I’m just an NYC public school parent, standing in front of the June calendar, asking the DOE if it’s ever going to release the 2023-24 school year calendar

[AI at Meta @AIatMeta]

In 2021, we created a research demo that brought amateur drawings to life through animation — today, we're open-sourcing the code + releasing a first-of-its-kind dataset of nearly 180K annotated amateur drawings to help researchers keep innovating in this space.

Reading @MetaAI's Segment-Anything, and I believe today is one of the "GPT-3 moments" in computer vision. It has learned the *general* concept of what an "object" is, even for unknown objects, unfamiliar scenes (e.g. underwater & cell microscopy), and ambiguous cases.

I still can't believe both the model and data (11M images, 1B masks) are OPEN-sourced. Wow.😮

What's the secret sauce? Just follow the foundation model mindset:
1. A very simple but scalable architecture that takes multimodal prompts: text, key points, bounding boxes.
2. Intuitive human annotation pipeline that goes hand-in-hand with the model design.
3. A data flywheel that allows the model to bootstrap itself to tons of unlabeled images.

IMHO, Segment-Anything has done everything right.

Thanks so much, Ivonne, and all my colleagues for standing up against hate and discrimination by volunteering to participate in virtual bystander intervention training! https://t.co/q3SiWtKLaV

A great onboarding process helps newbies start their job on the right foot. But even with an "ideal" onboarding process, everyone could use a refresher at some point (whether you call it "Reboarding" or not). Thanks to Amy Schultz…https://t.co/EPaoRuVVtl https://t.co/HHtt2Wc1PN

Raise your hand if you wish your company had a Chief Wellbeing Officer, or if you wish that was YOUR job. Here's some data behind these job titles (like VP of Flex Work), & how they reflect an org's priorities: https://t.co/MtQ9s35gR1 wisdom from @judyjacks7 @jenfish23

@NYCSchools Thank you, teachers! @NYCSchools, any update on the DOE school calendar for the next year?

I loved reading this piece by @sarahawildman. Some hope in dark times. Feeling that here in NYC. Thank you for sharing and blessings to your daughter and family. 🙏

For pediatric #cancer families like ours, milestones are enormous. My joy is indescribable - Orli became a Bat Mitzvah last Shabbat. But it was just as Colleyville's hostage crisis was unfolding. Here’s my effort to process parenting through uncertainty: https://t.co/2f9pzogx3Z

Ji-Young and her puppeteer Kathleen Kim both sound amazing!

“At only 7 years old, Ji-Young is making history as the first Asian American muppet in the 'Sesame Street' canon. She is Korean American and has two passions: rocking out on her electric guitar and skateboarding."

@lyneka Such a good idea💡

[Susanna Kim @skimm]

@jlbeltonjlb @Ali_Rosen @elizashapiro @jbletonjlb I wholeheartedly agree that kids excel outside GT & other points. The problem: the entire school system is racially divided, w/ origins inclu but not limited to redlining. Many see this decision as symbolism w/o the intended outcome of integration, which they want too

[Susanna Kim @skimm]

@elizashapiro Has PLACE said they are anti-CRT? As I understand it, PLACE isn't monolithic either? I know you already know there are a # of families never involved in the SHSAT debate, and/or with young kids who recently entered school, and have a range of feelings about mayor's announcement.

[Susanna Kim @skimm]

@elizashapiro I hear you, but can you clarify what "this movement" is?

[Susanna Kim @skimm]

@elizashapiro Families in favor of expanding accelerated education options can also strongly agree that racism is endemic and systemic. Please don't mislabel their voices by saying they "overlap heavily" with anti-CRT sentiment.
