Precise Attribute Intensity Control in Large Language Models via Targeted Representation Editing
Precise attribute intensity control--generating Large Language Model (LLM) outputs with specific, user-defined attribute intensities--is crucial for AI systems adaptable to diverse user expectations. Current LLM alignment methods, however, typically provide only directional or open-ended guidance, failing to reliably achieve exact attribute intensities. We address this limitation with three key designs: (1) reformulating precise attribute intensity control as a target-reaching problem, rather t…

Only using a CRT and playing from VHS gives you the rich analog sound and picture that the filmmakers intended.
I’m hearing and seeing so many details that get lost in the digital harshness of Ultra HD Blu-ray.

Feeling helpless? Don’t. All of this resistance makes a real and concrete difference. Honestly, the fact that this huge chunk of local residents is giving a visible, sustained “HELL NO” all the time is basically the •only• thing holding them back at this point — but it •is• making a difference.
If there were a sense of blanket permission, a sense that nobody is watching and nobody cares, a sense that there will never be consequences…we’d be in a whole different circle of hell right now.

Work Function Mapping Across a-In2Se3 to α-In2Se3 to γ-InSe in RF-Sputtered Thin Films
Indium selenide is a phase-change chalcogenide whose polymorphism enables a variety of physical properties to be tuned. Here we directly quantify the evolution of the surface work function across the amorphous-to-crystalline transition in RF-sputtered In2Se3 thin films grown on c-plane Al2O3 (001). By varying deposition temperature (100-500 °C) and film thickness, we establish processing windows for a- In2Se3, α-In2Se3, and γ-InSe, and correlate structure with electronic and morphological pr…

Re this from @…, also crucial to note that while cars are probably the greatest head injury while on a bicycle, they’re not the only danger. Wear a helmet on the trails too, kids.
