Superposition as Lossy Compression — Measure with Sparse Autoencoders and Connect to Adversarial ... Leonard Bereska, Zoe Tzifa-Kratira, Reza Samavi, Stratis Gavves. Action editor: Pin-Yu Chen. openreview.net/forum?id=qaNP… #autoencoder #superposition #ne

VLMs (GPT-4o, Gemini, Qwen-VL, LLaVA…) look impressive — until you shift an image by 1 pixel. A tiny, meaning-preserving change → a completely different answer. This isn’t adversarial — it’s natural variation. Watch 👇

Check out the amazing @let4all Mentorship Workshop happening in just two weeks! Theme: Harnessing AI for Research, Learning, and Communicating Featuring an amazing lineup of speakers and also hands-on experience with ChatGPT Pro to see how to use AI to help your research.

Congratulations to my PhD student Hirad Daneshvar for successfully defending his thesis on "Trustworthy Graph Neural Networks for Healthcare Predictive Modelling." Bravo Dr. @Hirad_Daneshvar ! @FEAStorontometu @TMU_ecbe @VectorInst

How can a robot traverse crowds of people? Checkout this press release about our crowd navigating robot. tum.de/en/news-and-events/al…

Jack, a wheeled #robot from our university, navigates crowds by predicting people’s paths and adjusting 10 times per second. Rather than stopping, it adapts smoothly to avoid collisions: go.tum.de/528400 #RoboticsInstituteGermany #AutonomousVehicles #AI 📷A. Eckert

i like both AI and end-to-end encryption. can i have them all? we examine this question carefully in <How To Think About End-To-End Encryption and AI: Training, Processing, Disclosure, and Consent> by Knodel, Fabrega, Ferrari, Leiken, Hou, Yen, de Alfaro, Cho and Sunoo Park.
