Tinker: Call for Community Projects - Thinking Machines Lab
We launched Tinker to enable builders and researchers to train models their own way, whether they’re conducting studies or customizing models for new applications. We plan to publish regular roundups of the coolest projects from the Tinker community, and we invite you to submit what you’ve been Tinkering on to be featured on our blog. Below are some broad suggestions for what we hope to see from the Tinker featured projects, and some specific research directions we would particularly love to see pursued. We’re interested in featuring ML research projects, AI-enabled research in other domains, custom models, and other contributions. Some examples: Your submission should include a write-up and, preferably, an open-source release of your code. We encourage you to focus on rigor and clear evaluation in your write-ups: crisp charts, raw output examples, clear comparisons to alternative approaches or models on relevant benchmarks and metrics. Tinkering is experimenting — we want to feature d
