Shoutout to my wonderful collaborators - Mariana Castro, Diego Roman, Cynthia Baeza, and WI teachers - whose work on translanguaging theory and bilingual pedagogy lays out the foundation necessary to start envisioning ethical use of multilingual and multicultural AI in classrooms.

We might be moving into a new era of AI "DOGE-ness" but the science of AI hasn't changed. It can still perpetuate bias and amplify discrimination and we can't executive-order that away no matter how hard we try. Join the statement by hundreds of scientists here.

Just shared this with the data visualization class I’m teaching this semester — it’s a really great demonstration of how little things change the entire visualization and the narratives we can tell with it!
Dishonest charts are coming from all directions, and they're only going to hit harder. Unless we push back. So, an interactive guide: Defense Against Dishonest Charts flowingdata.com/projects/dis...
Defense Against Dishonest Charts
This is a guide to protect ourselves and to preserve what is good about turning data into visual things.
