New lab alert ‼️🚨

I’m looking for PhD students who are passionate about creating assistive technologies and human-centered AI tools to join my research group at Tufts CS! I'm starting the Tufts AI, Design, and Accessibility Lab (TADA!) in January 2026 🥳

We’re studying how people build or run multi-agent AI workflows — from LangGraph to n8n to running multiple ChatGPT tabs in parallel.

30-min Zoom interview · 💰$50 CAD or equivalent

If you’ve built multi-agent /run multiple AI tools in parallel, sign up: https://t.co/FYBkAx7i6N

Should programming students take notes/just watch/type along during live coding lectures?

Danny Manesh (https://t.co/SoCv93GOX9) will present his ICER paper on Monday at 915am (EST) to showcase a new live-coding note-taking system that reduces students’ mental load while still enabling them to interact with and explore the instructor’s code.

Congrats to the lead PI @snaglee2401 and amazing student co-author @tongw_wu
