A must-read for ML researchers and engineers: alexirpan.com/2024/07/08/tra… Robotics is a domain that keeps AI/ML research honest. If an AI/ML approach from your paper is applicable to robotics in principle but can't be deployed on a robot w/o "future work" 😉, keep on trying!

I'll be giving a talk about PRISE at 10:30 a.m. today in hall A8 (in 1.5 hours), and will be happy to discuss it together with Ching-An Cheng at the 11:30 poster session. Hope to see you there!

Very cool work by former MSR colleague Debadeepta Dey's team at DataRobot. Their syftr system is about to make agentic workflow design decisions a whole lot easier. Of course, I can't help looking at this tool from the robotics perspective. GenAI-based agentic workflows for
