Previous works address this problem under the tenuous assumption that only a single shortcut exists in the training data. Real-world images are... Language-Driven Representation Learning for Robotics Recent work in visual representation learning for robotics demonstrates the viability of learning from large video datasets of humans performing everyday tasks. Leveraging methods such as masked autoencoding and contrastive learning, these representations exhibit strong transfer to policy learning... Navigating the Grey Area: Expressions of Overconfidence and Uncertainty in Language Models Despite increasingly fluent, relevant, and coherent language generation, major gaps remain between how humans and machines use language. We argue that a key dimension that is missing from our understanding of language models (LMs) is the model's ability to interpret and generate expressions of...
