A lovely little treat tonight, witnessing a great version of Stravinsky’s The Rake’s Progress at the Palais Garnier. The Paris Opera is stunning even just walking around, let alone enjoying a show!

I may wander off, but I’ll never be far from my academic community! It’s great to be back at #2024APPAM! We’re technically “in DC” this year, at National Harbor! Right now, the @appam.bsky.social Awards and Presidential Address!

I’ve walked a lot already in Buenos Aires, kinda used to the wild murals, but this one is truly wild. It reads “Sacred Sons of Argentina” featuring 2 actual Argies: Leo Messi, The Pope, and decidedly Irish-American comedy icon Conan O’Brien in the middle. Some confused looks, most just ignore it.

Loved hearing Deirdre Mulligan, US’s principal deputy CTO, bring up multistakeholderism, interoperability and governance across policy and technology as three crucial pieces of how to think of the AI future and how to govern it! Great convo at the Mozilla AI event #mozillameetup

#ICANN78 kicked off earlier today in Hamburg, 25 years after the first meeting! It will be a very packed week, and hopefully a productive one, too!

Last night’s NYC Carly Rae Jepsen show ended after 3 songs because of⚡️! A few hours later she put together a small show for 450 folks in a 150 person venue! Plus a rescheduled show today: an entirely joyful affair for everyone involved! Two and a quarter shows for the price of 1!
