Content warning: Death Meditation

I haven't been meditating regularly and I always feel immediate benefit when I do. In part things get better when you do meditate, but it becomes hard to see the contrast as you did when you started again.
Sometimes changing techniques from open-observation, focused attention, mindfulness to either a more visceral practice like alternating nostril breathing or contemplative practice can be useful and welcome change if your previous practice lacks vigor or feels mundane.

Compositional System Dynamics: The Higher Mathematics Underlying System Dynamics Diagrams & Practice
This work establishes a robust mathematical foundation for compositional System Dynamics modeling, leveraging category theory to formalize and enhance the representation, analysis, and composition of system models. Here, System Dynamics diagrams, such as stock & flow diagrams, system structure diagrams, and causal loop diagrams, are formulated as categorical constructs, enabling scalable, transparent, and systematic reasoning.

Position Paper: Integrating Explainability and Uncertainty Estimation in Medical AI
Uncertainty is a fundamental challenge in medical practice, but current medical AI systems fail to explicitly quantify or communicate uncertainty in a way that aligns with clinical reasoning. Existing XAI works focus on interpreting model predictions but do not capture the confidence or reliability of these predictions. Conversely, uncertainty estimation (UE) techniques provide confidence measures but lack intuitive explanations. The disconnect between these two areas limits AI adoption in medi…

Do You Need Proprioceptive States in Visuomotor Policies?
Imitation-learning-based visuomotor policies have been widely used in robot manipulation, where both visual observations and proprioceptive states are typically adopted together for precise control. However, in this study, we find that this common practice makes the policy overly reliant on the proprioceptive state input, which causes overfitting to the training trajectories and results in poor spatial generalization. On the contrary, we propose the State-free Policy, removing the proprioceptiv…

The 2024 US presidential election is the first major contest to occur in the US since the popularization of large language models (LLMs).

Has anyone making this feature actually asked any accessibility experts and any disabled people if this is a good idea?
Because in practice this will give you terrible results, because AI can’t know what you intent do communicate with the image.
Even if it would give good results (it doesn’t and never will) and you’re too lazy to write alt text yourself, it would be better to do this on the receiving end where the disabled person could fine-tune generative alt text to their specific needs.

"Thinking of AI as an instrument recenters the focus on practice. Instruments require a performance that relies on technique—the horn makes the sound, but how and what you blow into it matters.“
I think this talk offers a differentiated take on AI in how to deal with it in a way that is not all-in and over-consuming.

The robotic assembly task poses a key challenge in building generalist robots due to the intrinsic complexity of part interactions and the sensitivity to noise perturbations in contact-rich settings. The assembly agent is typically designed in a hierarchical manner: high-level multi-part reasoning and low-level precise control. However, implementing such a hierarchical policy is challenging in practice due to the mismatch between high-level skill queries and low-level execution. To address this…
