While helping my gen-alpha with his math homework, I still don’t get why he giggles every time the answer is 6–7.

Kids these days 🤷‍♂️

#KostasThoughts: Please stop using AI tools to write reviews. I want your authentic thoughts, even if they contain spelling, grammar, & factual mistakes. An LLM should not influence your judgment. The purpose of multiple reviewers is to provide diverse views and error checking.

All the slop review drama unfolding at ICLR is painful to watch. But having so many eyes on it puts us in a better point to find solutions. This would have taken longer to be exposed on a closed platform where we may have had a few screenshots and a few author stories at best.

Shedding the extra weight has given me so much more energy … and a large clothing bill 😅 Hope you all take the time to look after yourselves.

Post-meal walks for the win, or better yet for the loss 😉

An LLM generated paper has been submitted multiple times and one of the submissions has 2x rating "8" and fortunately a 0. It was desk-rejected from ICLR.

More info is available and searchable but I don't want to shame the authors publicly. But yes, this is very wrong! Also having multiple 8s !!

Now 5 hours, 41 minutes and 15 seconds left 🥱
Still 8 hours, 16 minutes and 5 seconds left to complete your #CVPR2026 submissions. Plenty of time 💪 Good luck!

Update on #CVPR2026 full paper & compute form submission issue:

We would like to inform authors that the OR submission system requires the submission of a compute reporting form along with any updates to the full paper. We have identified this as a system-related issue.

A few folks at ICRA last week were asking about the details of my probabilistic deep learning course so I through together a public syllabus for it: docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Probabilistic Deep Learning - Public Overview - Tucker Hermans - Kahlert School of Computing; University of Utah
Probabilistic Deep Learning This class covers probabilistic approaches to deep learning. These include model calibration, mixture density networks, (approximate) Bayesian neural networks, variational ...

Lost 38 pounds in a couple of months 💪Focused on nutrition and walking 15k steps a day. Ironically, I’m following a 🇬🇷Mediterranean diet 😉

Best I’ve felt in years, health-wise all good.
