Will AI be a "bicycle for the mind" boosting our creativity, or could it overshadow our own abilities? 🤔 📝 My latest blog explores this fascinating question! Read more here: www.niebles.net/blog/2025/cr... #AI #creativity #artificialintelligence

With AI models trained in colossal datasets, does the traditional concept of “generalization” (performing well on *unseen* data) still hold? My latest blog outlines this critical question. Join the discussion! #AI #MachineLearning #Generalization www.niebles.net/blog/2025/ga...

Always love Juan Carlos's blogs! 😍 His latest dives into how our #CVPR2025 work, ViUniT, catches sneaky bugs in visual programs using synthetic visual unit tests. Fewer lucky mistakes, better and more reliable results, and even small open models beating GPT-4o-mini. Super cool stuff 👇

There are now several benchmarks testing spatial reasoning and agent capabilities of LLMs and VLMs: - arxiv.org/abs/2410.06468 (does spatial cognition ...) - arxiv.org/abs/2307.06281 (MMBench) - arxiv.org/abs/2411.13543 (BALROG) - additional points for the LOTR ref.

The auspicious appearance of @jbhuang0604.bsky.social on Bluesky inspires me to look back at my notes on “how to get cool research ideas,” which I started jotting down way back in 2001, at the start of @belongielab.bsky.social at UC San Diego (1/18)
