Also helpful to revisit lessons from cognitive engineering from Tim and Liz yesterday. On this slide some key scientists for a fun quiz, but also figured in the talk was an excellent reading list. Some concepts were also directly informing our Grey mirror exercise today.

My favorite conference is in New York this year and I am asking what the most constructive response is to the incursions on intellectual freedom and draconian budget cuts. Needless to say I am keeping a close eye on ACM and @umapconf.bsky.social policies & happy to see this recent post for now.
