It's highly unlikely that Michael Brennan will be the only 24-year-old man to take his shirt off in public in New Orleans on Thursday, but he will be the only one to do so who has a PGA Tour victory under his belt. During the opening round of this week's Zurich Classic, a team event on Tour played at TPC Louisiana, Brennan and teammate Johnny Keefer began on the back nine and got things rolling early, getting to 4-under through their opening six holes.

There's a lot of buzz around the upcoming UFC Freedom 250 UFC Freedom 250, the UFC event set to take place at the White House, but right now a huge chunk of the event's setup is sitting somewhere you probably wouldn't expect: Pennsylvania Amish country. Before moving down to the sunny, state-income-tax-free state of Florida, I was born and raised in south central Pennsylvania, a place with rolling hills and horse and buggies, and where people order scrapple because they want to and not because they're being dared to. Recently, a giant metal dome popped up in the area near Lititz, PA -- just outside of Lancaster and about an hour and a half west of Philadelphia -- that left residents pretty confused. I mean, it's not like the Amish suddenly revamped their barn designs.

When it comes to sports superstitions, they don't make them much more militant than teams and players in the Stanley Cup Playoffs . Everyone on the team has to grow playoff beards, and if the team ate at a certain restaurant then had a great game, guess where you're eating for the next two months during home games? Hell, even Sidney Crosby has been wearing the same jockstrap for 20 years because of how superstitious he was (okay, that was TMI, I apologize). Suffice it to say, teams can get a little paranoid when it comes to luck and bad omens in the playoffs, which is why the Ottawa Senators had to act accordingly after their team fell down 0-2 against the Carolina Hurricanes.

A new study of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS led by the University of Michigan shows that its water has a remarkably high content of deuterium. This form of hydrogen is comparatively less abundant in our solar system, enabling researchers to glean new insights about other planetary processes at work in our galaxy.

At 'AI Coachella,' Stanford Students Line Up to Learn From Silicon Valley Royalty

WIRED

CS 153 has gone viral on the Palo Alto campus--and on X. Not everyone is happy about it. As thousands of influencers descended on southern California earlier this month for the annual Coachella Music Festival, a very Silicon Valley program dubbed "AI Coachella" was taking shape a few hundred miles north in Palo Alto. The class, CS 153, is one of Stanford's buzziest offerings this semester, and like the music festival, it features a star-studded lineup of celebrities--in this case, not pop artists, but Big Tech CEOs. The course is co-taught by Anjney Midha, a former Andreessen Horowitz general partner, and Michael Abbott, Apple's former VP of engineering for cloud services.


Optimal Sample Complexity of M-wise Data for Top-K Ranking

Neural Information Processing Systems

We explore the top-K rank aggregation problem in which one aims to recover a consistent ordering that focuses on top-K ranked items based on partially revealed preference information. We examine an M-wise comparison model that builds on the Plackett-Luce (PL) model where for each sample, M items are ranked according to their perceived utilities modeled as noisy observations of their underlying true utilities. As our result, we characterize the minimax optimality on the sample size for top-K ranking. The optimal sample size turns out to be inversely proportional to M. We devise an algorithm that effectively converts M-wise samples into pairwise ones and employs a spectral method using the refined data. In demonstrating its optimality, we develop a novel technique for deriving tight $\ell_\infty$ estimation error bounds, which is key to accurately analyzing the performance of top-K ranking algorithms, but has been challenging. Recent work relied on an additional maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) stage merged with a spectral method to attain good estimates in $\ell_\infty$ error to achieve the limit for the pairwise model. In contrast, although it is valid in slightly restricted regimes, our result demonstrates a spectral method alone to be sufficient for the general M-wise model. We run numerical experiments using synthetic data and confirm that the optimal sample size decreases at the rate of 1/M. Moreover, running our algorithm on real-world data, we find that its applicability extends to settings that may not fit the PL model.


Do you need to worry about Mythos, Anthropic's computer-hacking AI?

New Scientist

Do you need to worry about Mythos, Anthropic's computer-hacking AI? A powerful AI kept from public access because of its ability to hack computers with impunity is making headlines around the world. But what is Mythos, does it really represent a risk and might it even be used to improve cybersecurity? Anthropic's Project Glasswing aims to improve online security The past few weeks have brought apparently alarming news of Mythos, an AI that can identify cybersecurity flaws in a matter of moments, leaving operating systems and software vulnerable to hackers. The cybersecurity community is now beginning to get a better sense of how Mythos may change the face of cybersecurity - and not necessarily for the worse.



Spectrally-normalized margin bounds for neural networks

Neural Information Processing Systems

This paper presents a margin-based multiclass generalization bound for neural networks that scales with their margin-normalized spectral complexity: their Lipschitz constant, meaning the product of the spectral norms of the weight matrices, times a certain correction factor. This bound is empirically investigated for a standard AlexNet network trained with SGD on the mnistand cifar10datasets, with both original and random labels; the bound, the Lipschitz constants, and the excess risks are all in direct correlation, suggesting both that SGD selects predictors whose complexity scales with the difficulty of the learning task, and secondly that the presented bound is sensitive to this complexity.
