This week, the world's machine learning community got a good look at what digital research conferences will look like in a post-coronavirus future, as ICLR kicked off what's believed to be the first major AI research conference held entirely online. The conference was initially scheduled to be held in person in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) conference is next month and will be partially or entirely digital, while ICML, one of the biggest annual AI research conferences in the world, will be held entirely online in July.

Also this week: An NLP researcher announced plans to host the first-ever AI workshop inside Nintendo's Animal Crossing: New Horizons this July. Artie lead scientist Josh Eisenberg told VentureBeat that more than 200 people have already signed up to watch the day-long event. Animal Crossing: New Horizons launched March 20 and is now the best-selling game in the U.S. and third-best launch of any game in Nintendo history.

One major area of focus for each event is figuring out how to create social connections. That's part of what motivated an Animal Crossing AI workshop.

1. The main character from Animal Crossing: The Movie (yes, that was a thing), joins the battle! Comes with two alts based off of outfits she wore in the film. They are TexID fixed to slots 9 and 10 for the red alt and the green alt respectively. Also comes with a premade uicharacterdb.bin for the people who don't know how to add slots.
2. Animal Crossing: New Horizons on the Nintendo Switch is a game built for social play, but it can also create issues for groups if people looking to share the same island in local multiplayer.

'I was talking to my fiancée about social interactions and quarantine, and some of our deepest interactions with other people over the past couple of months have been via video games, specifically with our friends in Animal Crossing. So I wanted to apply that to work and research to see if we can combine an academic-style workshop with the social interactions of Animal Crossing,' Eisenberg said.

By contrast, the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR) may be the largest AI conference to take place entirely online. Each of the 680 papers was presented by authors via a prerecorded 5- or 15-minute talk. Every video was accompanied by recommendations for similar papers, something one attendee suggested should become the standard for all machine learning research conferences. There was also a paper search bar and visualization showing how each paper relates to each other to group similar works and make it easier to spot major areas of interest.

Many people are pondering the best ways to host digital events. It's something VentureBeat and other media brands are thinking about a lot internally as well. This week, VB ran its annual GamesBeat Summit event entirely online, and Transform, VB's annual AI conference, will take place online in July.

Three members of the VentureBeat AI team 'attended' ICLR to check out innovative research in GANs like U-GAT-IT, NLP like Reformer, and neurosymbolic AI Iike Clevrer, as well as workshops on topics like climate change, affordable health care, and machine translation for African languages.

AI Weekly: Animal Crossing, ICLR, and the future of research conferences online 🔗 https://venturebeat.com/2020/05/. 1 =Description 1.1 Interlude 1.2 Lincoln Loud 1.3 Ai 1.4 Pre-Battle 1.5 Fight 1.6 Results This original name was Villager Vs Lincoln Loud. Because of I rename it cause Shark Biologists is a banned user and the fight is a big big stomp for the KILLAGER. Animal Crossing movie Vs The Loud House, Two kids are gonna take it into the Death Battle Boomstick: hello and welcome to the another episode. We are announcing the first AI workshop hosted in Animal Crossing New Horizons. This is an experiment to see what it feels like to experience a workshop located in Animal Crossing. We would like to build a space for AI researchers to have meaningful interactions, and share their work.

The entire week's worth of ICLR keynote addresses and workshops were pre-recorded and available on the first day of the conference, so attendees could binge watch them or peruse them throughout the week. The advantage of tuning in to a given talk or workshop at its appointed time on the schedule was to get access to live Q&A with speakers and participate in the live chats that accompanied each session.

It appears there's no simple way to recreate the busy floor of a conference poster session today. Instead, each author attended live Q&A sessions with colleagues. A remarkable amount of online feedback was positive, but one ICLR attendee told VentureBeat they found some lack of participation in poster sessions. Since ICLR organizers only chose to convert to an all-digital conference last month, maybe posters sessions attendance improves when attendees know they can schedule time to talk about novel work or meet a favorite research author.

By going entirely digital, ICLR more than doubled participation from 2,700 in 2019 to 5,600 people from nearly 90 countries. There were more than 1,400 speakers and one million page views, and videos were watched more than 100,000 times, organizing committee general chair Sasha Rush wrote in a tweet.

Cutting the expense is another major plus. The Animal Crossing conference will run you the cost of Animal Crossing: New Horizons ($60) and a Nintendo Switch ($299). ICLR was $100 down from the $500 of an in-person ticket cost. Add in the cost of a plane ticket to Ethiopia, lodging, and meals, and the physical conference could have cost upwards of $2,000.

