By Toby Walsh, UNSW Sydney The legendary American bank robber Willie Sutton spent 40 years robbing banks because, as he claimed in his autobiography, he loved doing it. And when asked why he chose banks of all places to rob, he allegedly replied “Because that’s where the money is.” Back in 2017, I wrote a […]

In this crosspost from AI Matters – a publication of the ACM SIGAI – Ella Scallan sat down with Jonathan Frankle to discuss the lottery ticket hypothesis, for which he was awarded the 2023 AAAI/ACM Doctoral Dissertation Award. In this wide-ranging conversation, Jonathan delves into empiricism vs theoretical proofs, how the approach to computer science
Gloria Mendoza / The Environmental Impact of Data Centers in Vulnerable Ecosystems / Licenced by CC-BY 4.0 By Adam Zewe Due to the explosive growth of artificial intelligence, it is estimated that data centers will consume up to 12 percent of total U.S. electricity by 2028, according to the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Improving data
By Stephan Xie, Ben Cohen, Mononito Goswami, Junhong Shen, Emaad Khwaja, Chenghao Liu, David Asker, Othmane Abou-Amal, Ameet Talwalkar More than a trillion dollars are lost every year due to system failures. To resolve them, engineers must troubleshoot outages quickly. An important task in incident response involves analyzing observability metrics, or time series data that

By Michael Psenka, Mike Rabbat, Aditi Krishnapriyan, Yann LeCun, Amir Bar GRASP is a new gradient-based planner for learned dynamics (a “world model”) that makes long-horizon planning practical by (1) lifting the trajectory into virtual states so optimization is parallel across time, (2) adding stochasticity directly to the state iterates for exploration, and (3) reshaping
