InteRACT: Transformer Models for Human Intent Prediction Conditioned on Robot Actions
In collaborative human-robot manipulation, a robot must predict human intents and adapt its actions accordingly to smoothly execute tasks. However, the human's intent in turn depends on actions the robot takes, creating a chicken-or-egg problem. Prior methods ignore such inter-dependency and instead train marginal intent prediction models independent of robot actions. This is because training conditional models is hard given a lack of paired human-robot interaction datasets. Can we instead leve…

I3: Intent-Introspective Retrieval Conditioned on Instructions
Recent studies indicate that dense retrieval models struggle to perform well on a wide variety of retrieval tasks that lack dedicated training data, as different retrieval tasks often entail distinct search intents. To address this challenge, in this work we leverage instructions to flexibly describe retrieval intents and introduce I3, a unified retrieval system that performs Intent-Introspective retrieval across various tasks, conditioned on Instructions without any task-specific training. I3 …

As a victim of a SLAPP suit, I recognize this kind of shitty behavior from amoral companies. The only intent is to chill speech.
I hope Elon has to pay attorney fees and piles and piles of damages.
“Judge tosses Elon Musk’s X lawsuit against anti-hate group; A federal judge says the lawsuit was about ‘punishing’ the CCDH ‘for their speech’ criticizing X.”

Judge tosses Elon Musk’s X lawsuit against anti-hate group
A federal judge has dismissed Elon Musk X’s lawsuit against the Center for Countering Digital Hate. The judge says X wanted to “punish” the organization for criticizing X.

We celebrated Peterson's one week anniversary yesterday. Our brave hero--born from a handful of puppy floof, 2 earplugs, and a broken bit of chalk--has successfully protected our screen-loving kiddo (from playing dumb video games her school signed her up for) for over 7 gloriously happy days.
This was never our intent, but the kid loves #Peterson, and hasn't once considered…

Predictive Intent Maintenance with Intent Drift Detection in Next Generation Network
Intent-Based Networking (IBN) is a known concept for enabling the autonomous configuration and self-adaptation of networks. One of the major issues in IBN is maintaining the applied intent due the effects of drifts over time, which is the gradual degradation in the fulfillment of the intents, before they fail. Despite its critical role to intent assurance and maintenance, intent drift detection was largely overlooked in the literature. To fill this gap, we propose an intent drift detection algo…

“Trump, unlike Biden, is alleged to have engaged in extensive and repeated efforts to obstruct justice and thwart the return of documents bearing classification markings,” Harbach added. “And the evidence concerning the two men’s intent — whether they knowingly possessed and willfully retained such documents — is also starkly different.”

"Impact over intent" is the same approach: the actions and effects and perception matter more than the intent
It's not that the intent isn't "relevant" but that it isn't "important". Discussing intent helps us reach mutual understanding so that in the future we can more accurately create the effects we intend. Intent is how we identify shared goals and discuss how to effectively achieve them.

Not his* fault! He simply found himself negotiating a contract, signing it, performing the forgery, optimizing it for the distribution method, and taking payment! He had no choice whatsoever! It must have been terrible!
