If you're at #NeurIPS2025 tomorrow (Dec 3, 11:00–14:00 PST), Brown Ebouky will present our new work:
“Eliciting Reasoning in Language Models with Cognitive Tools” where we combine cognitive architectures with #agentic workflows to enhance #LLM reasoning 🧠

Check it out here: https://neurips.cc/virtual/2025/loc/san-diego/poster/119804

If OpenAI think of themselves as the Empire, who is the Rebellion?

If you ask its (few remaining) fans about Tesla having the highest rate of fatal accidents, their main excuse is that Tesla drivers misuse FSD and misunderstand safety features.
So, they'd rather blame themselves than Tesla 🤷‍♂️

Extreme polarization is now also entering the transformer-based architectures discourse 😅

"Transformers without Normalization" vs Normalizations everywhere, which team are you on?

This #DeepRL paper from University of Alberta seems quite cool:

"Deep reinforcement learning without experience replay, target networks, or batch updates"

As the title says, they succeeded in training deep RL networks in streaming setting getting rid of replay buffers.
The main tricks for that to work seem to be signal normalization and bounding the step-size 🤯
