Excited to share that I will be presenting my 1st year PhD work at #ICLR2026 @iclr_conf next week in Rio 🇧🇷 ❓In-Context Learning (ICL) has been a widely used paradigm to adapt LLMs for a task with a few examples or shots. But does it also work for multimodal examples? 🧵

Excited to share my recent work @ServiceNowRSRCH ! We introduce a new privacy-centric deep research dataset and show models frequently leak enterprise information. However, training with dense _situational_ rewards efficiently learns to jointly optimize performance and privacy
MosaicLeaks is now on arXiv. The Mosaic Effect captures a simple idea: small fragments can look harmless alone, but become revealing in aggregate. Deep research agents can leak enterprise information in exactly this way. 1/9

I would be happy to chat more about this work or additional ideas around distillation and test-time scaling. Huge thanks to my advisors, Mirella Lapata, Amos Storkey, and the amazing people at the School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh 🎓

Do you remember a few years back when the notion of *Inductive Bias* was central to machine learning and AI research? I just wrote: *The Bittersweet Lesson* 😁 The strange case of inductive bias in Transformers docs.google.com/document/d/1… Comments/feedback welcome!

Today, I’m excited to introduce @DeepMind's AlphaDev, published in @Nature. It discovered faster sorting and hashing algorithms which have been released in standard open source libraries. But how does AlphaDev works? 🧵 dpmd.ai/3MMdUmE

Christopher Nolan doesn’t use detailed outlines. Instead, he “draws shapes and diagrams and other structural things.” Like this — the plot map Nolan used for Inception. Here’s a breakdown:

#AlphaCode: a drastic version of seq2seq & search. The Bitter Lesson strikes again, exposing the power of general methods that scale w/ increased compute! Like AlphaStar, an agent outperforms me at something I love, competitive programming 🤣 @codeforces dpmd.ai/Alpha-Code
