Our lightweight adversarial fine-tuning attack lets you bend a feature to visualize any arbitrary concept. Off-manifold, we impose a hyperbolic activation landscape with its optimum at the target, while preserving on-distribution activations through a weighted two-term loss. 🕵️♀️

Our intro programming course numbers – not unique. The disturbing part? By Week 4, students know they can’t program. Four months later: still can’t. Nothing changed.

Today, Erik presents a novel attack on Google's latest AI weather model at #CCS2025. By changing only 0.1% of the observations, the attack can fabricate or suppress the prediction of extreme events, from hurricanes 🌀 to heat waves 🔥
