Presentation of the data is as important as the data itself.

Oh the irony of a poster on diffusion-based vector graphics generation from Adobe not being printed #cvpr

After two decades of social media and digital communications research, I have come to the conclusion that profound irony is at work in the naming of platforms. The Trickster is alive and well online: Slack is tense. Facebook is dehumanizing. X doesn't mark the spot. Instagram…

Lots of AI opinions being shared on twitter these days - at @AIObjectives we're mapping the discourse. Good news - there is much more consensus than disagreement when we listen beyond only the loudest voices. ai.objectives.institute/blog/mapping-t…

I gave GPT-4 a budget of $100 and told it to make as much money as possible. I'm acting as its human liaison, buying anything it says to. Do you think it'll be able to make smart investments and build an online business? Follow along 👀

Censorship ≠ the solution. 👀many unknowns w/private #twitter I hope @elonmusk leans into non-content based safety solutions. Solutions exist. It's time to build them. Better social media=safety systems that scale, for diverse languages & honor our autonomy/dignity.

We are excited to start our first mirror crowdfund for @fred_laloux’s new project: THE WEEK. After "Reinventing Organizations", he wants to reinvent how we move past apathy and mobilize for the climate emergency. We can all be part of it. allforclimate.mirror.xyz/crowdfunds/0x9…

Signal tried to use Instagram ads to display the data Facebook collects about you and sells access to. Facebook wasn't into the idea, and shut down our account instead: signal.org/blog/the-insta…

If you have any kind of data scientist or IT person in your life, be gentle with them right now. If you find them rocking in the corner howling "Excel is a spreadsheet, not a database!", just bring them a cup of tea and a biscuit and leave them alone for a while.

in the last week in california, we've had: * raging wildfires and ash raining from the sky in cities * 100x increased odds of an earthquake * rolling blackouts during a record heatwave * a rare lightning storm * something called a "fire tornado"??? * the usual pandemic stuff

It's not enough to practice just one unprotected left turn. On a typical day, the Cruise AV fleet safely executes 1,400 of them in San Francisco, generating enough data for engineers to analyze and apply learnings to code they develop for other tricky maneuvers


People ask why Cruise Automation is testing our autonomous vehicles in SF. Answer: driving here is hard for humans, let alone robots. #AutonomousVehicles #SanFrancisco #drivingishard #trafficisworse #fancymaneuvers

We made substantial improvements in safety and ride quality during 2018. So proud of the Cruise team for getting us to this point. 2019 is going to be an exciting year! youtube.com/watch?v=cJQLEE…

lolol putting your airgapped machine in a faraday cage is not enough, you must also surround it with sheets of mu-metal cyber.bgu.ac.il/advanced-cyber… [pdf]

I want to assure you there are no banned words at CDC. We will continue to talk about all our important public health programs.
