Among all the high standard ethical preaching (which it's good yet benefit from micro-blog to avoid uncomfortable realities)

The one of @yoavgo.bsky.social & the exchange in that 🧵 branch was the best imho. Link to it 👇🏼🐦

AGI Test 001. Once AI rebrands "Goodharts law" & claims that it tricked all those researchers & aspiring researchers for self-development purposes.

Day 1 at #BMVC2025 featured an inspiring keynote from Prof. Philip Torr on AI for the People — a call to ensure AI empowers everyone and supports a fair society.

Excited for the week ahead of cutting-edge research! Share your conference highlights with #BMVC2025 ✨🚀

Hoping to get some kilos up, preferably not solely located in the belly 🙄🫄🏽

Btw, can anyone familiar with Dolomites can tell me the name of such "peaks"? Feel free to use AI 🤖

❓ Am I the only one curious to know the percentage of @iclr-conf.bsky.social dropouts who will go into @cvprconference.bsky.social?

Another interesting stat, the number of (preemptive) submission IDs of CVPR deleted

Have you tried disabling the alarm? I get pop-up notification as shown in screenshot. Perhaps I didn't fully understood miss 1

Re miss 2, it's mixed feelings. I remember a standup comedian making fun of that feature 😆

And yet, nature’s pre-training & self-replication 🧬 remain far ahead of any AI/ML model we’ve built.

Bio-inspired AI should lean toward hardware-aware, energy-efficient curriculum learning. Every computing device should grow its own intelligence & share it (for replication purposes)

Baby development is simply amazing. Our daughter went from quasi-blind 👁️, alert 👂, trembling, etc. to:
1. learn to control 👄, sucking 👩‍🍼🍼
2. locomotion for digesting, and hold the neck
3. sight & hear 👂
4. Short-term focus 👁️
5. locomotion for eating, rolling
...

@tkipf.bsky.social opened the discussion (🐦) about ways to go in AI development from his experience as a father 👪🧑‍🍼

Similar experience & I'd recommend anyone in AI/ML (especially those trained after the deep learning revolution) to observe & reflect on kids (or animals) early development 👶

Even bolder alternative, it's the Brookism

Intelligence doesn't need a representation. It could emerge from an embodied autonomous system, perception -> action loop

The pitch behind Visual Memex is that the animal visual (likely perception minus a standardized language framework) system is associative.

Language as ref framework (words, etc.) emerged as efficient knowledge exchange protocol. Thus, Yann's pov: "LLM is an off-ramp (shortcut IMHO) for ASI/AGI"

in the meantime, I swear that I’m not the only who have extensively talked about understanding the peer review bazaar under the lens of economic. I've spoken about it in 🐦/X as #ReviewBank
