A concept paper on how agent systems can support real scientific work in the lab.

Still ran into the usual [hallucinations, random loops, repetitive tool use, slow responses] on my pc. Server access is still key.
Once resolved, I can see small academic teams using these to level the playing field in the “publish or perish” environment.
Excited to announce I'll be teaching NACS 645: Cognitive Science next semester at UMD! This PhD-level course covers computations, representations, decision-making, and more. Can't wait to get started with our amazing grad students!
I know I will.
AI agents to design [tools, roles, workflows, agentic collab]; multi-agent systems to run them. No doubt individuals/companies will rely on this kind of setup - once we downsize the need for massive parameters and RAM.

Thrilled to announce I'll be giving a lecture on the formation of beliefs and trust in the world during the Ecole douteuse.
Been experimenting with AI agent systems lately (smolagents, llamaindex, langgraph, crewAI). The ecosystem is getting much more mature, tools for easy implementation are there (massive improvements over 2023 LangChain/Auto-GPT), ability to run python is insane.
Democracies are vulnerable to misinformation. Prevailing interventions emphasize truth detection. L. Geay, @carocharp.bsky.social and I argue we ought to strengthen people’s ability to estimate claims plausibility and to calibrate their confidence under uncertainty.

Comment la confiance en soi nous expose à la #désinformation. C’est la conclusion que tirent les chercheurs Jean-Claude Dreher et @guigonv.bsky.social. Pour la #Semainedelapresse, pensons contre nous et vérifions si nos certitudes ne sont pas écrans de fumée. www.ouest-france.fr/leditionduso...
