Stephan Geering (mainly on Bluesky)

It's happening. I am now spending most of my time over at Bluesky. Keeping my fingers crossed that the network effect will do its bit to bring most accounts I am following here over to Bluesky. You can find me under the same handle @stephangeering.

Hey, remaining privacy, security and AI governance friends. Isn't it high time to leave this place? Bluesky is a much nicer place and you can help build up what's still a (too) small community.

Ok, folks, seriously: What are you still doing here?

Reminder: I permanently moved over to Bluesky which is most definitely a better home.

For Science Magazine, I wrote about "The Metaphors of Artificial Intelligence". The way you conceptualize AI systems affects how you interact with them, do science on them, and create policy and apply laws to them. Hope you will check it out! science.org/doi/full/10.11…
