I'm burnt out of discussing "AI". I don't care for the press releases from big companies. I hate having to comment immediately. I dislike "hot takes". I'm worried we, as scientists, are losing touch with scientific values. We've become customers, salivating at ads marketed to investors. 1/15

I'm happy to announce the #NeurIPS2026 workshop TS-LIMITS (Generalization for Time Series in Tight Settings: Latency, Inference, Memory, prIvacy and susTainability), which will be hosted in Paris, France 🇫🇷, Dec 12–13 2026! 🔗 Check out details and call for papers: ts-limits.github.io
Back to paper exam for my machine learning course next year (thanks LLMs for ruining lab reports BTW). But at least I'm having fun designing ML "skill" questions. My neighbors can probably hear "wicked witch of the west" cackling this morning.
Excited to announce that our workshop "Bridging Optimal Transport, Learning and Structured Data: Toward Geometric Distributional Learning" has been accepted at #NeurIPS2026 in Paris. ⏰Deadline: Aug 29, AoE 🔗Website with more informations: gddl-neurips-2026.github.io

Une rupture d'égalité devant la loi qui n'a pas sa place dans un état de droit...
Initié par LR et soutenu par le camp gouvernemental et le RN, le projet de loi instaurant une présomption de légitime défense pour les forces de l’ordre a été poussé par Laurent Nuñez, à l’aide de l'article 44 alinéa 2. ➡️ https://l.liberation.fr/NhE
We just released POT 0.9.7 with many new OT solvers including lazy and sparse exact solvers, HD Gaussians, sliced OT plans, Spectral-Grassmann OT, batch exact OT with Proximal point, BSP-OT, unbalanced 1D and semidiscrete. This is a big one! Thanks to all contributors! github.com/PythonOT/POT...
I’ll be at ICML presenting our paper! Come say hi and check out our poster on Thursday 9th (Hall A, poster #3710). Huge thanks to @simonroschmann.bsky.social @paulkrz.bsky.social, @qbouniot.bsky.social and @zeynepakata.bsky.social for this great collaboration !
Excited to share that our paper "SOTAlign: Semi-Supervised Alignment of Unimodal Vision and Language Models via Optimal Transport" was accepted at ICML. 📄 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2602.23353 💻 Code: github.com/ExplainableM...
“I have done all of the things that one is supposed to do to earn a tenure-track position. And I have done approximately 85% of them by typing prompts into a large language model and then moderately editing the output.” 🤣🤣🤣 brilliant 👌🏽 open.substack.com/pub/inprepar...
Opinion: I Was Not Allowed To Type Prompts Into ChatGPT During My Chalk Talk And This Is Discrimination

Yes. But I fear the train has left the station, there is nothing we can do. Not using LLMs is too big of a disadvantage. 1/2
As scientists we should remember that when we talk science with an AI model we teach private companies how to do science and not a new generation of scientists that will contribute to society. Time spent doing faster research with AI agents is not spent mentoring students. Better CV but worth it?
This article in Le Monde about French research in general and the CNRS in particular has a few depressing graphs www.lemonde.fr/sciences/art...
Can compute alone replace strong and original research ideas? No luck so far on my side
🚀 Excited to announce the release of skada v0.6.0! This new release brings important additions to the library and continued work to keep the ecosystem compatible with Sklearn!
Congratulations to @tgnassou.bsky.social for the SSFAM PhD prize. Théo has done both very good (I might be biased) ML research but also contributed a lot to the open source community with SKADA, skada-bench and contributions to POT. Plus for potential recruiters it's a pleasure to work with him
I'm thrilled to have been awarded the thesis prize by the SSFAM 🥳 Thank you to the jury for the recognition you've given me 🙏 A big thanks to @rflamary.bsky.social and Alex to supporting me in this PhD! I'm looking forward to present my work at CAp 2026 in Montpellier, see you there :)

@gabrielpeyre.bsky.social has written a book that will (again) have a huge impact on the field of OT for ML. Strongly recommended!
The alpha version of my new book "Optimal Transport for Machine Learners" is out, with in particular an online version with interactive figures www.gpeyre.com/ot4ml/

Yep I'm been playing with the BSP-OT solver and it is quite fast. The following interpolation is done on 300k samples and only takes a few seconds (but can only find permutations). Generating the GIF/animation is slower than solving the problem.
BSP-OT is now available in POT main branch! github.com/PythonOT/POT (👏 @baptiste-genest.bsky.social )
