I advocate for years that to make leaps in AI and its domain we need AI polymaths: People that know the domain and not only apply AI but devise and develop new AI. In our VIOS team we train people to do such interdisciplinary AI. @chaihubuk

A great show of collaboration between UK and EU and a starting point for what we can do further with @chaihubuk. Congrats.
🎉Thrilled to share our paper "Benchmarking Counterfactual Image Generation" is accepted to @NeurIPSConf 2024!🌟
A big shoutout to my co-first authors Nikos Spyrou, @nefeligk_ and our amazing team: @SnchzPedro_, @vlontzos, Yannis Panagakis, @GiorgosPapanas & @STsaftaris! 🙌
Another great piece of work by @RamanDutt4.
Looking to reduce memorization WHILE improving image quality in diffusion models?
Delighted to share our work "𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥" now accepted at WACV '25 (@wacv_official). We show strong results for medical image generation and also establish an initial benchmark!

I am not surprised with this. GPs are overworked (like all the staff of the NHS). AI can help, including systems like ChatGPT and other LLMs but they require the ability to reason and ground findings in guidelines. That's why causal AI is key @chaihubuk

Someone asked me if publishing in AI is getting more competitive. To offer evidence I quickly searched arxiv for keywords that authors typically use (e.g. concurrent work) to signal that similar work recently appeared. See the plots! @UKRI_News @chaihubuk @EPSRC @RAEngNews
It is evident that the use of such keywords is exponentially increasing. I used variations of keywords "concurrent work", "simultaneous work" etc. Did this with @DSDimensions
Thank you @STVNews
