The Archivist Within
Twitter played a significant community role for me when I first started out in my career. When Elon Musk purchased Twitter in 2022, I archived my tweet history and crafted a personal CRM. Today, I found my Twitter archive.
Mapping the Self: Data, Introspection, and the Future of Human-Centered Knowledge
Our digital lives are increasingly noisy, shaped by the gigabytes of information that we consume on a daily basis. The bits and bytes that make their way into our psychology via messages, articles, videos, shorts, and podcasts are algorithmically curated to latch into relevancy.
Data Introspection & Reclaiming my Digital Self
I hold a lot of value in the 'self' that I express through technology. Platforms like Facebook have an 'irrevocable use' clause in their terms of service that allows them to do what they'd like with your data in the name of 'improving their services', but you technically still own your data.

Each person is unique. Our bodies and brains are uniquely shaped to the inputs we are given (or give) them. Our minds are shaped by the information we consume, the people we listen to, the stories we tell ourselves as truth.
Is the Singularity already here?
I've had a hypothesis for several years now that we're already well within the fabled technological singularity. The quest for a super-intelligent, self-modifying computer is openly promoted in Silicon Valley. It makes sense that we would look for computational intelligence that looks human.
Chat-based Interfaces, Trust, and Guilt
Trust can be found between individuals, within organizations, and between an individual and an institution. When we consider the concept of trust, we might think about people we trust to be vulnerable around when we are going through a difficult time in our lives.

One of the most challenging moments as a leader can be confronting the moment when you know that you are no longer able to continue down a particular path you had been following.
One Year In - I Still Don't Use ChatGPT. Here's How it's Going.
As an autistic and queer individual, the role that technology plays in identifying, surveilling, and categorizing acceptable behavior within society is not lost on me. Despite using machine learning technology since 2014, I have used ChatGPT one time. The challenge that has come from not using OpenA
Eigenvectors as a Representation of Nuance? (Or, How I'm Re-Visiting all of my Freshman Year Math Classes To Explain my Brain) - Pt. 1
One decision that many organizations may be making right now is how to develop a corporate policy about artificial intelligence. Could, perhaps, an eigenvalue be calculated against a matrix of perspectives within an organization, to represent a new form of communicating the nuance and fluid nature o
