What a week at @iclr_conf in Rio 🇧🇷 ! As my first conference, it would have been hard to ask for a better experience 😍. I had the chance to present two papers: - EB-JEPA https://github.com/facebookresearch/eb_jepa: Presented as an Oral 🏅 (top ~3% of papers) at the World Models workshop. - Dual Perspectives on non-Contrastive SSL https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.01028: Presented as a poster. -> I’m already working on two follow-ups to these, so stay tuned for more on that 😉 I was genuinely impressed by the quality of the discussions during the poster sessions. A huge thanks to everyone who stopped by our poster to debate the details, and to those who attended the talk 🙏 I’m leaving Rio with a lot of new research ideas and potential collaborations. This week really made my motivation to keep pushing papers and staying active in the community even stronger for the rest of my PhD 🚀 Another highlight was the socials, specifically the @amilabs mixer. It was exciting to see AMI’s first official public event go so well—it definitely felt like we put AMI “on the map” for a lot of people. Thanks again to my co-authors 🙏: - EB-JEPA: @randall_balestr, @megdrv, @DavidJFan, @garridoq_, @TusharNagarajan, @koustuvsinha, @kevinghstz , Mike Rabbat, @ylecun, @_amirbar - Dual Perspectives on NC-SSL: Jean Ponce, @MichaelArbel, Martial Hebert
