Trade-offs in Data Memorization via Strong Data Processing Inequalities
Recent research demonstrated that training large language models involves memorization of a significant fraction of training data. Such memorization can lead to privacy violations when training on sensitive user data and thus motivates the study of data memorization's role in learning. In this work, we develop a general approach for proving lower bounds on excess data memorization, that relies on a new connection between strong data processing inequalities and data memorization. We then demonst…

If a starting date is mentioned in an academic job posting, and if the job involves teaching, which customarily follows a specific calendar, I’d have thought that it’s rather obvious that there are reasons for this particular starting date.
Of course, you can always ask, but it’s typically not possible to move the semester to accommodate you.

Southeast Asian provider of ‘infrastructure laundering’ for scams is sanctioned by US https://therecord.media/southeast-asian-provider-of-scam-infrastructure-sanctioned

The Office of Civil Rights in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS/OCR) used to do a fairly good job of protecting patient's sensitive information. They did this by enforcing the HIPAA security rules and penalties for non-compliance included fines, mandatory compliance programs, and CEO liability.

Michael Flynn and The Hollow
Editor’s note: This a long investigative story, but it is SO VERY important to know what is happening in Sarasota County!  Michael Flynn (former White House national security adviser; convicted but Trump-pardoned convicted criminal, and a Englewood FL resident) is trying to establish The Hollow ( 826 S Moon Dr, Venice, FL 34292) as a hotbed ...

Ich habe einige Sachen die ich gerne immer in Sync halte (Kalender #DevonThink einige aktuelle Projektdaten) nach der unscheduled downtime der #OvGU Cloud Anfang letzter Woche schon auf mein privates NAS verlegt. Eigentlich denke ich, das hat keine USV, ist nur mit DSL angebunden und wird von einem Amateuer gehostet, aber ehrlich gesagt ist es deutlich hochverfügbarer als die #OvGU Cloud, die von ihrer scheduled Downtime am Freitag Samstag immer noch nicht wieder da ist.

#gsa has told #nasa to vacate it’s only office in #nyc
#columbia and nasa with about 2/3 of the 120 people in the building being researchers employed by Columbia. This lab could not exist at all outside of nyc.
This lab, along with #gfdl in Princeton NJ were the first to come up with how sensitive the #climate is to inputs of CO2 in the 1979 Charney report.
We still make estimates of future climate change today.
