2. Of course we should hold AI to the highest standards. That doesn't imply double standards because we can treat AI as technology without anthropomorphizing it and we primarily conceptualize science as a human endeavor. The two can be subjected to different standards. It's normal, not at all weird.

Patty Delafuente & Arya Honraopatil's paper "Does Reasoning Help LLM Agents Play Dungeons and Dragons? A Prompt Engineering Experiment" looks at using reasoning models like DeepSeek for generating actions of D&D players based on game state. Turns out this isn't something models can reason about!

As a South American, I agree. Also, I understand that this was probably organised before the name change decision. Btw, the name change also tries to include countries from the caribbean☺️ In Spanish we use the word "America" to refer to a single continent, subdivided in regions (North, South, etc)☺️

Inspired by @wimlds.bsky.social , I looked for a "Women in Machine Learning" starter pack and couldn't find one. So I created one! May have some mistakes. I'll try to do an AI ethics one next. 🤗 go.bsky.app/LT6CwNN

AI hype is making AI researchers forget painfully learned lessons core to the field. There's an emerging cope that progress in capabilities isn't slowing down—it's just invisible as benchmarks are saturated; vibe checks are useless because models are now superhuman so we can't perceive improvement.

Today I presented my MSc. work "Exploring approaches to Improvisational Interactive Storytelling" in the student seminar. I narrated a basic setting and used a dice to explain the gamemastering mechanisms to the committee ☺️ OK, now I have to write my thesis! 😅

Distinguir Montevideanos y Porteños, sí, es difícil (soy de MVD). Pero Uruguay también es rico lingüísticamente. Por ejemplo, en el este hay mucha gente que habla con tuteo (no vosea), y existe una mezcla progresiva de tuteo y voseo en ciudades aledañas (ej: Maldonado)

Un placer. Creo que nuestra primera vuelta es algo injusta, y la de ustedes tiene más sentido. Acá podría haber pasado que el Frente Amplio tuviera la mayoría en el senado (16 en 30), pero perdiera el ballotage. ¿Ahí también podría pasar algo así?

Santi🎲Góngora @sgongora.bsky.social · 25/11/2024
Hermanos argentos, tengan en cuenta que acá se va al ballotage si ninguno consigue superar el 50% de los votos. En otras configuraciones de primera vuelta, como la de ustedes, el frente amplio ganaba de una (44% y ventaja de 17% sobre el segundo)

Lamentablemente no tengo mucha más información sobre mi bisabuelo. En el caso de mi esposa, sus bisabuelos eran de Santiago y sí pudimos ir a la casa donde vivían (hoy, un hostal). Triste, pero hay muchas historias que se perdieron. Por supuesto que la próxima vez que vaya a Gz, reunámosnos 🤗

Ya con respecto a la lengua, en mi familia se perdió. Yo soy el primer galegofalante desde la línea de mi bisabuelo (es decir, su herman@s, primos, etc). Mi esfuerzo fue totalmente autodidacta junto a la ayuda de otros galegos online 😊

Hola 😊 En Uruguay hay mucha gente que desciende de Españoles y/o Italianos. Ese es mi caso, donde mi bisabuelo vivía en Caión y vino a Uruguay alrededor de 1930. En mi familia quedó la costumbre de ver la TVG y un día ví el ascenso del 2012 del celta en las noticias y, a partir de ahí, sempre celta🩵

I don't know if this is a reason to have "multi-X" (just a name?), but this is indeed a case in which every character can have a different state of the world. e.g. if the interactive storytelling system models POVs about the world state,like A thinking you stole the apple and B knowing you bought it

Santi🎲Góngora @sgongora.bsky.social · 23/11/2024
Hi Yoav. I don't really use the "agent"-related terms, but I work on interactive storytelling and I guess that this "multi-X" perspective can be easier to visualize thinking about different characters. Each character knows, sees and thinks different things + probably they are not in the same place

It’s unlikely there are hundreds of people asking how to implement breadth-first search for legitimate reasons. Even more unlikely that hundreds of people suddenly want to know this in early September and late January and no other time of the year.

Also, they are moving here because Musk made twitter bad, not by forcing people to read tweets they disagree with, but by allowing users to game the algorithm to flood replies with garbage tweets, and by essentially removing the block function

10. Posters are often better than orals. I personally only watch oral talks online rather than sitting through the sessions. In my experience posters are a much better use of time.

Six years ago, Georgios Yannakakis and I published a textbook on AI and Games. It has been used in universities across the world and become a standard reference for the field. Much has happened since, and it is about time for a second edition. Good news: we just put a draft online!

In the political context of calls for "Mass Deportation Now" by the Republican Party at its national convention, we thought it was important for us to witness what had happened when the state's power is turned against its people. We had previously seen memorials in Uruguay, which had similar events
A stylized graphic of a flower missing two petals with text that translates as "Where are they?"A large mural with two hands holding a similar flower and words that translate as "Care for the memory."Windows in the front of the Uruguayan University of the Republic's Social Sciences building. The windows are full of black and white photos of people who were "disappeared" in various South American right-wing dictatorships.Close-up of the previous image showing that one photo of a woman has a handwritten sign that translates as "Found! They know where they are!"
