I gradually realized just how lucky I was to have an advisor with such first reaction Let us protect our community together

Re the openreview mess, I sent this to my students and wanted to share:

OpenReview and its wide adoption is the best thing happened for CS peer review. My interactions with the OR team have generally been very positive.

ICLR has placed OpenReview in a difficult position, so I want to offer a few words about the OpenReview team working behind the scenes. OpenReview has long been operated at UMass Amherst as a non-profit organization founded by Andrew McCallum. Each year, Andrew must raise more…

If I have to pick TOP FIVE Courses to learn AI & ML from scratch, ❯ CS221 - AI ❯ CS229 - Machine Learning ❯ CS230 - DL ❯ CS234 - RL ❯ CS336 - LLM These courses could easily cost $100K in total. But Stanford has made these available on YouTube for FREE:

We just dropped Nano Banana Pro, built on Gemini 3. 🍌 With state-of-the-art text rendering, vast world knowledge and studio-quality creative controls, Gemini 3 Pro Image can create and edit more complex visuals, infographics and more. Here’s what’s under the hood. 🧵

Students in the US (and many other countries) can get their hands on all the Gemini 3 Pro goodness for free!

With advanced reasoning and the ability to analyze hour-long videos, Gemini 3 is perfect for students. And now, college students in the US can get Gemini's Pro plan for free, with more access to Gemini 3 Pro (terms apply). See how our most accurate model can help ⬇️

The current Gemini 3 Deep Think we released today is already extremely SOTA and it's still gonna get much much better! 🔥 Can't help but be AGI-piled being deeply closed to these models!

Gemini 3 Deep Think is next level. Deep Think was the the engine behind our gold medal-level wins at IMO and ICPC, and now powers an even stronger version of Gemini 3. SOTA above SOTA. More to come soon!

The secret behind Gemini 3? Simple: Improving pre-training & post-training 🤯 Pre-training: Contra the popular belief that scaling is over—which we discussed in our NeurIPS '25 talk with @ilyasut and @quocleix—the team delivered a drastic jump. The delta between 2.5 and 3.0 is…

We’ve been intensely cooking Gemini 3 for a while now, and we’re so excited and proud to share the results with you all. Of course it tops the leaderboards, including @arena, HLE, GPQA etc, but beyond the benchmarks it’s been by far my favourite model to use for its style and…

Gemini 3 is so good, someone on the team made this interactive record player in the @GeminiApp (sound on) How to try it: 1) Go to gemini.google.com/share/0c16fd6d… 2) Tap "load record" and pick some music 3) Adjust the knob to speed it up or slow it down

Also, we're exploring new ways to create games using Gemini 3 - we've created and published a few experimental YouTube Playables. Each of the games shown in the video below was created by Gemini 3 from scratch w/a few natural language prompts/images. Try them out at…

It’s a full-on stampede to use the @GeminiApp, the team is doing heroics to keep the system up and running, had to use temporary limits to manage the peak demand earlier. We're preparing for tomorrow’s peak and doing everything to make sure everyone can join in on the fun! 🍌🔥

Congratulations to @RichardSSutton & Andrew Barto for receiving this year's @TheOfficialACM A. M. Turing Award for their ground breaking work on the algorithms & foundations of reinforcement learning. RL is at the heart of many of the most exciting advances in AI today! 🎉

Meet the recipients of the 2024 ACM A.M. Turing Award, Andrew G. Barto and Richard S. Sutton! They are recognized for developing the conceptual and algorithmic foundations of reinforcement learning. Please join us in congratulating the two recipients! bit.ly/4hpdsbD

RL won Turing Award to day. Richard Sutton and Andrew Barto. For anyone getting the excitement to dive in RL after Turing Award and reasoning models, here is a copy of all-time RL book written by Turing winners.
