When I first started teaching college it was for my local community college. CS was situated with other tech careers like System Administration, Web Development, and IT Repair. One of the first issues I had to manage was requests to adopt a

I agree with ziddoap here. Not reviewing these minor bugs are exactly how we end up with sophisticated attacks using simple bugs that leave us arm chair experts commenting "How did they even think of this?!?!" Because the people t

I've used this approach for slides and websites. Any time I see a great design, I'll take a screenshot and save it in a folder called "PowerPoint/Web Ideas". I'll even include some shots from typography style m

Monte Carlo Simulations have been a fantastic way for m3 to evaluate students' assignments in my AI course. Since some of the traditional AI algorithms rely on some degree of random, I run the simulation, check if it was able to achiev

I've seen a few, there was even one posted to HN some time ago, though I don't recall the exact name. They were working on adding emotion to audio generation, but it was still a bit wonky. Emotion is a tricky concept and one of th

Oh yeah, the annotations are lacking compared to images. Again from the academic side, I think one solution could be to recruit theater majors just learning about 'verbing their lines' and having a collaboration between CS and The

Sadly it's not my forte but I expect in the near future we'll see an additional "emotion" embedding or something similar. Actors regularly use 'action words' (verbs) [1] to help add context to lines. A model th

I look at it as a lightly goofy take on the "dark" color scheme idea. I'm a Monokai person myself but I always have a sensible chuckle when I see people built stuff with Dracula.

Apologies for the delayed response, but on the bright side it's faster than I respond to some emails XD. I should preface the course I was referring to was "Intro to AI", not "Ethics in AI". I only have a single lec

When I cover generative AI in my Ethics in AI lecture, one of few soapbox opinions I give is that GenAI is doing essentially what people do - copy others. Picasso has a quote about "Good Artists copy, Great Artists steal", which d

I've visited two conveyor-belt sushi locations - one in Japan and one here in the US. The one in Japan followed the colored plate system, however the US one just worked off a flat $20 fee.
