1 for effect. 4 sounds more like a course title. Both would allow to include loads of different, interesting stuff!

Congrats, Yoshua!

I presented @nathanckim.bsky.social and my "How Big Cloud gets Bigger" paper analyzing crunchbase to show how:

*Google/Microsoft/Amazon invest at rates rivaling the largest VCs.*

Big Cloud = Critical Infrastructure *AND* Venture Capital.

here are the slides:

Genius!

Exxon funded thinktanks to spread climate denial in Latin America, documents reveal Texas-based fossil fuel company financed Atlas Network in attempt to derail UN-led climate treaty process

Big Oil has a long history of interference in Latin America.

Documents reveal that "Exxon funded rightwing thinktanks to spread climate change denial," invest in "market-oriented public policies" and ensure "continued strong returns to Exxon’s investors.” 😑

EU plans to water down ban on new petrol and diesel cars Commission proposes cutting obligation for 100% zero emission vehicles beyond 2035 to 90% after pressure from industry and some EU states

The EU drops its plan to phase out combustion engine cars by 2035 because of lobbying by both the car industry and Germany and Italy.

Not only do these measures always come too late, but also they are eventually dropped because of billionaires' influence. 😫

LeMat-GenBench: A Unified Evaluation Framework for Crystal Generative Models Generative machine learning (ML) models hold great promise for accelerating materials discovery through the inverse design of inorganic crystals, enabling an unprecedented exploration of chemical spac...

Happy to have contributed to and now finally share LeMat-GenBench, a new open benchmark + leaderboard for generative crystalline materials models! ⚛️✨

It provides standardised metrics for validity, stability, & much more. Already includes results for 12 models!

A room at Mila filled with students attending a panel discussion with three professors, inspired by Growing up in Science.

Since @neuripsconf.bsky.social and co. keep organising conferences in states that don't let most of our students in and many try to reduce air travel, at @mila-quebec.bsky.social we keep organising alternative events for those who stay home.

This was a session inspired by Growing up in Science!

Very interesting and relevant work! Congrats!

1/4 Psyched to have our paper, 'Irresponsible AI: big tech's influence on AI research and associated impacts', at the Algorithmic Collective Action NeurIPS workshop today! This was a collaboration with @alexhergar.bsky.social, Alexandra Volokhova, and @dounia-kabakibo.bsky.social. Details below...

Thrilled to have contributed to "Irresponsible AI: big tech’s influence on AI research and associated impacts."
My first project outside physics— learned a lot! Check out our paper on ArXiv or Ezekiel’s post for an overview and visit our poster today at 11:15 am PT if you’re at NeurIPS in San Diego!

Yeah I agree

Not that I love it, but I've already switched to using semantic scholar more than google.

I need everyone, esp anyone working in education or tech (but really everyone) to WATCH THIS CLIP of @drtanksley.bsky.social discussing the technologies infiltrating our schools & psyches and how she is addressing it with our young people. youtu.be/5mtcSL4S3HQ

I'd like to hire one or two graduate students for the autumn 2026 term.

I'm particularly eager to find students interested in working on active learning / Bayesian optimisation with generative models for scientific discovery applications.
