We’re proud to announce the launch of AutumnBench, an open-source benchmark developed on our Autumn platform. This benchmark, led by our MARA team, provides a novel platform for evaluating world modeling and causal reasoning in both human and artificial intelligence.

New work out from our Collaborative Intelligent Systems group
New preprint! tl;dr — We ran around late at night to record wild rats in NYC and figured out how to quantify their behavior and environment. 🧵 w/ Dima Batenkov, @zamakany, @e_mackevicius

We’re also hosting a happy hour social for workshop participants and others interested in what we’re working on. If you’re at ICML and would like to join us *July 18th, 6-9pm*, RSVP here:
luma.com
Join us for an evening of conversation, networking, and some well-deserved drinks and bites! We're excited to bring together two ICML Workshops for this event:…

We’re making the @BasisOrg organisation document public today. It’s less a charter and more a design doc—our spec for why a new kind of technology and research organisation is needed, and how to build it. (link below)

Enjoyed talking with @ellisk_kellis about model discovery, program synthesis, Project MARA, and @BasisOrg . I only just realised the full video was on YouTube already 😅. Please check it out (link below) and share it with anyone you think might be interested (we're hiring!)
In a recent discussion, Prof. @ellisk_kellis and Dr. @ZennaTavares of @BasisOrg explored pathways toward artificial intelligence capable of more human-like learning, focusing on acquiring abstract knowledge from limited experience through active interaction. 🧵👇

With Basis co-founder @ZennaTavares and collaborator/advisor @ellisk_kellis
We just dropped a fun panel discussion with @fchollet @ZennaTavares and @ellisk_kellis on program synthesis. This was a powerhouse conversation with three legends in the field, enjoy.

With @ARIA_research, we’ve started a moonshot to automate robotics. We're building reasoning systems that design robots—hardware and controllers together—that are more dextrous and specialised to their environments. This is like the most sci-fi thing one could work on.
Basis is proud to be an R&D creator in @ARIA_research's Robot Dexterity programme, led by Programme Director Jenny Read @jcaread. Our team is developing a rational automated design agent that can perform end-to-end co-design of robot morphologies with their controllers. (1/3)

I have never had the time to write about them on FreakTakes, but @BasisOrg is a BBN-shaped organization I’m very excited about! Anyone interested in pursuing cutting-edge AI problems in a team laser-focused on a technical vision a bit outside the mainstream in SV should apply
