Sometimes, it's so hard to recover after getting your grants rejected. It looks like the agencies are looking for reasons to reject rather than reasons to fund. The sheer number of rejections we receive is not good for our mental health!
#ICML2026 authors, if you can flatten the curve on @arxiv.bsky.social submissions, the cs.LG moderators would really appreciate it. Today we have 4 times the usually number of submissions. Please select a random number between 1 and 14 and wait that number of days to submit! :-) #mlsky
The author points out the common behavior: these people always mention the other people that they know. Membership in these elite circles is entirely based on who else you know rather than on any particular merit. Everyone is insecure and seeks constant reassurance that they still belong
Absolutely! There's something pure about Pacific NW
They need everything to be submitted only to have a template reject!
Very therapeutic! I get many ideas doing this.
i honestly just don't believe this. maybe the market wasn't what it once was, but how much is that just cost cutting and AI hype? as amazing as coding assistants and agents are, you still need a person who knows how to code to do most things.

As AI agents face increasingly long and complex tasks, decomposing them into subtasks becomes increasingly appealing.
But how do we discover such temporal structure?
Hierarchical RL provides a natural formalism-yet many questions remain open.
Here's our overview of the field🧵
Each of these capabilities exceeds human performance, and that is exactly the point. People are not good at these tasks, and this is why we need computational help.
We should be evaluating AI systems for these kinds of capabilities rather than given them IQ tests. Building AGI is a distraction end/
I think we should be building systems that complement people; systems that do well the things that people do poorly; systems that make individuals and organizations more effective and more humane. 3/

We're delighted to launch our series meeting the 2025 AAAI Fellows. In the first interview, we spoke to @nsriraam.bsky.social about his career path, research on human-allied AI, reflections on changes to the AI landscape, and passion for cricket. #AAAI2025
Thanks. Will check this out!
Hi friends, am looking to read up on optimal transport! Any suggestions on a comprehensive survey for me to get started? Thanks!
We are hiring for PhD positions! I’m looking for people interested in exploring the intersection of learning and reasoning with applications to anomaly detection and sports. @dtai-kuleuven.bsky.social @wannesm.bsky.social

Humbled and honored to be elected as a AAAI fellow along with my good friend @ravib-iitm.bsky.social ! Congrats to all the fellows!
What do you mean by ready to start? Are we supposed to start now? I thought we were supposed to do that after that previous round of rejects ;)
Thanks for the shout-out to our work Alan!
Joint work with @kerstingaiml.bsky.social, Sahil, Saurabh and Wolfgang!
When building human allied AI systems, it is imperative to think of who is in control. In our blue sky paper at #AAAI, we argue that a deeper understanding of whether human is in the loop or if AI is in the loop is essential! arxiv.org/pdf/2412.14232
Our work on a unified framework for learning PCs will appear in #AAAI our awesome trio of Athresh, Sahil and Saurabh have worked on this really awesome work. We can learn with varied types of rich domain knowledge! arxiv.org/pdf/2405.02413 we have applied this on real adverse pregnancy outcomes data
Unpopular opinion -- while it's is more gratifying to be a PC than a SPC, I believe it is also easier to do it. I had to only review papers (about 10 of them) but I do not have to chase down adults who behave like children. Life is much easier in review lane. Might just do this from now on!
We are pleased to announce the latest version of AIPython.org: open-source, runnable pseudocode (in Python) for all your favorite AI algorithms, including search, CSPs, logic, planning, supervised machine learning, neural network, graphical models, unsupervised learning, causality, /2
We are the premier conference on #uncertainty in #AI and #ML since 1985 🧓
Hello, 🦋!
Follow us to reduce uncertainty!
The 41st Conference on #Uncertainty in #AI will be held in Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷, July 21-25!
The CfP is out 👉 www.auai.org/uai2025/call...
🚨 Feb 10: Paper submission
🗣️ Apr 3-10: rebuttal period
🎉/💀 May 6: Author notification
#UAI2025 #ML #stats #learning #reasoning #uncertainty
There should be a limit to the size of an ICLR rebuttal. The 1 page CVPR/ICCV style rebuttals are a bit harsh, but they are the better solution. There should be a burden to the authors to be concise, it removes the burden on reviewers/AC to sift through pages and pages on uncontrolled writing.
Mine is only at 9
An important Thanksgiving tradition for me is to write recommendation letters for graduate students. Always thankful to know so many bright minds who are eager to make a difference in research. Truly the best part of our job!
Percy Jackson is nice!
Thrilled to join the Senate Strategic Committee (SAS) of the Leibniz Association @LeibnizWGL 🎉 advising on new institutes, strategic expansions & fostering collaboration. Excited to work with amazing experts across disciplines, driving innovation and impact! 🌟
