NIPS is required to comply with US sanctions because it is an US conference / foundation.

All the more reason for China to create and promote its own conferences around the world. With so many top AI institutions and talents being Chinese, there is really no reason to give US conferences the privilege of highest global prestige.

Wait is finally over. Only available in SEA and Latin America for now, but it will go completely global soon.

More on Seedance 2.0, apparently it's getting agent support through Volcano Engine and reducing the creation/dev time by 80%.

Some glowing reviews of GLM-5.1.

It remains hard to challenge Claude in full performance because Chinese open source models are smaller. Right now, the speculation on line is of a 10T parameter Claude model

Seedance et al. have been a huge boon for geopolitics memes.

Evidently not, seeing as they just reversed course.

SHANGHAI, March 27 (Reuters) - A ‌leading artificial intelligence conference on Friday reversed a policy change that would have banned papers from researchers at any entity under U.S. sanctions, soon after a boycott from China's largest federation for technology professionals. The Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems, known as NeurIPS, published the new policy earlier this week, saying its California-based ⁠foundation had to comply with U.S. law.

NeurIPS - where AI companies and experts meet every December to present peer-reviewed research and discuss the latest breakthroughs - said on Friday the policy had been issued in error and apologised.

The thing is if they really had to follow the rules , then it’s true they have to ban Chinese companies under US sanctions from attending . So I don’t understand why they are now saying it was an error . LMAO . . Hope the US government won’t summon them . Lol

By the way, if you want to use this latest test model, you cannot enable Thinking and Search; otherwise, it will still be the previous version of the test model.

But don't waste time doing Pelicans SVG testing; it's terrible.

They just updated again, and the SVG performance has been greatly improved.

Could very well have been the US Government that said to allow them. Having Chinese scholars attend and present is the easiest way for the US and others to see what Chinese researchers are up to and to potentially recruit them.
