We updated our ICLR dataset (see with blind 2025 submissions to @iclr_conf. Over 10k submissions this year. I like how this embedding (SBERT + tSNE) shows which ML areas are old-school and which ones are currently booming.

NeurIPS @NeurIPSConf requires to include the "Paper Checklist" into camera-ready papers, including (!) "Guidelines" bullet point lists which are *identical in all papers* and take ~5 pages. Isn't it ugly & useless?. I'd like at least to delete the guidelines, but PCs told me no.

A bit surprised by all the debate around yesterday's Nobel Prize. It is well known that all science is either physics or stamp collecting. What Hopfield and Hinton did is clearly *not* stamp collecting. Ergo it is physics.
