Good news for France, for Europe, and I hope also for the world. Happy to support it and work together closely in Europe.

Help us build the ELLIS Institute: the new call for Hector Endowed PI positions is at tue.ellis.eu/jobs/PI2024. The positions come with the possibility for co-appointment at Max Planck & Tübingen AI Center #ELLISforEurope #Tuebingen #AI Intelligent Systems

Want to do a PhD in ML, consider applying to the fully-funded Cambridge - Tübingen PhD Fellowship. From personal experience supervised by Ferenc Huszár and Bernhard Schölkopf, this is the best PhD out there! ei.is.mpg.de/news/cambridge… Deadline: noon, Dec 5th.

Can LLMs pass 𝐂𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭? In our #NeurIPS2023 paper “CLadder: A Benchmark to Assess Causal Reasoning Capabilities of LMs”, we test LLMs on the Pearl's 3 Rungs of Causality, and found that LLMs are *far* from solving them.➡️arxiv.org/abs/2312.04350

Thank you all. The text has now also appeared in a German translation, see faz.net/aktuell/wirtsc…

The Oberwolfach Research Institute for Mathematics (MFO) was also the location of the latest #ELLISProgram workshop on Interactive Learning and Interventional Representations. Check out this detailed recap by Giorgia Ramponi Giorgia Ramponi: ifi.uzh.ch/en/alpi/blog.h…

A real loss for astronomy! I am hoping you’ll be back, but worried that google will like you so much that they will make it hard for you to leave.. Do keep your independence.

Fascinating visitors at our institute this week, with a CIFAR workshop & a scientific symposium for the upcoming ELLIS institute opening (1/2)

A talk about #xLSTM, by Maximilian Beck, first author of the xLSTM paper and ELLIS PhD student.

Can I re-post this replacing Geoff->Demis and Physics->Chemistry? Science is there to stay.

Exciting news! Finland to establish the 2nd ELLIS Institute, supported by gov't & industry. 🇫🇮Coordinated by Finnish Center for AI 🦣 @[email protected], Aalto University & ELLIS Unit Helsinki, this initiative strengthens Europe's AI ecosystem. #ELLISforEurope bit.ly/3YuuIoa

🇨🇦 🇪🇺 ELLIS and @CIFAR are joining forces to expand the ELLIS PhD & Postdoctoral Program in AI CIFAR Fellows and Canada AI Chairs will join ELLIS advisors, connecting PhD students with top AI researchers across Europe & North America. Learn more here: bit.ly/4hFvurq

Welcome to the institute - an exciting time to join!

This is an intriguing development - tabular data is harder that images or text in that each entry can mean something different.

CLeaR has became a top venue for Causality and ML - this year in beautiful Lausanne.

In 2015, we ran a workshop on "Drawing causal inference from Big Data" at the NAS. Back then, “Big Data” felt like a buzzword. Ten years later, we might finally have a method to make it real.
