Great honor to be giving a keynote in the next DAGM!

Stay tuned for my next grand vision on 'Cyberphysical AI' towards Robot General Intelligence.

Robot learning algorithms that are literally aware of and can interact with the physical world, its physics, and dynamics, critical for System II AI.

🎉 I am thrilled to share that our team has achieved a tremendous milestone with FOUR papers accepted to #ICLR2025! Huge congratulations to all the amazing students and collaborators. Details per papers in separate messages. Looking forward to an exciting conference in Singapore! 🛫🇸🇬 #AI #ML

I ve been thinking questions on
- world models
- physics & causality
- System I & System II reasoning

1. Why NNs can't model physics and causal mechanisms easily?
2. Why world models can't model physics and causality easily?
3. Why System II is not working yet?

I got some ideas, but your thoughts?

Job alert! 🚨 (a bit special but anyway)

If you are (or know someone who is) a Phd about to graduate or just graduated, and have to skip some in between time, I currently have a PostDoc position that could run for 6 months.

Needed: Experience with publishing at Top A conferences.
Just ping me. 👍

So, how do I use this thing :P

Do I lose all my followers on Twitter?

And also, I am just curious, how often do you use Twitter/Bsky? It seems to me that everyone uses it but my whole day is so full that I barely have time to browse every now and then.
