Switching to @Apple to do more wearables development. Time to learn #Swift (avoiding Taylor jokes)!

Would this imply that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts?

Because it consists of billions of bidirectional interactions per day, Twitter can be thought of as a collective, cybernetic super-intelligence

Honored to share thoughts on higher education and ⁦@OlinCollege⁩ at the Global HR Forum in Seoul

[Sam Michalka @SMichalka]

Listening to @AndrewYang share a bit about his experience on the presidential campaign and giving a reminder of some of the systemic problems in our current democracy in the US.

@OlinCollege is hiring engineering faculty. Like interacting with students, but not sure if academia is the place for you? This place feels different, and I love it. https://t.co/GYjDzOOSlL

It was project selection day in our Machine Learning class on Friday. Can't wait to see what those biological (students) and computational neural networks do!

[Olin College @OlinCollege]

Students in Profs. @SMichalka and @listen2spacepod's Machine Learning participated in an activity today, perusing a variety of themed projects, discovering which might be of interest. Next, they connected w/ partners, began thinking through applications, approaches + got to work!

Meet Maya and David. Maya is a scientist. David is a male scientist.

@JasmineKwasa Jasmine, you are a superstar! Congrats!!!

@ShinnCunningham @AnneEUrai @jaybohland "on twitter" might be a generous description of my status, but perhaps it is time to up my game

[Celeste Kidd @celestekidd]

I'm happy to share my comments on the climate for men from my #NeurIPS2019 talk: https://t.co/VYo4st5VTt

Thanks @APAScience for hosting a great conference! Glad to work at a place that encourages thought about both the "can we" and "should we" with tech. @OlinCollege

[APA Science @APAScience]

Anusha Datar (L) & Sam Michalka (R), @OlinCollege, “Detecting attention in AR w/ EEG” (kudos to this team for asking conference attendees to weigh in on a research question by placing dots on a plot directly on their poster!) #FiveWordPosters #APATech19

[Michael Wong @miquai]

Seen at @UW.

[Sam Michalka @SMichalka]

Hanging out with my imaginary friend Mica at #LEAPcon. What you don't see here is the incredibly realistic AI sitting in the empty chair.

[Sam Michalka @SMichalka]

I checked out the live demo at #LEAPcon where Mica sits across the table and non-verbally communicates. Phenomenal!

[Next Reality @NextReality]

I met Magic Leap's AI assistant Mica & saw the future of augmented reality https://t.co/bPioOF4CBT

#MagicLeap’s digital human “Mica” looks a lot like Angelina Jolie in the 1995 film Hackers, no? @magicleap #LEAPcon 📷: @briantsai

[Sam Michalka @SMichalka]

Pumped that @nealstephenson is at #LEAPcon. My #scifi book club is reading Seveneves next
