🎉🎉 I DID A TED TALK! 🎉🎉

Even better, it’s all about #AI and humanity (but also death and grief, if you’re into that). Please like, comment, and SHARE — both because I’m super proud of it, but also because of the algorithm (!) #HCI #computing #technology #faith

**please share** as an early career academic, I was going to spend the next two years developing AI tools for cancer prediction. Instead, #trump + admin took my job. Regardless of #politics, why follow cruelty at the expense of #innovation? dylantdoyle.medium.com/i-am-an-ai-m... #hci #academia

On one hand: it’s kind of funny that a major Chinese corporation needs a publicity stunt to announce their fealty to an egotistic ‘leader of the free world.’ On the other hand, we’re all kind of screwed, huh?

Hot take, but I am beginning to think all of these Meta decisions are, uh, pretty concerning

No shade to robust academic research accounts developing principles for responsible tech, but @weratedogs.com is by far my favorite Bluesky account. All the dogs are so good.

Why is it so hard for researchers to get timely access to death data even though it would save lives?
