Paper reading hike:
a mountain of papers

Papers go on a hike! We discuss advances in CS as we go, stop at a gazebo to go through the papers of the day, and then descend back from the heights.

Papers of the day:
- Bigger, Better, Faster: Human-level Atari with human-level efficiency ⬅️ advances in model-free RL
- FlashAttention-2: Faster Attention with Better Parallelism and Work Partitioning ⬅️ classic CS improves computational properties of attention again and everyone wants it

You don't have to be an expert in ML to attend, but please do read the papers. Bring sun protection, water, hiking footwear.

⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️

Статьи отправляются в поход! Обсуждаем прогресс в компьютерных науках по пути, останавливаемся в беседке, чтобы пройтись по статьям дня, затем спускаемся обратно с высот.

When: 06 Sun 10:00-14:20

📍 F0RTHSP4CE, Khorava St, 18, openspace

The word panopticon is literally translates from Greek as "a space in which everything is visible." In the meetup, listeners will be able to learn about technologies to ensure their own privacy. Basically cryptographic and technical methods will be described.

There also will be a small introduction to the problem.

Слово паноптикум буквально расшифровывается с греческого как «пространство, в котором видно все». В докладе слушатели смогут узнать про технологии для обеспечения собственной приватности. В основном будут рассмотрены криптографические методы защиты.

Также будет небольшое введение в проблематику.

HACK BASICS (theory):
Intellectual tradition of criticism of technological progress

When: Wednesday, August 2, 20:00
Languages: English; or Russian if everyone understands it

Nowadays we often hear concerns about modern technologies such as artificial intelligence, alternate or augmented reality, neural interfaces and genetic engineering. In the announced talk I'll try to show that this isn't a modern trend but criticism of technological progress is an important part of public debates since the very beginning of mankind. I'll cover a plenty of authors with different levels of concern, appreciation and radicalism, from Plato through Orwell to Kaczynski. Also it will be shown how the hacker culture tends to solve the problem with a good balance between concern and respect to technology.

The rest of this week is full of events, here is short digest for you. Welcome!
