I am not an elevator pitch.
I don't have clear, clean boundaries.
My #art has always been more MacGyver than artisan.

A screenshot of an excerpt from the full thought linked in the post. The excerpt reads: "I see this website as medium, as container, as partner, as poem, as participant, as art, as observer, as receiver, as comforter, as challenger, as limiter, as enabler, as artistic practice, as scroll, as...almost anything but "a website" or "a blog." Still...the parts of me that anguish over how to "properly present" myself, my work, my art, my writing to the world...those parts want to prune it all down, …

We all perform tasks in our day-to-day work that are considered 'non-promotable' – these are crucial for project success, but they won't get you promoted. This is commonly known as 'glue work', a term coined by Tanya Reilly. Join Fatima Taj at this year's Berlin Buzzwords as she shares her personal experience of narrowly avoiding the trap of being permanently stuck with glue work, and explains how to handle similar situations.

How I Sidestepped ‘Being Glue’
Abstract: We all do things in our day to day work that are deemed ‘non-promotable’ - these are tasks that are crucial for project success but might not get you promoted. This is commonly known as glue work, a term coined by Tanya O’Reilly. Your first instinct about this could be to drop these tasks immediately, but this might not be the best approach. Being glue doesn’t mean an end to your career, and it isn’t something that you can’t recover from. During this talk, I will use a per…

SceneCompleter: Dense 3D Scene Completion for Generative Novel View Synthesis
Generative models have gained significant attention in novel view synthesis (NVS) by alleviating the reliance on dense multi-view captures. However, existing methods typically fall into a conventional paradigm, where generative models first complete missing areas in 2D, followed by 3D recovery techniques to reconstruct the scene, which often results in overly smooth surfaces and distorted geometry, as generative models struggle to infer 3D structure solely from RGB data. In this paper, we propo…

After moving my homelab cluster from microk8s to Talos, I've written a new blog post outlining the cluster build:

beyondwatts | Setting up a Talos kubernetes cluster with talhelper
While I’ve self-hosted for many years, I started my kubernetes journey with the aim of avoiding single points of failure. For my first foray into kubernetes, I started with microk8s but was never completely happy with the setup. I don’t know if the Raspberry Pis were underpowered or the microk8s use of dqlite, but there were times the cluster became unresponsive for no obvious reason. Time for a change. Jumping to end of the story: Talos has been rock solid since the move.

How Well Can Reasoning Models Identify and Recover from Unhelpful Thoughts?
Recent reasoning models show the ability to reflect, backtrack, and self-validate their reasoning, which is crucial in spotting mistakes and arriving at accurate solutions. A natural question that arises is how effectively models can perform such self-reevaluation. We tackle this question by investigating how well reasoning models identify and recover from four types of unhelpful thoughts: uninformative rambling thoughts, thoughts irrelevant to the question, thoughts misdirecting the question a…

Prompt Attacks Reveal Superficial Knowledge Removal in Unlearning Methods
In this work, we show that some machine unlearning methods may fail when subjected to straightforward prompt attacks. We systematically evaluate eight unlearning techniques across three model families, and employ output-based, logit-based, and probe analysis to determine to what extent supposedly unlearned knowledge can be retrieved. While methods like RMU and TAR demonstrate robust unlearning, ELM remains vulnerable to specific prompt attacks (e.g., Hindi filler text in original prompt recover…

RAG has revolutionised AI by merging search and generation. Agentic behaviour takes this search to the next level by enabling LLMs to make decisions and call tools. At this year's Berlin Buzzwords, Bilge Yücel will discuss how agentic behaviour enhances pipelines, what it means for a system to act as an 'agent', and core concepts such as routing, tool calling and reasoning, along with a live demo.

Go Beyond Basic RAG with Agentic Behavior
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has transformed how we build Q&A systems with Large Language Models (LLMs) by combining the strengths of search and generation. However, traditional RAG workflows are static and often struggle to handle the dynamic and complex demands of real-world applications, such as answering multi-step queries, integrating external APIs, or gracefully recovering from retrieval failures. Agentic behavior addresses these challenges by extending RAG pipelines, enabling LLM…
