Ein Satz, der noch nie über die Lippen eines Kanzlers oder einer Kanzlerin gekommen ist: "Ich störe mich an Neonazis im #Stadtbild. Ich störe mich an der Rückkehr der Hitlerscheitel, den Uniformen, den Hakenkreuzen und Sig-Runen auf Stromkästen und Häuserwänden."

Folks have been telling me they’ve noticed I’ve gotten “a lot more political” on social media this year.

Of course I have.

The circumstances have gotten nightmarishly worse, and the consequences of inaction and staying silent infinitely more obvious.

Everyone needs to get “a lot more political.”

We start the second day of CPAIOR 2025 with an invited talk shared with ICAPS. Hanna Kurniawati talks about how the uncertainty of the real-world makes decision-making for robots challenging, and what strategies can be used to tackle it.

We invented a new algorithm analysis framework to find out.

Ich werde nie begreifen, warum so viele Deutsche den Sozialstaat als Feind betrachten. Er ist die unvollkommene, aber größte Errungenschaft dieses Landes, indem er Not lindert und Gerechtigkeit und sozialen Frieden fördert. Wir brauchen mehr davon, nicht weniger.
