Were you sidelined during the SVB drama or did you capitalize on the re-peg? submitted by /u/levidizajn [link] [Kommentare]

Long story short I bought And now that I completed the purchase it showed pending from my bank account but not the balance in my coin base account and now it's saying it could be a malicious coin? Tried to reach out to customer service and it's all a chat bot that says payment went through. Should I dispute with my bank? submitted by /u/WoMan-onthe-moon [link] [Kommentare]

My rig 9600x 5070 ti 32 gb I built it mainly for gaming, but most of the time I am working outside home. The room has AC I recently wondered if I could put my PC to mine while I am not using it. I really only have time for gaming in the weekends In my house I have solar, and I am sure if my PC is powered on 24/7, and also the AC, the amount of energy my solar panels generate will cover the costs of the PC + AC and also my own costs. I never mined before Is it worth it? Based on reality how much one is making per month mining? How worried would I have to be about the 5070 ti wearing out? submitted by /u/industrysaurus [link] [Kommentare]
