Associate Professor of ECE&CS@UCLA. ML, RL, big data, algorithms, astronomy.
🚨 Olympiad math + AI: We ran Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro on the fresh IMO 2025 problems. With careful prompting and pipeline design, it solved 5 out of 6 — remarkable for tasks demanding deep insight and creativity. The model could win gold! 🥇 #AI #Math #LLMs #IMO2025
I’m now officially an Associate Professor with tenure at UCLA, in the Electrical & Computer Engineering and Computer Science departments. Deeply grateful to my students, mentors, collaborators, and colleagues for their support along the way. @UCLAengineering
The "apology" does not even mention the word "Chinese." Also, the "NOTE: Most Chinese who I know are honest and morally upright" in the slide shows Picard was aware of the negative impact. A true apology should explicitly explain the root reason for having "Chinese" in the slide
In addition, Dr. Picard has also released an apology to the NeurIPS community. It can be read at neurips.cc/Conferences/20…
I saw a slide circulating on social media last night while working on a deadline. I didn’t comment immediately because I wanted to understand the full context before speaking. After learning more, I feel compelled to address what I witnessed during an invited talk at NeurIPS 2024…
It is just so sad that the #NeurIPS2024 main conference ended with such a racist remark by a faculty when talking about ethics. How ironic! I also want to commend the Chinese student who spoke up right on spot. She was respectful, decent, and courageous. Her response was…
Can’t believe this happened…
Mitigating racial bias from LLMs is a lot easier than removing it from humans! Can’t believe this happened at the best AI conference @NeurIPSConf We have ethical reviews for authors, but missed it for invited speakers? 😡
