First time at @ICMLConf in years. Don't know any of the invited speakers, probably less than 1% of the participants (current sample 0, but I'm still counting on variance), key take away message of the first invited talk: "embrace capitalism". Boy, have I grown old... #ICML2024

Haven't been to #ECMLPKDD for 4 years. This has gotten way too big. (Very nice location though!)

Great lecture this week, in which @rur explained how https://www.theaitre.com/ used GPT-2 to generate and stage a play as a celebration of 100 years of Rossum's Universal Robots. We had to go into OT because of the many questions by our AI firsties.
