Multiple junior researchers have asked for guidance on being supportive yet are worried about repercussions. So I wrote this F.A.Q. You must survive. We need you in the fight for the next few decades! Make choices accordingly (feel free to DM) chiinhawaii.info

📣I’ll be recruiting graduate students for Fall 2024, and am actively looking for research interns and students at different levels! Interested in Machine Learning and Sensing, Ubiquitous Computing and Interaction Technologies - let's connect!

Visited @cornell_tech today, got a great tour of their robotics labs, tested their car simulator and got to see the results of the summer projects!

@acmdis2023 was a blast! Grateful for so many new connections and good conversations. Heading over to Washington DC and New York next 🚌

Today I will be presenting our paper on Sensing Care in instrumented spaces at @acmdis2023, on behalf of my lovely co-authors @robmakesthings @aditi_suranaa @l_youngsil and yuxi from @Dcode_EU. You can read the work online here: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/35…

@boardman_claire @acmdis2023 Thanks! Will make sure that it’s available online after DIS :)

@GrapeMind @acmdis2023 That looks interesting! Could you share a copy of your poster after the conference?

Very happy with my DC poster for @acmdis2023 💃Come by and have a look at all the neat projects we got the chance to present the last two days!

What a wonderful #DIS2023 doctoral consortium with such inquisitive students and faculty mentors! Check out their posters during the main conference! (Apologies photo doesn’t capture all participants) @corina_sas @chelsea00ny @acmdis2023

„Plans are useful fictions“ @katta_spiel is kicking off a great conversation around how to get this PhD manuscript done at the @acmdis2023 doctoral consortium that reminds us we are all just humans 💙

Today starts what seems to be a promising trip to Pittsburgh. First plane already cancelled once! 💃🏽 #DIS2023

Just got into Pittsburgh, looking forward to explore a bit before attending my very first #DIS2023. I will attend the DC, present a poster AND a paper - hoping for many, many good convos 💃

📣 Looking to hire researchers for new projects on the societal impacts of generative AI! Reach out with your CV to hello@digitalfutureslab.in if you’re interested! #jobopening #jobopportunity #research #GenAI

Two extraordinary opportunities come along at once @eca_edinburgh one to work with @melissaterras in building the next big thing ‘Humanities Informatics’ and the other to extend the brilliant with Stefan Bilbao and colleagues in ‘Audio Machine Learning’: elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

Looks interesting! DCODE supervisor @quillis also has a section on privacy paradox. "The state of privacy is not a paradox, just an impossible state of affairs rendering the individual helpless." #WeAreDCODE #privacyparadox

I will be in New York at the end of July. Who should I meet, to which events should I go and which labs/groups/cool places should I visit :)? Happy for any kind of connection to fellow researchers, designers and ethics enthusiasts!

#DIS2023 Conference Schedule is live! (note there may be updates) programs.sigchi.org/dis/2023 Authors, check out when you are presenting Also, as you prepare your presentations, check out the fantastic guide to creating Accessible Presentations and Videos dis.acm.org/2023/creating-…

We had great time at @Nordes_conf talking about our research and meeting other design researchers. And we love our doctoral consortium booklets! Check our insta stories for some highlights! #WeAreDCODE #rethinkdesign #H2020 #MSCA #ResearchImpactEU #nordes2023

This may be the "first (comprehensive) regulation on #ArtificialIntelligence" but it's certainly not the first regulation that *applies* to #AI. In the wake of this news, let's not forget that there's no #AI exemption to the laws on the books. europarl.europa.eu/news/en/headli…

Finishing @Nordes_conf with a great discussion following the presentation of my project right in the morning! Thanks to everyone who brought smart questions to the circle.

@Nordes_conf Damn! I saw, thanks for picking it up anyway ;)
