It's my birthday today! I'm now 41-years-old 🥳 🎉 🎂

And I gave myself a gift: freedom.

My Twitter account is deleted. I'm done with it forever. There is no going back.

Sayonara, Elon!

Hey Python people, let me know you’re out there. :)
Make the net weird again. Hand write sites like it’s the 90s. Pick interesting domain names and make fan sites or random knowledge known to everyone. Don’t monetize anything. Spearhead new protocols like Gemini. Make mods for games on your site. Make FAQs for obscure games no one knows about. Make public software services available to anyone. Make a news site about a really random subject. Create music in all kinds of different formats. Most of all, do it because you want to!

Everything ever observed - all normal matter - stars, planets, me & you, the very screen you’re looking at - makes up <5% of the universe.

The other 95% is a combination of “dark matter” & “dark energy.” Think of it as a big question mark.

That means we still have so much to discover ✨

Ethics in AI research papers and articles

This is my obsessively curated list of research papers and articles on ethics in AI that I have been collecting over the years. Ones in bold are those that I refer back to and found particularly useful. Let me know if I am missing your favorites.

What is better than a list? A list of lists!

For academic Mastodon, we now have a central place to gather all lists that folks have created:

Considering grad school? Best advice I have is to ask research questions *you* are extremely interested in.

The point of a #PhD shouldn’t be to satisfy requirements. Your experience should build skills & expertise to pursue a field that excites you. ✨

Don’t let the journey be dictated through a program of study or handbook. Actively define your path with mentors & peers. Choose an advisor who will support your goals, not theirs.

Always happy to discuss. #Science

Turning Mario into Wario with #stablediffusion and the Inpainting feature is proving to be a bit more difficult:
Okay, the #stablediffusion Inpainting feature is wild, and the Invoke AI UI for it in 2.1 is incredibly easy to use! Here's Iron Man recast with Keanu Reeves instead:
