This is a friendly reminder that there are 7 days left for submitting your extended abstract to this workshop! (Since the workshop is non-archival, previously published work is welcome too. So consider submitting previous/future work to join the discussion in Amsterdam!)

Like Pythia, but 1234 isn't your favorite random seed? We retrained Pythia 9x using different random seeds to explore how stable analyses of learning dynamics are to randomness. Meet Pietro Lesci @blancheminerva Fri 1500-1730 Hall 3 + Hall 2B #259 x.com/pietro_lesci/s…
