Was the whole blogpost an excuse to make this meme? Perhaps.

We must choose both the tokens AND their order.
A joint distribution can be factored into a product of conditionals in any order, but this choice determines the available context at each step. Thus, some orders are easier to model in practice (arxiv.org/abs/2502.06768)

Come chat about tokenization and trends in the treatment of non-sequential data!

New blogpost on tokenizing non-sequential data!

Language has sequential structure, which gave rise to the next-token prediction paradigm of LLMs. But we increasingly use LLMs for data without inherent order (e.g. images, molecules, sets). What does “next token” mean here?

TL;DR: poster today at 3:15pm, P3-#1109!

Have you ever benchmarked your method on QM9, MD17, OC20, or ModelNet? It turns out that the 3D orientations of point clouds in commonly used datasets are highly non-random. How did we prove this and why should you care? 🧵

Will be presenting this work on Saturday at 3:15pm local time (on behalf of all my co-authors)! Come chat about generalizing positional encodings for selectively breaking model invariances :)

Excited to share that ASEN, our framework towards equivariant foundation models, is accepted to #ICLR2026!
