Congratulations to everyone who got their @neuripsconf.bsky.social papers accepted 🎉🎉🎉 At #EurIPS we are looking forward to welcoming presentations of all accepted NeurIPS papers, including a new “Salon des Refusés” track for papers which were rejected due to space constraints!

Some fun news: We're hiring! Lectureship (analogous to Assistant Prof.) in Statistical Science and AI, in the School of Mathematics, University of Bristol. Closing date 13 October 2025; link below! www.bristol.ac.uk/jobs/find/de...

uv is now stable enough that I'm switching my course over to using it. No more conda, we will create a generation of uv evangelicals

how much did google pay to slip an entire magazine of corporate propaganda into this weekend's @irishtimes.com newspaper disguised as public communication about AI

Germany and its trains 🚂, a never ending horror story. Reminder to myself, don’t take trains in Germany… 😬

The first talk of the season will be this coming Tuesday (23 September), given by Alexandre Bouchard-Côté from UBC. Alex is a great speaker, so do join if you have the chance! See sites.google.com/view/monte-c... for details, links, and so on.

Dear GPTZero is the meta review AI generated? 99% AI generated 1% Mixed 0% Human 😔

Unfortunately, our submission to #NeurIPS didn’t go through with (5,4,4,3). But because I think it’s an excellent paper, I decided to share it anyway. We show how to efficiently apply Bayesian learning in VLMs, improve calibration, and do active learning. Cool stuff! 📝 arxiv.org/abs/2412.06014

Discovered that our RangeViT paper keeps being cited in what might be LLM-generated papers. Number of citations increased rapidly in the last weeks. Too good to be true. Papers popped up on different platforms, but mainly on ResearchGate with ~80 papers in just 3 weeks. [1/]

If you're interested in human pose estimation and mesh recovery from LiDAR data, we have this massive survey: arxiv.org/abs/2509.12197 Salma and Nermin put a tremendous amount of work in it, there's everything: the tasks, all the methods organized, datasets, numbers, challenges and opportunities.

If you're an undergrad and want to intern with me, this is where you need to apply!

Our paper on “Fixing Overconfidence in Dynamic Neural Networks” got plagiarised! Apparently the authors did the same thing with other papers before. Our paper: arxiv.org/abs/2302.06359 Plagiarised version: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The Journal-to-Conference track is back at AISTATS🌴! The track invites authors of papers published or accepted after January 1st, 2024 in AoS, Biometrika, JASA, JMLR and JRSS B to present their work as posters at #AISTATS2026 in Tangier, Morocco (May 2nd-5th 2026). 📅 Deadline: 31 January 2026

Seeking citations: Has anyone written on how "AI" systems can be used to shift/shirk accountability? This seems like an obvious through line in a lot of use cases (esp decision making by govt agencies & military applications), but I'd love to see a treatment tying these together.

We held the Bayes-Duality workshop in June 2025. The videos are now available here. https://bayesduality.github.io/talks_2025.html I also wrote a paper and gave a talk recently on Posterior Correction which is the accumulation of 5-6 years of work. Here are […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Can self supervised learning help understand how the brain learns to see the world? Our latest study, led by Josephine Raugel (FAIR, ENS), is now out: 📄 arxiv.org/pdf/2508.18226 🧵 thread below

here’s a version where the POV is blacked out whenever the driver takes their eyes off the road

Swimming in foggy water with friends, what else could one wish for. 🤩

🚨AISTATS workshop proposals open! Big News: For the first time, there will be a day of workshops at #AISTATS 2026, in Tangier, Morocco 🌴🇲🇦 Quentin Berthet @qberthet.bsky.social and I are workshop chairs. virtual.aistats.org/Conferences/... Deadline: Oct 17, AOE

Let's push for the obvious solution: Dear @neuripsconf.bsky.social ! Allow authors to present accepted papers at EurIPS instead of NeurIPS rather than just additionally. Likely, at least 500 papers would move to Copenhagen, problem solved.

NeurIPS has decided to do what ICLR did: As a SAC I received the message 👇 This is wrong! If the review process cannot handle so many papers, the conference needs yo split instead of arbitrarily rejecting 400 papers.

Here's a whole wikipedia page about it: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of... Hasn't hurt them one bit. I call it a lie because there's just no way he could have believed these predictions

Is anyone cross-posting on both Bsky and Mastodon? Is it worth the effort? If so, are there tools you would recommend?

