Altman's iris-scanning orbs may have us in a privacy tizzy, but let's not forget that Zuck is hoping to recoup the $60B he lost on VR by gathering data in Meta's Ray-Bans—for AI, yes, but probably also to personalize ads you won't be able to look away from https://www.

I consider these kinds of events to be nearly useless symbolism, preaching to the choir.
I do accept that these events are useful as means to meet others, but one should not expect these events to have even the slightest impact on the maga/white-nationalist/musk-ites... Nor do I think they have much impact on those who are in "the middle" and do not particularly engage in politics.

Nearly 1,000 gather at Main Beach to create ‘Resist!’ human banner protesting Trump administration
Around 1,000 people gathered Saturday morning at Santa Cruz Main Beach to spell out the word “Resist!” The event, organized by Indivisible Santa Cruz County, aimed to protest the Trump administration and celebrate Santa Cruz Pride’s 50th anniversary.

Exploring Confinement in Anti-de Sitter Space
We study Yang-Mills theory on four dimensional Anti-de Sitter space. The Dirichlet boundary condition cannot exist at arbitrarily large radius because it would give rise to colored asymptotic states in flat space. As observed in [1] this implies a deconfinement-confinement transition as the radius is increased. We gather hints on the nature of this transition using perturbation theory. We compute the anomalous dimensions of the lightest scalar operators in the boundary theory, finding that the …

Insights from the History for Teaching Antimatter
The concept of antimatter is extremely important, but not always discussed as it deserves, balancing ideas and formalism. In this note, we gather some insights to present it effectively, following certain steps taken in the history of knowledge; although rarely remembered, they can serve to enrich standard teaching materials. In addition to the well-known contributions of Dirac, which we place in their original context, the contributions of Pauli and especially Majorana stand out, the latter be…

Identifying Causal Effects in Information Provision Experiments
Information treatments often shift beliefs more for people with weak belief effects. Since standard TSLS and panel specifications in information provision experiments have weights proportional to belief updating in the first-stage, this dependence attenuates existing estimates. This is natural if people whose decisions depend on their beliefs gather information before the experiment. I propose a local least squares estimator that identifies unweighted average effects in several classes of exper…

eACGM: Non-instrumented Performance Tracing and Anomaly Detection towards Machine Learning Systems
We present eACGM, a full-stack AI/ML system monitoring framework based on eBPF. eACGM collects real-time performance data from key hardware components, including the GPU and network communication layer, as well as from key software stacks such as CUDA, Python, and PyTorch, all without requiring any code instrumentation or modifications. Additionally, it leverages libnvml to gather process-level GPU resource usage information. By applying a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) to the collected multidime…

The rosy windows shone as I stood outside the building, hand resting uncertainly on the door. It was a cozy structure—climbing ivy, soft moss, warm brickwork and good, solid timbers. Light shone from within, and I heard muted laughter, the playing of piano, the soft rise and fall of chatter. I could be a part of It seemed like such a nice collective, and the coffee shop sanctuary looked so sublime: I just had to gather myself, and open up the door. #MastoPrompt #Microprompt #WSS366

Online Competitive Information Gathering for Partially Observable Trajectory Games
Game-theoretic agents must make plans that optimally gather information about their opponents. These problems are modeled by partially observable stochastic games (POSGs), but planning in fully continuous POSGs is intractable without heavy offline computation or assumptions on the order of belief maintained by each player. We formulate a finite history/horizon refinement of POSGs which admits competitive information gathering behavior in trajectory space, and through a series of approximations,…

Hey gang - if any of you are going to be in DC and attending the FFOTUS imperial march on June 14.
Remember, try to gather, early (so you get into the front row) across from the viewing stand (which will probably be on the south end of the white house lawn).
I recommend that when FFOTUS appears that you give him a full Braveheart mooning.
You can wear underwear - and I suggest that on the left side it has the letters "T A" and on the right "C O".

Geometry Meets Incentives: Sample-Efficient Incentivized Exploration with Linear Contexts
In the incentivized exploration model, a principal aims to explore and learn over time by interacting with a sequence of self-interested agents. It has been recently understood that the main challenge in designing incentive-compatible algorithms for this problem is to gather a moderate amount of initial data, after which one can obtain near-optimal regret via posterior sampling. With high-dimensional contexts, however, this \emph{initial exploration} phase requires exponential sample complexity…
