What we’re about
We love machine intelligence and deep learning. There have been exciting developments in the field. From human-level translating, transcribing audio, recognising objects, to composing music, and general-domain reinforcement learning, a lot of stuff has been happening in the field. We are passionate about learning and sharing the knowledge in the community by hosting regular paper reading sessions and other events.
A big thanks to Si Pham, who set up a discord server for our discussion: https://discord.com/invite/SpqXbwKw
As a Canberra-based community, we look forward to collaborating with local researchers, organisers, and businesses owners.
To our sponsors:
Thanks to Trellis Data, we have a regular gathering place. They are all about deep learning, and are bringing the best Australian deep learning research into the government and everyday life.

See all- Paper Discussion: A Path Towards Autonomous Machine IntelligenceNeeds location
LLM and Multi-modal LLM has demonstrated it strong capacity on a range of tasks. It passed the Turing test and continues to challenge on more difficult tasks, like humanity's last exam.
However, some researchers still believe that to get an even powerful model, we need to build a model to learn fundamentals about the world via visual inputs. In this meetup, we'll look into Yann LeCun's vision for the future of AI. He proposed a new model architecture: JEPA (Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture). He positioned JEPA (along with ideas like energy-based models and world models) as crucial pieces toward building what he calls “autonomous AI agents” — a goal he believes is more realistic and robust than trying to just make bigger LLMs.
