I think he means mathematics :)

My brilliant student Anay Mehrotra and amazing post-doc Alkis Kalavasis just won the Best Paper Award at COLT 2025! Clearly, they’ve cracked the code: do great math, write a killer paper, take home the trophy. Huge congratulations to both of them. Now please don’t forget your

On Monday, I'll be presenting a tutorial on jailbreaking LLMs + the security of AI agents with Hamed Hassani and Amin Karbasi at ICML. I'll be in Vancouver all week -- send me a DM if you'd like to chat about jailbreaking, AI agents, robots, distillation, or anything else!

Ran into my younger self at ICML Conference. He looks way more rested.

Wildly impressive. Humanity’s greatest mental exercise, mathematics, is being tackled by what is essentially glorified next-token prediction.

There is also one important issue. Did IMO verify the solutions? Do they agree with the claims?

If you are interested in safety/security jailbreaking of LLMs, defenses against them, and how the safety issues become more complicated when we design agentic workflows, this tutorial by Hamed Hassani, Amin Karbasi, Alex Robey is highly recommended

AI+Science book is now up, After years of work, our book on Artificial Intelligence for Science in Quantum, Atomistic, and Continuum Systems is available at Foundations and Trends® in Machine Learning. We cover the history of works in the intersection of AI and Science, to

Neurips is running the largest LLM scientific evaluation in history. We just found a human in the loop.

I’m gonna be recruiting students thru both Language Technologies Institute | @CarnegieMellon (NLP) and CMU Engineering & Public Policy (Engineering and Public Policy) for fall 2026! If you are interested in reasoning, memorization, AI for science & discovery and of course privacy, u can catch me at ACL! Prospective students fill this form:

Excited to announce the Reliable ML workshop at NeurIPS Conference 2025! 📣 How do we build trustworthy models under distribution shift, adversarial attacks, strategic behavior, and missing data? Fantastic lineup of speakers/panelists: Ahmad Beirami (Ahmad Beirami), Surbhi Goel

🚨 New IFT model drop: Foundation-Sec-8B-Instruct is now live! Instruction-tuned, security-focused, open weights — and it outperforms much larger models on key benchmarks. Read more from the team: linkedin.com/pulse/foundati… #AI #CyberSecurity #LLM #OpenSource #IFT

Coding matters not because of the act of coding, but because there is much more to coding, like the whole computer science.

An amazing effort on top of a very permissive license.

Once again OpenAI is open. openai.com/open-models/ This is an amazing move by Sam Altman and the entire team behind it. Congrats all around.

My longtime collaborator Dave Patterson (long-time faculty at UC Berkeley, Association for Computing Machinery Turing Award winner, and fellow Laude Institute board member) wrote a very good op-ed about how continued investing in basic science and technology research is essential for the U.S. Dave

Everything is borrowed time, with or without AI.

Loved reading this. The only comment I have is that the cost of compute (how much you pay for an hour of GPU) has reduced dramatically in the last 3 years (i.e, it has not doubled).

We are wired to see our own best and others' worst. Maturity is flipping the lens: Be a generous fan of others and a tough editor of yourself! Self-awareness is underrated!

My own student vs Elon Musk 😂
