What Does the Logo Mean?

The logo was designed when it was the Oxford Brookes group, so it’s an Ox on a Brook. It has one eye as it needed computer vision. It is also an Ox on a Ford. It is also a Taurus, in honour of Professor Philippus Torrus.

What is TVG?

No one knows what it stands for, but here are some suggestions…

• The Verified Genius – safety + reasoning vibes.
• Tensor Volcano Generator – dangerous, powerful, probably unstable.
• Totally Valid Guesses – a.k.a. how LLMs reason.
• Theory vs. Gravity – dramatic science crossover.

• Thinking Very Generally – broad AI ambition.

• Turtles, Vortices, Galaxies – infinite regress, physics, cosmos.
• Tea, Variables, Gin – the Oxford lab essentials.
• The Vibe Gurus – for when science is a feeling.
• Thoroughly Vague Gibberish – what LLMs sometimes output.

• Toxic Voxel Gremlins – experimental hazards, do not feed.

• Too Vision-y, Gone – farewell to computer vision.
• Torr’s Villainous Gang – comic-book energy.
• The Vast Guessers – nod to scaling laws + LLMs.
• Thinkers Versus GPUs – the eternal struggle.

• Towards Valuable Good – surprisingly wholesome.

• Tachyon Violence Generator – faster than light, slightly illegal.
• Turbulent Vacuum Goo – cutting-edge physics, don’t touch it.
• Thermodynamically Very Gross – entropy always wins.

• Tyrannical Vector Goblins – the real reason models misbehave.

• Totally Vibes-Generated – no reasoning, only vibes.
• Token Vomit Generator – raw LLM realism.
• Trying Various Gaslights – safety red-flag, but on-brand.

• Tragically Very Gaussian – your model’s distribution, always.

• Tea Versus Gravity – the real research problem.
• Tutorials, Vacations, Grants – the eternal academic cycle.
• Too Victorian, Guv’nor – historically accurate AI.

• Tweed-Vest Gangsters – sharp fits, sharper maths.

• Thanos’ Variable Gauntlet – one snap = half the GPUs gone.
• Twerking Vector Gradients – convergence, but make it dance.
• Toad Veneration Guild – amphibian-aligned intelligence.
• Totally Venomous Goose – the new lab mascot.
