As many of you might already know, I had this dream to become a faculty. Unfortunately, that did not happen, so instead I decided to create my own lab kind of a thing.
I am trying to start working with some students (PhD, masters, undergrad are all welcome) and mentor them.
🚨Generative AI has a serious problem with bias🚨

It happened! My first first-author paper with Misako Kawahara, @sacc_isa, @RuudHortensius, Akihiro Tanaka & @MariskaKret is out 🎉
It has been a long, winding, and fruitful road. I could not be prouder of how it ended.

This Moroccan Arab Muslim first-generation woman just gave her first long talk for her award-winning paper at #ICML2022! I dedicate this achievement to all the underrepresented groups that I proudly represent!
So overwhelmed by all the support that I received! Many thanks! 1/2

@SoliloquiosLit "Dibujando con el lado derecho del cerebro" de Betty Edwards es para aprender a dibujar pero en su mayoría es teoría, la autora menciona que es para aprender a observar, me gusta que incluye cosas como la abstracción de la infancia que se mantiene y varias curiosidades del arte😃
It is hard to overstate how liberating and moving it has been to study fatphobia this semester with my terrific students. We've studied texts by @rgay, @tressiemcphd, @SaStrings, @yrfatfriend, @RottenInDenmark, and @philoslothical7, among many others not on Twitter. So grateful.
