"Open" AI: considering the ethical upsides and downsides of "Open" AI development
April 6, 2023 | David Gray WidderAbstract: In this talk, I will discuss the ethical upsides and downsides of releasing AI openly. I will first present our FAccT’22 paper [1], where we interview contributors to an open source Deepfake tool about their sense of responsibility and agency to prevent harm. We show that open source licenses and…
The BigScience Workshop
March 30, 2023 | Yacine JerniteAbstract: The presentation will focus on presenting the evolution of the BigScience Workshop, its outcomes, and its focus on governance of the project itself and of its data and models. Bio: Yacine Jernite currently leads the ML and Society team at Hugging Face, where they work on ML systems governance at the…
Moving Forward by Moving Backward: Embedding Action Impact over Action Semantics
March 23, 2023 | Kuo-Hao Zeng, Luca Weihs, Roozbeh Mottaghi, Ali FarhadiThis video describes the Action Adaptive Policy by Zeng et al. (ICLR 2023). In the video, we discuss the formulation of motion drifts in point navigation and object navigation tasks. Additionally, we introduce the Action Adaptive Policy (AAP) to address these motion drifts. Finally, we demonstrate that AAP…
Recycling finetuned models to pretrain: on loss spaces, fusing and evolving pretraining
March 7, 2023 | Leshem ChoshenThis work will discuss the recent advancement in recycling finetuned models – Harnessing the data and computation invested in one or more models to collaboratively improve the pre-trained model they originated form. The work will also touch on our initial understandings of how and why fusing several models by…
Robot learning and perception for contact-rich manipulation
March 2, 2023 | Samarth BrahmbhattAbstract: Object rearrangement will become an important skill for collaborative robots as they increasingly operate in unstructured environments. Rearrangement involves grasping, goal-conditioned navigation, and placement. In this talk, I will present our latest work, which focuses on placement. We learn a…
Empowering Human-like Decision Making in AI Models through Explanations
February 22, 2023 | Ramasamy Selvaraju RamprasaathAbstract: Deep neural networks have achieved remarkable results in several Computer Vision tasks, but their increasing complexity poses challenges in terms of interpretability. In this talk, I will present my research on explainability in deep learning models, ranging from convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to…
Environment-oriented modeling for grounded NLP and collective intelligence systems
February 21, 2023 | Ronen TamariAbstract: “Ask not what's inside your head, but what's your head inside of” — W.M. Mace, 1977 In contrast to classical cognitive science which studied brains in isolation, ecological cognitive science accounts focus on the role of the body and external environment in shaping cognition. In this talk I will…
Understanding and Improving Compositional Generalization
February 10, 2023 | Ben BoginPre-trained language models perform well on a large variety of question-answering tasks, but they still often fail in the compositional generalization setup, where models are tested on unseen compositions of reasoning skills. In this talk, I will go over three research directions that address this challenge. In…
No Language Left Behind Unlocking Text Data for Under Resourced
February 9, 2023 | Shruti RijhwaniNLP systems are limited by the availability of text data, and because machine-readable text exists only in a few hundred languages, most of the world’s languages are under-represented in modern language technologies. Text data exists in many more languages! However, it is locked away in printed books and…
Artificial Intelligence and Ethics: Towards a Robust Normative Framework
February 8, 2023 | S. Matthew LiaoAbstract: As AI technologies continue to advance, questions about the ethics of AI become more pressing than ever. In this talk, I aim to outline some of the key issues in the study of AI ethics, identify some of the core claims that have been made, and propose an ethical framework that can help us guide these…