But a challenge for digital events going forward, it seems, is finding ways to connect people.

To try to re-create social gatherings, ICLR held social gatherings inside Zoom to discuss topics ranging from deep generative models to open source tools and risky research. Affinity groups like Latinx in AI and Queer in AI also held digital get-togethers.

A Medium post by a researcher who described social challenges includes comments from Rush, who said creating a flow at the conference akin to the in-person feel of flowing between posters and hallway chats was a challenge. 'I don't think we have totally figured that out yet, but it was fun trying to recreate virtual versions of these interactions,' he said.

In a blog post in February, ICLR organizer Yoshua Bengio — one of the most cited researchers in the world — urged the machine learning community to begin thinking about and experimenting with how to make digital conferences work in digital environments. Bengio, who gave a keynote address at ICLR this week and did live Q&A with Turing Award winner Yann LeCun, first insisted on more digital offerings as a way to cut down on the machine learning community's carbon footprint.

Experiments should begin now, Bengio said, in part to address the challenge of recreating social experiences on par with meeting in person or striking a balance. Some events could combine in-person attendance with digital, while conferences rapidly growing in popularity like NeurIPS may host more regional events.

Invited speakers at the Animal Crossing workshop will present their work on one Animal Crossing island, but to inject impromptu meetings into the process, in between presentations attendees will get Dodo codes to go to coffee break islands to chat with about 5 people. Each island will have themes for people with similar interests, like computer vision or NLP, to discuss workshop subject matter or whatever else comes to mind. If 200 people show up, he expects to need around 50 islands. He said keeping track of attendee Dodo codes for interest-specific islands may be one of the biggest technical challenges to pulling off an Animal Crossing workshop.

Zoom, Twitch, Google Meet, or another service will be used to provide sound for speakers, as well as a way for people to watch presentations inside Animal Crossing whether or not they have the game.

Austin Parker organized the Deserted Island DevOps workshop, a similar event that took place in Animal Crossing Thursday and attracted thousands of viewers on Twitch. He told VentureBeat forming community to do things like organize 'hallway track' side conversations was easy, but tasks like finding moderators in an extremely open community was a challenge.

Another potential challenge: Widespread Nintendo Switch shortages during the global COVID-19 pandemic.

Eisenberg said the Animal Crossing AI workshop (ACAI) is designed to be accessible to people who don't normally attend conferences and aims to be as fun as it is educational. Clownfish voice changer chromebook.

'The draw for these conferences is the networking and the chance social interactions, not the raw knowledge. Like, a 20-minute presentation isn't going to teach you everything about an AI paper that's someone devoted a year of their life on … that's not the point. You're not there to go back to school, you're there to meet people and to talk and to share ideas in a social manner, so I think the social aspect of these things are the most important,' he said.

To be clear: The Animal Crossing AI workshop and ICLR are very different kinds of gatherings. ICLR is organized by a group of machine learning community leaders. The Animal Crossing AI workshop is organized by one guy. But both demonstrate what online AI conferences, and indeed other scientific research communities, may look like.

The format for research conferences online is important because the work of scientific communities in machine learning and fields like health care and life sciences can influence which ideas and methods gain traction.

What ICLR and ACAI have in common is they reflect a collective need to connect and learn.

Nothing replaces being there. The ICLR conference, for example, was originally scheduled to take place in Ethiopia this year, and though African perspectives were put front and center in some conference content, there's no replacing being in that place. Being there also means you can stay in the moment. Keeping locked in for a week of online content can be tough.

It may be a long time before researchers have the pleasure of cramming into hotel conference rooms shoulder to shoulder again, but even if a cure for coronavirus arrives tomorrow, experiments in digital conference events — particularly social aspects — should continue as a way to increase access, lower barriers, and bring more people into the process.

After you arrive on your semi-private island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you might notice plenty of anthropomorphic animals everywhere but that your fellow humans are scarce. That's because the only way to encounter human characters is to use the game's multiplayer features to interact with other players, giving you a space to enjoy island life with your fellow man.

But how do you use Animal Crossing: New Horizon's various multiplayer modes to reconnect with human society?

‌‌Animal Crossing: New Horizonscan be enjoyed with several players at once in three distinct ways: You can manage an island locally with other denizens on your Switch, play with friends in real life using the same console, or join friends online.

