Goedemorgen! Mijn naam is Ramona Negrón (@ramonanegron.bsky.social), postdoc bij het KITLV in Leiden. Ik houd me vooral bezig met vroegmoderne koloniale slavernijgeschiedenis. Deze week deel ik hier wat mij zoal bezighoudt. Waar zouden jullie graag meer over willen weten?

i feel like one of the disappointments of current tech is that it frees you from mental tasks only to realize you weren’t going to do anything better with that mental processing

One of the reasons I opted for a PhD instead of a more traditional path in tech is to have access to, what I perceived were, more complex problems

Technology and knowledge is incredibly fragile. Delete a couple of hard drives and most of what we know how to do is gone. Right?

From experience: #AI and #DataViz researchers need advanced domain understanding before building effective tools. Why not empower domain experts to create their own tools and tackle their research questions directly? Programming languages are an example of this idea, but can be too complex

Epistemology and entanglements: two words that stayed with me from today’s very refreshing talk by @gotdairyya.bsky.social at TU Eindhoven. It’s always good to take a conceptual step back to find opportunities for improving and strengthening #dataviz practice 💪🏻 go check Derya’s papers to learn more!

We are witnessing a dramatic increase in the size of LLMs like ChatGPT. No one knows how big is big enough. Shouldn’t we instead try to attain human-level performance while keeping the model as concise as a human brain? How big is the human brain, actually (in LLM terms)?

Is anyone aware of work that performs a user evaluation of the scalability and performance of spaghetti plots for ensemble analysis tasks?
Intuitively, with many lines they become too cluttered and their effectiveness reduces. But haven’t found a reference for this …

Nice collection and perspective on some of this year’s #ieeevis papers
It's time for the IEEE Vis conference. I'm not in Oz this year, but the paper listing is online ieeevis.org/year/2023/in.... Authors are pretty good about putting their papers on arxiv ; I've been downloading and following along.
