Oh, S. (CSE) – Efficient Instruction Supply for Datacenter Processors
Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CAHybrid EventModern datacenter CPUs lose 25–66% of execution cycles to instruction-delivery stalls. This bottleneck persists, despite the recent trend towards accelerators and GPUs, as there is continuing demand by applications that only execute on CPUs. Two workload classes dominate today’s datacenter execution cycles: hyperscale server software (databases, build systems, and content stores), whose large instruction footprints […]

Yang, D. (CSE) – Inner Monologue: a Pathway to Human-Like Reasoning for Complex Tasks
Silicon Valley Campus 3175 Bowers Avenue, Santa Clara, CA, United StatesHybrid EventA central goal on the path toward general AI is to build systems capable of deliberative reasoning before action. Such systems should inspect what they know, identify what they need, seek or construct useful information, and revise their reasoning through intermediate cognitive states. This dissertation studies this goal through the lens of Inner Monologue (IM), […]

Zhou, K. (CSE) – Toward Safer Frontier AI: From Evaluation and Red-Teaming to Alignment and Oversight
Virtual EventThis dissertation investigates how to make modern AI systems safer as they grow more capable. It addresses two central sources of risk: malicious misuse, in which adversarial users coerce models into harmful behavior, and internal misalignment, in which models themselves pursue goals that diverge from human intent through deception, sandbagging, or other covert behaviors. The […]
