In the Fall, I gave a public lecture on AI and Machine Learning for the Academy of Science in Denmark. I finally finished an English version. The video introduces the basic ideas of AI and ML for any audience with a high school background or math interest. Please share!

On behalf of Raghu Meka: Students at US universities can apply for travel support to attend STOC 2025 Theory Fest (June 23-27, Prague CZ). The deadline for applications is April 27th. Link in comment.
Huge congratulations to my amazing student Yeyuan Chen (+co-author Zihan Zhang of OSU advised by Zeyu Guo) for being awarded the STOC 2025 Best Student Paper Award! Their monumental result proves that explicit Reed-Solomon codes can correct more errors than previously known:

An almost tight understanding of AdaBoost's generalisation, a proof that Majority-of-3-AdaBoosts is an optimal weak-to-strong learner in expectation and better margin-generalisation for voting classifiers.
New preprint. And as mentioned yesterday, Mikael is on the job market 😉
And Mikael presenting his second student paper at ALT’25 💪
Arthur about to present our paper on sample compression schemes at ALT’25. He is also on the job market and is amazing as well!
Proud advisor 🥹 Mikael presenting his single-authored paper at ALT’25. He is an amazing student and is on the post doc job market (hint, hint 😉)
New paper: Simulating Time With Square-Root Space
people.csail.mit.edu/rrw/time-vs-...
It's still hard for me to believe it myself, but I seem to have shown that TIME[t] is contained in SPACE[sqrt{t log t}].
To appear in STOC. Comments are very welcome!
