A gorgeous day UW–Madison

Meredith claps back with receipts 🤣

Happy to see several of my old NYU colleagues being recognized 👇

Happy to share that this work (w/ Yaron Lipman) was awarded an Outstanding Paper Honorable Mention at ICLR 2024.
Come see me talk about 'Flow Matching on General Geometries' tomorrow in the afternoon orals session!

ChemCrow is out today in Nature Machine Intelligence! ChemCrow is an agent that uses chem tools and a cloud-based robotic lab for open-ended chem tasks. It’s been a journey to get to publication and I’d like to share some history about it. It started back in 2022. 1/8

I’m excited to work with Dorota to further the research enterprise UW–Madison. I was impressed with her attitudes around interdisciplinary research, which is key for datascience@uw

Thank you Yisong and the Award Committee for choosing the VAE for the Test of Time award. I like to congratulate Durk who was my first (brilliant) student when moving back to the Netherlands and who is the main architect of the VAE. It was absolutely fantastic working with him.

Happy to present our research on AI for Ag at the CloudForum at Stanford University today. Thank you Internet2 UW-Madison Division of Information Technology datascience@uw for the opportunity and support!

Thrilled to be featured in Symmetry Magazine’s series on AI! symmetrymagazine.org/article/a-phys… I’ve been talking/researching/writing about the intersections of AI ethics and physics for almost 5 years, and I’m so excited these conversations are growing.

Any time I see a thread on category theory it might as well be free jazz.

Congratulations to Rose Yu Rose Yu , so very well deserved!

My United Airlines flight to Madison had maintenance issues, so they found us a new plane leaving from the opposite side of O’Hare. #GettingMySteps

# CUDA/C++ origins of Deep Learning

Fun fact many people might have heard about the ImageNet / AlexNet moment of 2012, and the deep learning revolution it started.

What's maybe a bit less known is that the code backing this winning submission to the…

HISTORY OF PHYSICS

The history of the Renormalization Group

(thanks to Bahram Shakerin by inadvertently giving me this idea)

In the years between 1952-1953 Ernst Stueckelberg and André Petermann discovered a group of infinitesimal transformations related

1/N Scale is not all you need: Real data might help you. Synthetic data will eventually kill you!

Our paper 'Tail of Tales: Model Collapse as a Change of Scaling Laws' has been accepted at #ICML2024 arxiv.org/abs/2402.07043

Joint work with Yunzhen Feng (@nyuniversity),…

This was a fun talk to give. The conference was great. Happy to see such a strong effort in Europe related to AI for fundamental physics.

This was an amazing talk! 👇
Slides (video?) should go up here

This makes me happy! I admire the work and the people so much. It was a milestone moment and marked a paradigm shift in the relationship between AI/Ml and stats. I remember the 2016 tutorial at NeurIPS where I first met Rajesh. 🎉

Congrats to PsiQuantum, who just received more than $600 million in new funding. They'll be establishing a major presence in (my hometown!) Brisbane

They've been making some really nice progress on photonic quantum computing: arxiv.org/abs/2404.17570

Latex templates are like sourdough starter.

You've been copy pasting a template from an old doc on your overleaf for years. You got it from a collaborator who got theirs from some other collaborator, and legends will say that an ancestral collaborator got it from Donald Knuth.