How to play Animal Crossing: New Horizons couch co-op or party play

If you only have access to a single Nintendo Switch within your household, this will be your only option. You and up to eight others will carouse about on an island together with one person in charge. If you'd like to play simultaneously, up to four people can play at once.

1. Have the person you believe will be the primary player start the game and play through the tutorial. This part concludes once your character has gone to sleep for the first time. This will cement them as essentially the main player or 'Mayor' of your island. The Mayor player will be the only one given complete access to the island, allowed to do things like build bridges and make major island changing choices.
2. With the Mayor chosen, other users on the same Nintendo Switch can now boot up the game and join the island. Each additional person will require their own house, so make sure there's space on the island to accommodate. If it all becomes too much, note that the Mayor player can kick others off the island at any time.
3. Once at least one additional player makes the island their home, all users, including the Mayor, will unlock an app on their NookPhone called 'Call Islander,' which has a yellow flag icon. This app will be used to invite users who share your island, so you can play together in Party Play mode.
4. After everyone who'd like to play has their characters set up, launch a Party Play session by clicking the Call Islander app and select who you'd like to join you.
5. Each additional user will also require a controller. Animal Crossing: New Horizons can be played using a single Joy-Con, two Joy-Cons, or a Pro Controler.
6. Once everyone is in, the person who launched the session will be considered the Leader and the remaining people will be dubbed followers. Enjoy!

Animal Crossing Movie Characters

Although you're now playing Animal Crossing New Horizons with your friends, there are a few limitations you should remember.

You will all share a screen, so followers will automatically be dragged by the leader, forced to go in the same direction. Followers cannot be left behind! Stragglers will automatically catch up.

Additionally, while the leader has full access to their inventory and regular Animal Crossing gameplay, followers will deal with a fairly addled game — they'll only be able to fish and catch bugs, which will both automatically be stored within Resident Services' recycling bin.

If having a limited selection isn't your jam, the leader can resign from their role by shaking their controller or via the Call Islander App.

Once you're through playing together, the current leader can end the session via the Call Islander App. However, all of this might be a bit of a snooze if you're sick of playing at home and want a more traditional multiplayer experience.

How to unlock multiplayer in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Traditional multiplayer is unlocked by hitting 'Day 2' of gameplay, which happens as the day changes for you in real life after first starting the game. This will unlock Dodo Airlines, the game's multiplayer hub. There you'll be able to enjoy both online and local multiplayer. Unlike Party Play, both modes may be enjoyed with up to eight players. Similar to party play, there are some limitations to what players that join can do — they'll be unable to use the host's Resident Services and most won't have access to their Axe or Shovel tools unless the player is denoted as a Best Friend.

How to play local multiplayer in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Animal Crossing Film

1. Physically meet up with some friends who all also own a Nintendo Switch and a personal copy of Animal Crossing New Horizons.
2. After saying hello to one another, decide which among you will be the host. The host needs to go to Dodo Airlines, informing Orville that they want visitors via local play.
3. Players who intend to join need to go to Dodo Airlines, speak to Orville, and select 'I wanna fly,' 'I wanna visit someone,' and finally 'Local Play.' Your local pal's island should pop up as a destination. Those looking to travel should do so one by one. If too many people attempt to join at once, the system will possibly overload, thus canceling your flight.
4. People may also enter a one-time Dodo code to join.
5. Once you're in, you may unite to take on the world.

How to play online multiplayer in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

1. Similar to Local Multiplayer, this all begins with Orville. Speak to him at Dodo Airlines and inform him that you want visitors, but state it's via 'Online Play.'
2. Friends can join you by speaking to Orville, and selecting 'I wanna fly,' 'I wanna visit someone,' and 'via online play' then selecting your island.
3. When everyone you'd like to play with has joined, speak to Orville again to close off your island so you won't have to entertain more guests.

Note: Multiplayer requires a Nintendo Switch Online membership.

How to add Best Friends in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Unlike normal friends, best friends can use their ax and shovel when visiting one another, meaning they can chop down trees, dig for fossils, and plant flora. You can begin adding best friends in a few easy steps.

1. Become friends on Nintendo Switch
2. After unlocking multiplayer, play with somebody you'd like to become a best friend.
3. In your NookPhone's Best Friends list app(which unlocks when you first use multiplayer), send them a Best Friend request.
4. If they accept, you've got a brand new best friend!

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is now available on Nintendo Switch.
