Excited to announce the launch of AI Builders Academy! Our mission is simple: to teach the next generation not just how to use AI, but how to understand and build it. We believe every child deserves the opportunity to become an AI creator, not just a consumer. aiclass.academy/ Educating the First AI-Native Generation.

Grateful to UF News for covering our research! AI with attitude? Engineering professor explores how AI performs in high-risk situations news.ufl.edu/2026/10/llm-ris…

Excited to share that our paper “Benchmarking Risk Attitudes of Large Language Models” has been accepted to #NeurIPS2026! 🎉 Congrats to co-first authors Bowen Sun & Rui Min, and many thanks to collaborators Ryan Wang & Yang Ye! #LLM #AI #DecisionMaking

Interviewed by WCJB ABC20 TV today about our FLL team winning 1st place in state championship and going to the World championship! Cool experience and thank you @WCJB20 !

My 12 yo son recreated a video game (Neighbors) in one week. He taught himself Blender, Unity, and C# from online tutorials, and programmed the NPC AI himself. He said free ChatGPT wasn’t helpful for coding, so he did it on his own. Check it out: youtu.be/AjxtPCzL8Ec?si=b4Di…

New paper out in Scientific Reports: “Opportunities, Challenges & Roadmap for Humanoid Robots in Construction.”nature.com/articles/s41598-0… We outline a 10-year path for humanoids in construction.

I know Adam!!

Can LLMs pick the right priority for UAVs in urban winds? Yes! Our new IEEE Access paper “LLM-Driven Pareto-Optimal Multi-Mode RL for Adaptive UAV Navigation” shows 16% faster flights, 50% fewer collisions, 18% energy savings. ieeexplore.ieee.org/document… #AI #Drones #RL #UAV

Grateful to the Buildings Best Paper Award committee for recognizing our work! 🎉 Congrats to my students 👏 for advancing LLM-driven sequence planning that helps robots adapt to complex, dynamic construction tasks. Proud of the team! 🚀 #ConstructionRobotics #AI

Honored and humbled to receive the Steve and Wendy Blum Professorship. Deepest thanks to Mr. & Mrs. Blum for their extraordinary generosity and vision. This recognition reflects the efforts of many colleagues, students, and collaborators. @UF @UFESSIE

Interviews ongoing with ABC/WCJB.

Our new paper, "AI Generations: from AI 1.0 to AI 4.0," is out now! We map the evolution of AI from Information AI (1.0) to Agentic (2.0), Physical (3.0), and a speculative look at Conscious AI (4.0). A 70-year journey of algorithms, data, and compute. frontiersin.org/journals/art…

It’s only been four months and 14 days.

Received this in my email this morning. A top 0.5% scholar 👓
