Definitely consider applying! This program is open to UGs at any college/univ — there is a stipend and room is covered!
You can work with myself, @jerryzli and Andrea Coladangelo in @uwcse or many of our great colleagues across @UW !

A guess: The uncertainty in science funding in the US will -already- have a huge affect on PhD admissions for engineering schools this cycle, even before funding reductions hit (if they do). I expect historically low class sizes in CS PhD programs. Not good for US AI leadership.

The CFP Championship game should be the Rose Bowl, always and forever. It is just too iconic to pass up
I'm proposing a moratorium on using the Aaronson-Kuperberg oracle in any future quantum query separations. It is just too powerful and not pushing our query complexity research in the right direction!

I'm very excited to be giving a keynote talk at the @ClimateChangeAI 🌎 🌐 workshop at #NeurIPS2024 on Sunday. My talk, "Where methods meet impact in ML for environmental monitoring" is at 10am PST -- see the post below for information on how to watch the live stream for free!
We're already excited for our #NeurIPS2024 workshop this Sunday! Our program includes keynotes by @Hut_chin_son, @SashaMTL and @rolf_comma_e - and the whole workshop will be livestreamed for free on our website.
Check out details & the schedule here: climatechange.ai/events/neur…
Andrea Coladangelo, @jerryzli, and I are recruiting multiple PhD students to study quantum computing theory at the University of Washington (@UW, @uwcse)!
Applications should be made through the CS department PhD app (deadline Dec 15): cs.washington.edu/academics/…

Excited to share this new paper with Jack O'Connor and @_nickspoon! We improve our ZK-PCP construction to cover all of NEXP (with exponential proofs), scale it to NP with polynomial proofs, and obtain O(1)-locality via composition--yielding a ZK analogue of the PCP theorem. 1/3

Commuting local Hamiltonians are used as a stepping stone for many of quantum’s big open questions, like finding qPCP’s and sampling Gibbs states. Despite this, we know almost nothing about them.
In arxiv.org/abs/2410.10495, Woo and I develop some tools for analyzing them! 🧵
Definitely 2005+ bias as I wasn't old enough/alive to remember seasons before then. So I only picked 32 players ...
but these are the players I've really enjoyed watching
We are looking for a new reading group book on an advanced quantum computation/complexity theory topic.
Any suggestions?
