#AAAI2023 tweet round-up: the conference in summary

After a week of talks, posters, tutorials and workshops, the 37th AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI2023) drew to a close on Tuesday. We take a look back at some of the highlights through the lens of the Twittersphere.

Some excellent invited talks

Talk by Prof. Josh Tanenbaum! Had a good laugh about how to retrieve a ping-pong ball from underneath the couch.#AAAI23 pic.twitter.com/buj4S5eWpE

Fabulous start to @RealAAAI #AAAI2023 this morning, with a great talk by Manuela Veloso. She spoke about humans and AI systems jointly solving complex problems, focussing on the domains of robotics and finance. pic.twitter.com/U53fsb18Y9

It was such an honor to give a keynote at #AAAI23 (@RealAAAI), this wonderful conference that has meant so much to my career, with all these amazing people that have supported me over the years. https://t.co/I7WEZWWJJs

The @AnimaAnandkumar #AAAI23 talk is insane!

"Neural operators" can solve PDE problems much faster than numerical methods (e.g., weather prediction 45K times faster than currently used techniques!)

It feels like this work didn't receive the public attention it deserves!

Talks and posters

Presenting our #AAAI2023 paper (w/ Rajesh Ranganath), Robustness to Spurious Correlations Improves Semantic Out-of-Distribution Detection! https://t.co/2eaLbl7S63
This work draws a connection between OOD generalization and OOD detection that we hope inspires future work in both. pic.twitter.com/OApoIoNGsx

Walking around the exhibits at #AAAI23 and stumbling on a poster about the problem I defined (“Majority Illusion in Networks”) – what a wonderful surprise! This group took it in a completely new direction, showing that it is NP complete. pic.twitter.com/PXyRYOHNE1

Is it just me or do all PhD students LOVE talking about their research? ?

Grateful to have the opportunity to present my work at #AAAI23 & interact w/ so many talents here. Always nice to hear good things about your research! @RealAAAI @core_robotics @GTCSE @ICatGT @GTrobotics pic.twitter.com/jtgNAAVOKC

My student, Seong-Woong, just nailed his first presentation on our work, Better Generalized Few-Shot Learning Even Without Base Data, in #AAAI23 #AAAI2023
I am so proud of him!! pic.twitter.com/yxLpnYE6eK

Excited to be sharing the first experiment of my PhD, Social Intelligence Towards Human-AI Teambuilding at #AAAI23 @RealAAAI. The work is coauthored by @FrankPollick and recieved support from @QumodoAI. Naturally I had to bring the unofficial @Social__AI ambassador! pic.twitter.com/Mf5ZkQzJvi

Workshops

In-person participation in #AAAI23 (@RealAAAI) and its ag workshop (AIAFS) was fun. Bumping into some old colleagues was definitely the most fun part ? pic.twitter.com/A825HHbdYL

I was so happy to present my latest project on dynamic temporal clustering as a long oral presentation at the #W3PHIAI workshop at #AAAI2023. It’s been a long time since I’ve done an in person presentation ? Thanks to my coauthors! @IoanaBica95 @pl219_Cambridge @AriErcole pic.twitter.com/weqVB607tI

The conference experience

The #AAAI23 #EAAI conference in D.C ended well. I'm happy for the new contacts, the opportunity to learn from others and for the feedback on my work. I had the pleasure to finally meet two long-time friends in person, @lilyxu0 and @jessie_fin you both are just amazing! pic.twitter.com/vgGrqZIVlQ
