Distill.pub has such high quality content consistently. It's a shame they don't seem to be active anymore.

imvg•3h ago

I agree. Just the usage of animations for explanations was a huge step forward. I wonder why the flagship ML/AI conferences have not adopted the distill digital template for papers yet. I think that would be the first step. The quality would follow

gwern•1h ago

The quality would not follow because Distill.pub publications take literally hundreds of man-hours for the Distill part. Highly skilled man-hours too, to make any of this work on the Web reliably. (Source: I once asked Olah basically the same question: "How many man-hours of work by Google-tier web developers could those visualizations possibly be, Michael? 10?")

I've been wondering at what point AI assistants are going to reduce that to a manageable level? It's unfortunately not obvious what the main bottlenecks are, though Chris and Shan might have a good sense.
