We just wrapped up the 5th Summer Geometry Initiative (SGI), bringing 30 Fellows to a cohort of 150+ alumni, who go on to PhD/MS, industry jobs, and more. Despite overwhelming success, SGI26 is uncertain thanks to the changing funding landscape. Please help us identify sponsors!

Especially since, as several pointed out - Claude will refuse to answer basic biology questions (supposedly due to biorisk), and end a conversation when AI welfare is "threatened". Just a bizzare set of priorities in this industry ... and I struggle to understand and/or justify.

Any article on this topic should really mention TCJA’s changes to Section 174 of the tax code, effective 2022. It’s unclear that this has much to do with advances in AI.

Academic peer review has many problems, but when it works, it's so freaking cool. The best people in the world spending hours deeply critiquing your work! For free! A level of engagement very hard to find elsewhere.

It is worth reading what Tao said here. It has a lot in it and it is not just “cutting research funding is bad” from a heavyweight. It has many personal details of what is being destroyed here and things about eg compressed sensing I did not know either despite being around it.

I frequently see discussions about “designing for emergence” in the interface design ∩ future of computing circles. While they usually centre around what’s adjacently possible, some great strides towards solid foundations have been made in mathematics recently.

The UIST Visions track is one of my favorite across all conferences I attend! I’m glad I worked up the courage to submit last year—not only was it ton of fun, but it yielded such generative conversations! So take it from me: if you’re early-career/pre-tenure, submit something!!

Code isn't just an intermediate step between intentions and application. It's a notation for thought, learning, and expression. For scientists, artists, and scholars, code is powerful. Don't replace thought with AI. computinged.wordpress.com/2024/08/05/all…
