Lifelong learning, coachability, communication skills, computational thinking are just a few of the skills necessary in the future of work. Here's how to prepare and develop your team for the #futureofwork (hint, real-world project-based learning is key). https://t.co/VFId3SLwLh

Weather advisory update: With the Winter Olympics & the Super Bowl scheduled this weekend, crews have proactively performed additional inspections on the lines and infrastructure that serve broadcast facilities. This is a standard practice that we follow every year for the broadcast of the Super Bowl. With the forecast for severe weather conditions, other ongoing preparations include tree trimming and scheduling additional crews over the weekend. https://t.co/rFi3luctg7

@adcock_brett @coreylynch @Figure_robot @PunahouSchool It really was such an amazing experience, that I know our students and families will always remember.

One of the parents was so inspired by the visit that she's hoping her hospital will be the first in the nation to get humanoid robots!

[Yolanda Lau @yolandafan]

A big thank you to @coreylynch '06 for opening up @Figure_robot to @PunahouSchool's 12U Girls Junior Olympics team, giving us a glimpse into the future of AI & robotics. Seeing our young athletes engage with Figure employees & cutting-edge robotics technology was incredible.

[Yolanda Lau @yolandafan]

More on @Figure_robot's incredible Figure 02.

Seeing it in person was mind-blowing.

The future is here, whether we're ready or not.

[Yolanda Lau @yolandafan]

It’s moments like these that truly bring the intersection of education and innovation to life. I can’t wait to see how these experiences will shape their futures — and to one day get my own personal home robot, like the Jetson's Rosey the Robot.

And it was awe-inspiring to see the team prep for filming the video to launch Figure 02 – https://t.co/coppYYc176 –and to see @Figure_robot founder @adcock_brett at work.

So true. All too often women and minorities are told to change how they speak (and dress, and more) … when there are much greater offenders.

[Harvard Business Review @HarvardBiz]

Women are constantly told to change their vocabulary — to make it less apologetic and more assertive. But the truth is, we need to worry less about editing women, and more about editing incompetent and inappropriate men. https://t.co/Ow8FatT8Zm

@Lausensei @MerriamWebster Thanks! 🤓

[Yolanda Lau @yolandafan]

The nerd in me was pretty excited when I found myself quoted in the dictionary @MerriamWebster.

Especially under the lovely word, nurture.

[Yolanda Lau @yolandafan]

Do you by chance have a good image to show at a very high level how LLMs work? Input — model/statistical prediction — output.

Trying to find one to add to my slides for this Friday and next Friday.
