Back to the lecture prep grind. VERY early version of my lecture on Policy Gradients.
With #computervision and #robotics research appearing to converge, at least based on #CVPR2026 and my European tour conversations, it feels like good timing 😉
The 87-second deck covers trajectory gradients and Monte Carlo approximations.

#KostasThoughts: One of my goals this fall is to get back into my home studio, start recording lectures, and share them publicly. At this point, creating lecture slides and giving in-person lectures come fairly easily. Recording and editing lectures, however, still feels daunting 😬
@jbhuang0604 has been a major inspiration. I really enjoy his online lecture series. Top-quality content 💪

#KostasThoughts: Someone recently asked me about automating slide creation. For me, creating slides is part of the learning process. Breaking a topic into its building blocks and putting it back together helps me understand it.
I hope my students learn from the lecture, but I learn a great deal through the creation (and presenting) process as well.
That said, I have started using automated tools for ideation, evaluating my slide compositions, and generating images and videos.
TLDR: If I don’t understand it, I won’t present it.

My lecture motto: Your eyeballs are mine.
One idea at a time. The focus of the slide should always match the focus of the speech.

@CSProfKGD It still feels daunting for me. Putting yourself out there takes courage.
Looking forward to your lectures! We need more content creators!
