but also if that's really the angle they want to take, any trivial QA agent equipped with access to wikipedia satisfies a definition of AGI.

@elliot-eu.bsky.social … can we have an ELLIOT starter pack?

Also about reviewing for #aaai: is it just me or is it painful to review without line numbering?

5,290 papers will be published at NeurIPS this year. If you could still get the proceedings in a book, it would be like 50,000 pages long. That’s 14.5 papers a day to read each and every day until the next NeurIPS

Breaking news from #AI4EO symposium: cows confirmed as extraterrestrial beings. 👽 #CowsFromSpace More information to come.

Hey you wonderful EO scientists. Why not nominate your amazing colleague or team or nominate yourself for the next ESA EO excellence award. Nominations have just opened and close 10th Dec. Research cash prize for lucky winners: www.eoxcellence.com

I know it’s not great to do things last minute, but I have to say, having read 4 papers and written their reviews, and not being able to submit them because openreview is down is really frustrating. Now the site is back but the review task is closed 🙃 #aaai #openreview

I wrote an op-ed on the world-class STEM research ecosystem in the United States, and how this ecosystem is now under attack on multiple fronts by the current administration: newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/im-an-awar...

🚀 DinoV3 just became the new go-to backbone for geoloc! It outperforms CLIP-like models (SigLip2, finetuned StreetCLIP)… and that’s shocking 🤯 Why? CLIP models have an innate advantage — they literally learn place names + images. DinoV3 doesn’t.

💥 2 MILLIONS DE SIGNATURES 💥 Vous l’avez fait ! La pétition contre la loi Duplomb vient de franchir le cap des 2 millions de signatures. Cette réaction citoyenne est inédite. Pour les pro-Duplomb, elle serait le fruit d’une «séquence de désinformation». On détricote le vrai du faux juste ici👇

Talking politics at work in 2025 is like "Now I'm not trying to get all political, but I think Hitler is bad."

@cnrsecologie.bsky.social regrette profondément l'adoption de cette loi à la vision court-termiste & ses conséquences graves sur l’environnement, qui méprise santé & bien-être de la population & le rôle des espèces sauvages dans la prod. agricole. La communauté scientifique n'a pas été entendue.

Pour les collègues francophones, vous saviez que le FID était tout cassé ? Moi non plus. Pourtant, si on s'y prend bien, on peut calculer le FID avec moins de 1000 images. J'en parlerai au GRETSI fin août : hal.science/hal-05142942 👀

If you're wondering what happened with Grok overnight, it ended up referring to itself as MechaHitler before being switched off.

Je rappelle qu'il y a actuellement une pétition sur le site de l'Assemblée Nationale demandant au gouvernement d'arrêter de faire ses communications officielles sur X. Si elle atteint 100.000 signatures, il y aura un boost de visibilité par l'AN : petitions.assemblee-nationale.fr/initiatives/...

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

The NeurIPS paper checklist corroborates the bureaucratic theory of statistics.

A lots of news recently! On May 27th, I successfully defended my PhD on satellite image time series for classification and change detection 🥳

"Des dizaines de manifestations" dans le pays, oui, plus de 200 dizaines (cf. l’article du monde). "Des milliers" marchait aussi. Sinon, @franceinfo.fr, on peut avoir accès à une information de qualité svp ? Et ne pas titrer sur la parade pour l’anniversaire du roi au passage…

A bit disappointed by the PAMI TC meeting, mostly repetitions of what’s been said at the opening, the "open discussion" slide was really just there to *exist* but no discussion/vote took place, no topic was debated. What space is left to reflect on our community and what we stand for as scientists?

I am heartbroken that I am not at the conference, but seeing what the government is doing to its people and the world, I simply couldn't go there.

Really appreciating the effort of allenai with Molmo&Pixmo to release a fully open VLM along with its training data, great work! Openness is key arxiv.org/abs/2409.17146
