My New Video Series: The Humanside of AI 🔥 

In this series, I'll be having in-depth conversations with founders, developers, and builders of AI technologies to explore the very human stories behind artificial intelligence.

Rather than focusing just on the technical details of how these systems work, my goal is to uncover the inspirations, ambitions, failures and successes on the journey to create and harness AI's potential.

If you want to be interviewed (or know someone I should interview), respond to this email and let’s set up a time to chat!

Here are some of my favorite things from this week:

ABSORBING

WATCHING

Unnaturalist.ai: AI plants

Maybe I’m missing nature time because of all the rain in Los Angeles, but my boyfriend runs this Instagram account where he brings imaginary plants to life through the use of AI.

Oscar noms were announced this week, so I’ll be trying to watch that whole list! What are you liking so far? I watched Saltburn and it was not my cup of tea (British pun intended). Sorry not sorry.

FEELING

VISITING

As fabulous as all the models from the fashion house Schiaparelli, in the brand’s 2024 couture show in Paris.

I went for the first time since COVID and I think we all need a little reminder of the magic life has to offer us.

🫶 AI for Good

👀 Job Board

Here are some awesome open positions in the AI space that I would love to see one of our readers fill:

Definition: Intent

Commonly used in training data for chatbots and other natural language processing tasks, this is a type of label that defines the purpose or goal of what is said. For example, the intent for the phrase “turn the volume down” could be “decrease volume”.
