We just implemented trai (try + AI) (github.com/binpash/trai), a Claude plugin that can help you isolate 🫷 changes done in your file system by tool calls (like pip install), and only commit them if they are intended ☺️. Try it out (pun intended) and share your feedback!

🚀 Excited to present our paper "Rethinking Probabilistic Circuit Parameter Learning" at AISTATS tomorrow! What are the key bottlenecks in optimizing 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 probabilistic models like Probabilistic Circuits? Can we design "Adam-equivalent" optimizers for these structures?

We put probabilistic circuits into diffusion language models and got a big boost in reasoning performance!

"He is from [MASK] [MASK]" → "San York"? dLLMs fail because they ignore token dependencies. This Factorization Barrier arises from a structural misspecification: models are restricted to fully factorized outputs. We break this barrier with CoDD, enabling coherent parallel generation. 🚀

What is wild to me is the defense, BY THE NEURIPS BOARD, that fabricated citations do not mean "the content of the papers themselves [is] necessarily invalidated" It does. It very much does. What do you think citing other work is for? What do you think writing a paper is for? What do you *think*?

Wish LM could plan—not just guess the next word? TRACE lets LM see all endings before each move. – Global control at inference time – Tractable lookahead via an HMM LM-proxy – Linear classifier per constraint Outperform RL, DPO, FUDGE—at just +20% decoding over base LM. #ICML2025 @guyvdb.bsky.social
