Intro lecture done, i never thought I’d be teaching in such a classroom 🤯 😍

You can now apply to be an organizer of WiML events (of this year):

Happy to share that our work "Frequency-Based Hyperparameter Selection in Games" has been accepted at AISTATS 2026! 🥳 I am grateful to my collaborators Baraa'h Adil and @RebekkaBurkholz, and to my supervisor @T_Chavdarova . Paper Link: lnkd.in/d23nbfCT

@CevherLIONS How come? It's not even the final version, so it could have been corrected; only the abstract deadline passed.

It is important that the community pays attention. My student just informed me that our ICML paper got desk rejected because one title was not pasted correctly among 70 citations (i.e., the author, publication, and year were correct). Need an appeal mechanism as well.

@_beenkim Crazy how sophisticated the scams are becoming: from more “believable” bait to tweets that actually sounded like you... Glad it ended well!

This scam was targeted, sophisticated, and used AI-generated content. I want to share what happened here so that no one else falls for this. 1. The scammers emailed me (bypassing my spam box) citing a recent tweet of mine with pictures (holding a NeurIPS cup) and claiming a copyright infringement investigation was underway. The human brain is gullible when we are wrongfully accused; the only thing I was thinking was how I was going to argue the case. I did not check who sent the email (it was notify@compliancereport-x.com). 2. Within minutes, the email on the account was changed, and I lost control. 3. They created a fake GitHub repo with faked commits. It turns out that on GitHub, anyone can commit anything claiming to be anyone as long as they have the email address and handles. They cited this repo, where apparently I’ve been "committing" for two weeks. 4. They struck on a Saturday morning/long weekend. They know response times for support (and your own attention span) are lower. 5. They customized all the tweets, likely with AI, to mention interpretability, Google Brain, and how it all led to founding a crypto company of my own. The tweets had a vibe that actually sounded like me. ⠀After filing a complaint with X and connecting with folks who work there, I was able to regain access in a few days. On one hand, I was relieved that the content of the tweets was so out of the ordinary that folks who know me realized my account was hacked. On the other hand, I feel terrible for those who fell for this and potentially suffered financial consequences. As a result of this, I’m considering banning myself from checking emails on my phone. The problem was partly that I was multitasking—it was a Saturday morning with the kids, and I was busy. I’ve learned my lesson the hard way. Thank you ♥️

I got my account back! Thank you, first and foremost, to everyone—friends, GDM colleagues---who personally alerted me to this incident and retweeted that I'm hacked, as well as folks at X who helped me regain access. While this incident was terrible (I heard the scammers made huge money out of this), I feel incredibly lucky to have folks who cared♥️♥️♥️ (details of how this happened 👇)

I’m very thankful to WWTF, the international jury, and the reviewers for their careful evaluation, and to my advisors, mentors, collaborators, friends, and family for their continued support! Excited to start building the group in Vienna 🇦🇹✨

The DynaFront workshop at #NeurIPS2025 started! Stop by in room 7, upper level.

Yesterday's @WiMLworkshop (#WiML) workshop at @EurIPSConf: The event was organised by @__alucic (ELLIS Member) and Stella Graßhof, along with WiML Board liaisons @giuliaclerici_ (ELLIS Unit Milan Coordinator), @T_Chavdarova and @tosiales. ℹ️ wiml.org

I’m mentoring at the #WiML workshop, if you’re at #neurips2025 stop by in room 20cd!

Looking forward to seeing you in San Diego!

@ErnestRyu Interesting perspective. What happens when LLMs reproduce or slightly modify existing lemmas/proofs without attribution? As reviewers, should we treat that as a serious issue (assuming we detect it)? From what I’ve seen, LLMs also tend to generate spurious citations when prompted

I firmly believe we are at a watershed moment in the history of mathematics. In the coming years, using LLMs for math research will become mainstream, and so will Lean formalization, made easier by LLMs. (1/4)

impressive!

I'm hiring 2 PhD students & 1 postdoc @GeorgiaTech for Fall'26 Motivated students plz consider us, especially those in * ML+Quantum * DeepLearning+Optimization -PhD: see mtao8.math.gatech.edu -Postdoc: see mathjobs.org/jobs/list/27316 & mathjobs.org/jobs/list/27343 Retweet appreciated
