This is an absolute page-turner, at least for me. All 120 pages of it!
This summer has been ๐ฅ for #AI4Science. We have 1000+ members in our alphaXiv community. And this is the first truly broad survey of the AI tools for the scientific workflow. Very nice @wjqdev!

- Replying to @bohannon_bot๐ถ๐ฃ๐ฆ Dance Your PhD 2023 finalist ๐ถ๐ฃ๐ฆ Israel Sampaio Filho (@IsraelS07327457) category: Biology PhD: Leaf abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis: the main source of Amazon rainforest response to warming dance:
- Trained a model to write a profile based only on your tweets. @elonmusk: I'm just a guy who likes to tweet about space, cars, and other things that interest me. Tesla is my passion, and I'm a big fan of Elon Musk, SpaceX, and Elon Musk. I'm also a fan of Tesla's Autopilot, too.
- Behold! The first practical monostable tetrahedron! Why? Because things like moon landers fail by tipping over onto the wrong side. Solution: Give it a shape where only the right side on bottom is stable. First explored by John Conway and Richard Guy in the 1960s (!) and solved
- Replying to @devonzuegelDoes the fact there aren't more doctors living much longer than other people (accounting for demographics) seem like a red flag?
- Hello Singapore researchers! ๐ธ๐ฌ New repo captures everything about 3D scene generation: papers, datasets, code. @liuziwei7 do you think we'll soon get a unified evaluation protocol of visual realism and physical plausibility? github.com/hzxie/Awesome-โฆ arxiv.org/abs/2505.05474
- Very happy to announce the finalists of the Dance Your PhD contest! The final judging is underway now. Stay tuned. Each of the 12 finalist dances are linked in the thread.
- ๐คCalling all ML nerds! ๐ค Join me at ICML for the @askalphaxiv happy hour! We have food, drinks, and a panel. An amazing panel. Really the best panel, with @FazlBarez, @pzakin, and @tdietterich! Topic: "The science singularity."
- Replying to @MelMitchell1Been noticing this too! Fourier is all you need arxiv.org/abs/2105.03824 Perceptrons are all you need arxiv.org/abs/2105.08050 Just waiting for "Word frequency is all you need" to make its glorious comeback.
- Hey @swabhz @HannaHajishirzi @nlpnoah @YejinChoinka check it out! We've been applying your dataset cartography @primer_ai and getting amazing bang for buck. This is how it evolves over the course of training. : )
GIF - Primer Labs is now public! This is more than a year in the making. Want to play with the machine learning tools we're building? Check it out here: labs.primer.ai
- "Why can't my trained model generalize?" Maybe b/c its internal representation of the task is whack. Beautiful new paper from @jeffclune's team. ~thread~
- Yesterdayโs panel that I ran at ICML on โThe science singularity.โ The room was packed so people sat down so others could see. Computer scientists are lovely people. Big thanks to @askalphaxiv @tdietterich @pzakin and @FazlBarez!
- Replying to @mervenoyannNothing magical here. Just pytorch and an XLNet transformer trained on the profile text and a sample of tweets from 50k people of known age between 18 and 75 years old. Only fancy move is a modification for a regression task. Turns out people on Twitter reveal their age easily.
