On the #SIGIR2025 list of accepted papers, the word "LLM" appears more frequently than the word "the". I may need to revise my stopword list :) @ACMSIGIR.

RAG - why use "retrieval" in the acronym and not "search"? Then again would we be as excited about doing SAG?.

Many congratulations to @RichardSSutton and Andrew Barto winning the Turning Award. I found myself reading Rich Sutton's brilliant essay "The Bitter Lesson" this morning, what incredible thoughts.
Machines that learn from experience were explored by Alan Turing almost eighty years ago, which makes it particularly gratifying and humbling to receive an award in his name for reviving this essential but still nascent idea.
