🎉 Congratulations to Prof. @mohitbansal.bsky.social for receiving the Presidential #PECASE Award by @WhiteHouse, which is the highest honor bestowed by US govt. on outstanding scientists/engineers who show exceptional potential for leadership early in their careers! whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-up...

🚨 We have postdoc openings at UNC 🙂 Exciting+diverse NLP/CV/ML topics**, freedom to create research agenda, competitive funding, very strong students, mentorship for grant writing, collabs w/ many faculty+universities+companies, superb quality of life/weather. Please apply + help spread the word 🙏

Workshop days are always the most engaging and rewarding. Here are my two picks for this weekend: Saturday Video-language video-and-language-workshop-2024.webflow.io Sunday Multimodal algorithmic reasoning marworkshop.github.io/neurips24/ Do you have other recommendations? #NeurIPS #NeurIPS2024

Excited to attend #NeurIPS and give a talk on video-language models for complex video understanding in the First Workshop on Video-Language Models on Saturday at 10:10am PST. Stop by + DM/email if you want to chat about anything related to video-language modeling.

🚨 I’m on the academic job market! j-min.io I work on ✨Multimodal AI✨, advancing reasoning in understanding & generation by: 1⃣ Making it scalable 2⃣ Making it faithful 3⃣ Evaluating + refining it Completing my PhD at UNC (w/ @mohitbansal.bsky.social). Happy to connect (will be at #NeurIPS2024)! 👇🧵

🚨 I am on the faculty job market this year 🚨 I will be presenting at #NeurIPS2024 and am happy to chat in-person or digitally! I work on developing AI agents that can collaborate and communicate robustly with us and each other. More at: esteng.github.io and in thread below 🧵👇

Introducing 🧞Genie 2 🧞 - our most capable large-scale foundation world model, which can generate a diverse array of consistent worlds, playable for up to a minute. We believe Genie 2 could unlock the next wave of capabilities for embodied agents 🧠.

We generate a soundtrack for a silent video, given a text prompt! For example, we can make a cat's meow sound like a lion's roar or a typewriter sound like a piano. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2411.17698 Webpage: ificl.github.io/MultiFoley/ Led by @czyang.bsky.social! bsky.app/profile/czya...