There is now less 24 hours left until the #EurIPS Affinity Workshop and Workshop deadlines. Brew an extra cup of coffee, call your friends & colleagues, and put the finalizing touches on your proposals! Aff. Workshops: eurips.cc/call-for-aff... Workshops: eurips.cc/call-for-wor...

Considering how “warm” I feel now, this was probably the last swim of the year. But what a beautiful swim. 🤩

AISTATS CfP is out, and this year @qberthet.bsky.social and I are the first Workshop chairs! Call for Workshops to come very soon, but in short: aistats will have one more day dedicated to contributed workshops. Prepare your submissions!

We are excited to bring #EurIPS 2025 to Copenhagen in December. Consider becoming a sponsor and support us in making this inaugural event a success! Sponsorship packages are available and can be further customized if necessary. Reach out if you have any questions ❔ Info: eurips.cc/become-spons...

New blog post: AI Allergy. On my increasing disgust with the AI discourse, even though I still like the technical and philosophical. And how I wish I could be excited about AI again. togelius.blogspot.com/2025/08/ai-a...

AISTATS call for papers is out and will be located in Morocco 🇲🇦. Looking forward to this!

Why #NeurIPS PC? Why? We already have days of reading to do including reviews, responses, responses to responses and confidential comments to AC. Do you really think a "Final Remark" that tells me to accept the paper will help? Let me just do my AC job during august while everyone is on vacation!

Thank you! Somebody (@gracekind.net ) has finally found the perfect way to answer these "its just matrix multiplication" takes. Also, the take "there is nothing new with deep learning, neural nets were around 50y ago" is like "nothing new with humans, amino acides were around 4.4 billion y ago".

You are looking for grumpy reviewers commenting angrily on your paper because they are annoyed by the reviewing process. NeurIPS got you covered.

Reviewing for NeurIPS this year feels a bit like being a beta tester.

The world is a beautiful and fragile place that we are allowed to enjoy temporarily and should feel responsible for. It’s regrettable that we (the ML community) don’t manage to have decentralised conferences across the globe (look at you, @neuripsconf.bsky.social). Let's be better together!

This is too good. 🤣 youtu.be/JeNS1ZNHQs8?...

My maternity leave project is now somewhat out: I made a jupyterbook about the basics of ML, that I teach at TUE. You can check it out here: sibylse.github.io/TUEML/intro.... The linA part is not yet formulated out and there are other todos, but maybe it helps someone with their own course design 😅

A great start to TPM 2025! @auai.org #UAI2025 #TPM

time for our mentoring session! where young researchers can ask more experienced ones about how to navigate academia, conferences, work in industry and more! Moderated by Eli Carrami and Isabela Albuquerque (virtual) Panel: @cassiodecampos.bsky.social @sabinasloman.bsky.social Yingzhen Li

Remember that computers use bitstrings to represent numbers? We exploit this in our recent @auai.org paper and introduce #BitVI. #BitVI directly learns an approximation in the space of bitstring representations, thus, capturing complex distributions under varying numerical precision regimes.

Es gibt weltweit rund 20.000 Klimaforscher:innen. Und manche Leute glauben tatsächlich, die seien allesamt dumm oder korrupt, während nur einige wenige in Diensten der fossilen Energiewirtschaft die Wahrheit erzählen. 🙄

What if AI isn’t about building solo geniuses, but designing social systems? Michael Jordan advocates blending ML, economics, and uncertainty management to prioritize social welfare over mere prediction. A must-read rethink. arxiv.org/abs/2507.062...

The world is a beautiful place! It saddens me that politicians around the world do not aim to protect the beauty we can participate in, but are driven by other irrelevant motives.

Life could be worse.

Was Merz heute zum Klimaschutz sagte, schießt den Vogel ab. Deutschland rangiert historisch unter den größten CO2-Emittenten weltweit - auf Platz 3. Wenn ausgerechnet der Kanzler eines der reichsten Länder der Welt sagt, das sollen mal andere machen, dann bedeutet das: Der Klimaschutz ist am Ende.

One of my NeurIPS reviews got an *insufficient review flag* with the comment that it is 🥁 sufficient. What’s going on guys.

"in 2025 we will have flying cars" 😂😂😂
