🚨 Headed to ICML 2026? Come hang out with friends at a Michelin Star restaurant to celebrate the end of the main conference!! Huge thanks to our friends at @Gen_Intuition for co-hosting this with us!

Looking forward to seeing everyone at @ElorianAI's rooftop dinner in Seoul at ICML this evening co-hosted with @RicursiveAI, @strikervp and @DeltaInstitutes. Sign-up if you haven't already!

@jxmnop Congrats, Jack!!

my paper won an award at icml 😁 some thoughts: • this work was rejected from NeurIPS. i cleaned it up a small amount and it got great reviews from ICML! don't give up • ICML received 24k submissions and only gives out 7 awards, which is crazy. feeling grateful • i distinctly remember sitting at my desk two winters ago wondering if i would ever finish this project. most of all this is the product of sitting down and forcing myself to keep working for several months straight. the results emerged from running the experiments over and over and fixing a long sequence of tiny details. eventually, the curves looked like that 👇 • also happy that the insights in this paper are becoming more widely accepted: 3.3 bits/param, thinking about capacity "LLM as flashdrive" mentality • the method here is used successfully for selecting midtraining data at least one frontier lab, which is cool! • i am grateful to my collaborators, but Meta is no longer a great place for academic research imo and this almost never got published for a number of reasons. i shall not elaborate further • for future work, i think analyzing the implications of on-policy algorithms on capacity, as well as LoRA and things like it, are fruitful potential research directions • sadly i'm not in Korea but am following the conference online from california and happy to chat! a nice end to one phase of my research career :)

@LedermanHarvey Congrats, Harvey!!

I've joined @AnthropicAI to work on alignment and character. I'll still teach at @nyuniversity; I'm on leave from @UTAustin.

Come hang out with us!

ICML week in Seoul!! 🇰🇷🇰🇷 We are hosting a rooftop dinner with @ElorianAI and @RicursiveAI. Amazing food, cool views, and great people. Come hang out! Thanks @DeltaInstitutes for co-hosting with @strikervp.

Join the team for a Korean lunch in Seoul this Friday. ICML 2026.

FEAST with the @gen_intuition and @DeltaInstitutes gang 🤝

Coming to ICML and interested in the next gen multimodal models? Come hang out with @ElorianAI at ICML!

@michaelpsenka @ask1729 @akanazawa @pabbeel @ylecun Congrats, Michael!!

update thread! 🧵 In May I defended my PhD thesis, titled “Variational Approaches to Path Problems in Deep Learning”. I could not be more grateful for my advisor @ask1729 , my committee @akanazawa, @pabbeel, and @ylecun, and all of my other mentors, collaborators, and friends along the way. Thank you all for making this such an enriching PhD.

@VictoriaLinML Thanks for doing this, Victoria!!

The video of my Stanford CS25 guest lecture, From Language Models to Native Multimodal Intelligence, is now online. I discussed how the core ideas behind LLMs has shaped multimodal AI, from architectures to training paradigms and scaling, and where the next challenges may lie. 🧠🌐 🎥: youtube.com/watch?v=NDdc39…
