My article "L-Space and Large Language Models" is published in this month's Communications of the ACM: a piece of speculative fiction "explaining" that ChatGPT hallucinates about people because it's actually providing results from an alternate universe. https://cacm.acm.org/magazines/2023/8/274943-l-space-and-large-language-models/fulltext

I hope you enjoy it.

So a lot of you will know Allison Druin and Ben Bederson. They've founded a new school in Western Mass to support LGBTQ+ youth who, well, need the help.

On my first work trip other than conferences for... three years. It's a little strange, like I've forgotten a bit how to do this. I feel like I might show up and realize I've brought one shirt and 37 socks or something.
