I’m still a bit wary about the calibrated uncertainties claim. Several examples seem to show this is more marketing than actual calibration. Do you have any experience with this?

1/ Three years later... PyVBMC 1.5 is out! With A LOT of improvements, dear Bayesians. We also made a 3-min video on how it works. Come for my beautifully resonant voice (you deserve the real deal rather than an AI one), stay for all the goodies below.

I look forward to the time when the US population thinks AI tech from the US is better than that from other nations, not because it’s actually better, but solely because it’s called super “intelligence”.

Yeah, some proofs/derivations are just boring and technical without much interesting insights. Others are really insightful, really depends in my experience.

Consider that the term Artificial Intelligence was invented in the US, it’s only fair that it dies there too.

The proceedings of ICML 2026 are online, including a position paper I took part to: proceedings.mlr.press/v306/papamar... The 29 other authors did all the work 😅 but I'm still proud to share it. Also I "officially" become a co-author of so many people I like a lot, this makes me sincerely happy 😊

R1: "this is a comprehensive study [...] I recommend its acceptance" R3: "this paper provides a comprehensive analysis of an interesting topic and addresses my concerns in the rebuttal [...]" R4: "My concerns [..] have been resolved." AC: "the reviewers concerns were not sufficiently addressed"

LLMs are somehow really good at telling you stuff you already know, but in a different, convoluted way, making it look really smart. Almost like replies by users on Reddit. …wait 🧐

I answered a friend's question about how AI systems might enact control over humans, and why it is important to discuss AI risk. People in the AI industry are becoming more and more scared, so I figured it was worth putting some thoughts down.
