Thank you to the United States National Science Foundation (@NSF) for believing in the research we are pioneering @Vertaix_: a new paradigm for #AI centered on discovery.

Current AI runs into a problem I'll call 'mode collapse' which prevents it from genuine scientific discovery. My group will continue to work on a new AI paradigm called "Investigative Intelligence" that will enable novel discoveries by mitigating mode collapse. This work is based on the work we've been doing around diversity, which I believe to be the right primitive for discovery.

This award would not have been possible without the amazing grad students, postdocs, and collaborators I have had the chance to work with. Thank you all🧡 #VendiScore #AI #II #Discovery #Science

Incredible work by @BediSuhana42170 and team on HealthAdminBench. Benchmarks that only measure steps will miss end-to-end performance. Great example of what it looks like to actually design for deployment conditions. https://t.co/AffPY3HLfN, Code: https://t.co/DiCuvn1YtL

[Yuexing Hao @YuexingHao]

Hey world! I am looking for a Research Scientist (L4) team match at @GoogleDeepMind and @Google 🚀

I build things with RLHF, Model Evaluation, and Computer Using Agents — from agentic pipelines to RL systems.

If you're recruiting, let's talk! My DM is OPEN

Major release from our group today: “End-to-End Test-Time Training” (TTT-E2E). We show that continual learning enables strong long context performance without changing the underlying architecture!

[Princeton University @Princeton]

Princeton researchers have developed a new tool to speed the discovery of advanced materials known as metal organic frameworks potentially leading to better battery chemistry, more efficient carbon capture and improved access to clean water. https://t.co/GuC20wvJNt
