Isn't harness building, context editing and prompt search analogous to LoRA, but in a semantically meaningful subspace? It's just cheaper (no need to host the model), safer (catastrophic forgetting less likely), more interpretable (you can read now what lora would do!)

it's funny to see how mankind got advantage by fencing off a plot of land, taking it into his head to say ‘This is mine’ and now thousands of years later to advance science we need to remove the metaphorical fence, let messy nature back in to access more fruits of our land

Hear me out: an FFT is a linear convolutional encoder and decoder.

all the soap opera around NeurIPS, ICML and ICLR is a direct cause of real world forces acting on an artificial community. Having a paper can get you a job, a grant, a promotion, regardless whether the paper itself is pure garbage or seminal breakthrough.

An LLM-generated paper is in the top 17% of ICLR submissions in terms of average reviewer score, having received two 8's. The paper has tons of BS jargon and hallucinated references. Fortunately, one reviewer actually looked at the paper and gave it a zero. 1/3

the bonus bi-product would be some excellent training data for the future AI scientist agents. Same way as we learned the dark arts of ML by just reimplementing famous papers in the first year of the PhD.

Neurips R2 thought: why is the main objective for building AI scientists to accelerate new discovery while the reproducibility crisis is already crippling many fields. Maybe less ambitious but more robust and likely to be impactful work would be automating reproducibility check.

TFW for a second you thought that "test_accuracy: 99% 99/100" was the test accuracy while it was the progress bar of the loop computing the test accuracy, actually equal to 3%.

Amazing experience with the prettiest view @NeurIPSConf presenting Label Delay botcs.github.io/label-delay/ the original session was 3 hours - stayed 2h more for follow-up questions, people's interest in the topic was way above my expectations :) feeling awesome!

Call For Tasks for IOAI 2025: ML olympiad for high schoolers. I know you all have strong opinions on the ML topics future computer scientists should engage with to build mastery. This is a high-impact opportunity to help us by proposing tasks. ioai-official.org/call-for-tasks/

Teams of Hungary took 5th and 6th place in the first International Olympiad in AI taking the top 2 spots for silver 🥈. Congrats to the participants who brought a lot of self-taught expertise, adaptibility to the event continuing to build our tradition of problem solving. 🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺

@francoisfleuret Oh there's one more! in my undergrad I was fascinated with the hydrogen pumps that also act as tiny electrical engines in cellular biology, as it is a massive protein complex whose modules are highly unlikely to develop independently. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-ATPase
