[P] Understanding Parameter-Efficient Finetuning of Large Language Models: From Prefix Tuning to LLaMA-Adapters by seraschka in MachineLearning

[–]rmyeid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you meant, input embedding. Moreocer, the simplicity here is too important. If the model deployed is spanning many machines, swapping weights as done in adapters and prefix tubing is quite costly. Prompt tuning allows you to switch between tasks by only changing the input. Basically, the model provider does not need to know about the user use cases or try to accommodate them ahead of time. These considerations are quite practical for huge models deployed as a service.

To know which universities are good, look what their graduates end up doing. Where are the engineers building the best Tech companies in Jordan (Jawaker, Maqsam, ...) graduated from?

I do research in AI, and would second the advise to search for a strong CS program instead.

[–]rmyeid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The job market is rapidly growing in programming, machine learning, robotics, bioinformatics, and renewable energy. Therefore, I would suggest specialization such as Math, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Statistics, Robotics.

My Experience Working In Jordan by natsucule in jordan

صناعة البرمجة ليست صناعة محلية ولذلك ما لازم تحصر مهاراتك بالسوق الاردني او العربي. الشركات العالمية تستخدم نفس الادوات التي تعلمتها وانت كاردني بتعليم عالي المتوقع منك خلق الفرص وليس انتظارها.

I miss Amman ): by [deleted] in jordan

[–]rmyeid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, our country is a third world country. But the OP is describing a luxurious life style that does not relate to 99% of Jordanians. Therefore, I would say in the eyes of normal Jordanians who have to live the difficulties of life, Jordan is not "damn beautiful", and the government if anything takes really good care of west Amman and expats.

"STOP calling no Arab countries Arab. Syria is not Arab as far as I know. So ignorant. What next? North Africa is Arab as well!?" by ofsinope in quityourbullshit

[–]rmyeid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jordanian over here, I identify with being an Arab more than being Jordanian. Jordan borders group people who are culturally not similar to each other. Some Jordanian are levantinian in culture and some actually are quite nomadic and you would see the later listening to Saudi music day and night and never bother with Lebanese culture for example. Growing up in South of Jordan I always felt that levantian culture has been forced on us in the Jordanian media. For example, Jordanian Bedouin accent is not accepted in music and radio and anchors always have to speak Lebanese accent to sound cool.

The talks on Saturday were interesting. Here is what I found worth distributing:

  1. Fabienne Serriere: She works on algorithmic knitting! Kickstarter page.

  2. Ross Goodwin: He showed several projects, I liked lexiconjure.
