My brain is pretty split between ML I know how to teach and ML I do in practice. Really appreciate the honesty about when these are bridgeable.
Fantastic slides from the ICML tutorial of @MarkSchmidtUBC (“is opt theory relevant in 2026”) https://www.cs.ubc.ca/~schmidtm/Documents/2026_ICML_Tutorial.pdf
I remember @MarkSchmidtUBC very fondly from @CIFAR_News meetings as a quiet expert. Science has the egos and the egoless.

Excellent tutorial, a must see

Will link to the video here when posted.)
