Spain doing the right thing this time

Had it few times in recent weeks 😆

Another nice work from Salma, this time on the training of classifiers for #hyperspectral images under limited data conditions.

Congrats Salma, well deserved.
Thanks for all your efforts and positive energy.
Lots of success on your future endeavors.

The style/design of the poster did look familiar 👍

I’m excited to present SimpleStories at EurIPS!

Also if anyone at #EurIPS is interested in chatting about LLM data efficiency, interpretability, model inconsistency or other topics feel free to DM me.

Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors “With fewer visits to Wikipedia, fewer volunteers may grow and enrich the content, and fewer individual donors may support this work.”

“Any house is stronger if the foundation is done well.”

Conny Aerts, ERC Member, spoke about daring science and ERC at #POLITICOCompetitiveSummit.

”We need a broad pool of fundamental science.”
”It’s the foundation of the house of #innovation”.
