Mon fils de seize ans qui me dit “c’est la première finale de coupe du monde que je regarde sans la France “ 🙄 pourri gâté cet ado …

#ANGFRA pour la 3e place samedi… le match Prozac. 😅 D'un côté les Bleus, qui viennent de prendre une leçon de foot face à l'Espagne. De l'autre les Anglais, qui se demandent encore ce qui leur est tombé sur la tête. 🤯 Pas certain que le vainqueur reparte avec un meilleur moral

Bonjour ! Mon fils étudiant cherche un studio ou une chambre en colocation du côté de Saint-Denis / Villetaneuse / Paris Nord. Une piste, une colloc où une chambre se libère ? Contactez-moi en DM. Merci d'avance ! 🙏

Reviewing for ACL Rolling Review and amazed again how related work older than 5y just disappears in the dark. Authors re-propose ideas from 2 or 3 generations of techniques ago ... and I don't even dare cite the originals, they'd treat them as ancient history...

As Claude and similar tools become serious research accelerators, a new divide is emerging: industrial labs can afford enterprise AI plans for their scientists; many academic labs cannot. The research gap isn't just about compute anymore. Not everyone gets the shot.

🚀 Research intern opening @NAVERLABSEurope (Grenoble, 5–6 months) Topic: enforcing hard constraints in LLMs while preserving quality Looking for: 🎓 PhD (or exceptional MSc) student 🧠 LLMs + PyTorch 📚 RLHF / alignment methods 📍 Onsite only apply → lnkd.in/dPf3DfDd

Congratulations to Dr. @beomseok-lee.bsky.social for defending his thesis yesterday @fbk-mt.bsky.social on 'Multilingual SLU'! Pictured here w/collaborator Ioan Calapodescu & co-supervisor @lbesacier.bsky.social. Welcome to @naverlabseurope.bsky.social alumni ➡️ tinyurl.com/2pcveh6z ☺️

#ALPS2026 is over! 🎉 A week of inspiring talks, poster sessions and great moments! Huge thanks to our speakers: R. Moore, F. Yvon, I. Augenstein, J. Kreutzer, T. Lacroix, C. Ramisch & M. Scholivet! 👏

It was a pleasure to present on LLMs' knowledge conflicts at #ALPS2026! Slides: isabelleaugenstein.github.io/slides/2026_... Also really enjoyed the snowshoeing excursion. Warm recommendation if you're looking to attend a #NLProc winter school! @aicentre.dk @lbesacier.bsky.social

#ALPS2026 is also about shared activities in the beautiful landscapes of the Vanoise.

Two great talks offering different perspectives on Day 1 of #ALPS2026: Roger Moore (Prof. University of Sheffield) on spoken interaction with machines, and Timothée Lacroix (CTO Mistral AI) sharing LLM experience from the field…

It's great to see how the ALPS winter school has progressively established itself in the field. If you're a student in NLP watch lig-alps.imag.fr in Sept to apply for next year before the deadline! This year is a special treat for skiers with all the late snow we keep having ❄️⛷️ Have a great week!

Distribution Matching Prevents Mode Collapse in Training Reasoning Models

A Blog post by Germán Kruszewski on Hugging Face

Inference-time scaling is great, but it only works if your model actually explores. RL training — by default — kills that exploration. If you are curious to learn why and what we did about it in about our recent ICLR 2026 paper, check out this 🧵!
