SUMMARY:UCR AI Research Brown Bag Presentation Series
LOCATION:Orbach Library (Science Library) Room 240
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a low-stakes\, supportive space to support and eng
 age with UCR graduate students’ research progress across the UCR communit
 y. This event is hosted by the UCR Library\, RAISE@UCR\, GradSuccess\, an
 d the XCITE Center for Teaching and Learning.\n\nThis is an informal semi
 nar series spotlighting AI research from UCR graduate students. This is a
  great opportunity to engage with emerging scholarship\, ask questions\, 
 and connect with researchers pushing the boundaries of artificial intelli
 gence.\n\nPizza and drinks will be provided while supplies last! No need 
 to bring your own lunch/brown bag.\n\nPresentations:\n\nJust Do It!? Comp
 uter-Use Agents Exhibit Blind Goal-Directedness - A Safety Study on Compu
 ter-Use Agents with Microsoft and NVIDIA\n\nErfan Shayegani\, PhD student
 \, Computer Science\n\nIn this talk Erfan will talk about adversarial att
 acks on multi-modal language models. Computer-Use Agents (CUAs) are an in
 creasingly deployed class of agents that take actions on GUIs to accompli
 sh user goals. In this paper\, we show that CUAs consistently exhibit Bli
 nd Goal-Directedness: a bias to pursue goals regardless of feasibility\, 
 safety\, reliability\, or context. The paper has been accepted to ICLR 20
 26 with Microsoft Research.\n\nFrom JWST to Roman: A Physics-Informed AI 
 Super-Resolution Framework for Grism Spectroscopy\n\nAryana Haghjoo\, Ph.
 D. student\, Astronomy\n\nThe Roman Space Telescope's High Latitude Wide 
 Area Survey will deliver grism spectroscopy at R~460–900 for roughly ten 
 million em\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/events/60f11a43-65e7-4468-b646-6ded95b
