Academia 2.0 just dropped
Quoted post by Ryan Shea: x.com/ryaneshea/status/2109319782160011267
This bothered some ppl, so want to clarify that this is additive to regular Academia, not a replacement.
If I was still in research and I was working on one of these problems, I'd see the collective output of the community as a free and precious extra resource.
The whole "Academia 2.0" vision is downstream from two facts:
1. LLM inference translates to research output
2. There's a lot of ppl with access to a lot of LLM inference
We just need new infrastructure to channel that LLM inference productively. That means:
- Aggregating results: the Big O Speedrun site
- Helping people organize: the Big O Speedrun discord
- Keeping the community updated: bigOspeedrun
