Today Aviral Chawla and I presented a poster at ICML on our new paper MetaOthello: A Controlled Study of Multiple World Models in Transformers (work with Galen Hall). Thank you to everyone who came by this was a blast. See our paper here metaothello.github.io #ICML2026 #MechanisticInterpretability
Excited to be here at my first ICML, friends if you're here too hit me up.
Congratulations Prithaj Nath for successfully defending his Master's thesis today!! So so proud! His work on quantifying stress (allostatic load) with wearables is a really thoughtful contribution.
Congratulations @lhd.bsky.social for winning the Erdős-Rényi award and giving a kickass acceptance talk at the netsci @netsciconf.bsky.social conference!!

Governments and regulatory systems are small structures aiming to represent a much larger population and make decisions. Can this process of governance be modeled as a network? In today's @binghamtoncoco.bsky.social seminar, @juniperlov.bsky.social introduced us to her model to answer that question!

It might start as a joke, belief, or rumor, easy to dismiss. But then it twists, builds momentum, and spreads like wildfire. Why do some ideas die out while others go viral? A new study by researchers from the University of Vermont and the Santa Fe Institute offers answers: santafe.edu/news

Complexity science indirectly discovers democratic municipalism as an optimal solution to democratic governance. cool work by the folks at @vcsi.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s44... may be of interest @jamesstout.bsky.social @miawong.bsky.social
just arrived to Norrköping for #IC2S2 can't wait to see everyones amazing new computational social science this week!
Hear me discuss our new paper written with the inimitable Laurent Hébert-Dufresne and colleagues! @lhd.bsky.social #Complexity #Physiology #Governance www.nature.com/articles/s44...
We’re hiring two postdocs at UC Davis and Cornell for research on collective intelligence and creativity. This project will use large-scale online experiments to study how groups become smarter and more creative through self-governance. ⅓
