Thanks to Fen and his team for hosting this – and all participants! This was wonderful – looking fwd to have you in Berlin in early 2024!

And: @Milieux_news at Concordia, and Montreal more broadly, is really a quite wonderful and impressive place. I hope I have the chance to make up for my cancelled (there was a pandemic!) fellowship research stay in Montreal #unstable23

Finaly, Lucy Suchman with a fascinating close reading of a video ad by Palantir on their AIP military operation system, with a focus on the underlying imaginaries. Interesting (and quite frightening, actually) to see that the text-based chat interface (just like #ChatGPT) is the dominant mode of operation here as well #unstable23
