I'm not sure if y'all saw a CNN report on how the US had almost started WW3 with China based on fabricated information generated by a chatbot, claiming that a Chinese vessel was carrying components of nuclear weapons. That was an "existential threat" to humanity www.theguardia…

Forget ‘superintelligence’: error-prone AI nearly sparked world war three this month | Timnit Gebru and Emily M Bender theguardian.com
AI Weekly's analysis →
  • A US special operations analyst used a chatbot to assess intel on a Chinese ship, and the AI falsely claimed it carried nuclear weapon components.
  • Military planes were in the air and personnel were preparing to board before officials caught the hallucination and stood down, per CNN sources.
  • Gebru and Bender argue the real AI risk is error-prone deployment in high-stakes settings today, not speculative superintelligence.

The proceedings of ICML 2026 are online, including a position paper I took part to: proceedings.mlr.press/v306/papamar... The 29 other authors did all the work 😅 but I'm still proud to share it. Also I "officially" become a co-author of so many people I like a lot, this makes …

Position: Agentic AI Orchestration Should Be Bayes-Consistent proceedings.mlr.press
AI Weekly's analysis →
  • A 30-author ICML position paper argues Bayesian decision theory belongs in the orchestration layer of agentic AI, not inside the LLMs themselves.
  • The authors call making LLMs internally Bayesian 'computationally intensive and conceptually nontrivial as a general modeling target'.
  • They pitch calibrated beliefs and utility-aware policies for choices like which tool to call, which expert to consult, and how many resources to invest.

Recent commentary

I wonder how others feel about this. My impression is that it is increasingly hard to say, in double-blind reviewing, how “good” a paper is. Strangely, I think the credibility of an author (do I know this person and think she/he does good work) is an indicator that gained more importance with LLMs.

LLMs are somehow really good at telling you stuff you already know, but in a different, convoluted way, making it look really smart. Almost like replies by users on Reddit. …wait 🧐

I look forward to the time when the US population thinks AI tech from the US is better than that from other nations, not because it’s actually better, but solely because it’s called super “intelligence”.

Excited for the WASP(-HS) workshop on Bias, Representation and Transparency in generative models!
