Thank you @stanfordsilicon.bsky.social and @tsmullaney.bsky.social for a great conference. I still can’t believe I was invited to speak at Stanford!
I am flying home a little smarter then when I left, with new friends, more connections, lots of ideas, and some cool books and swags. Thank you 🙏
I had an amazing time at Face/Interface 2025, put on by @stanfordsilicon.bsky.social this weekend. So many great talks! I was struck by something @tsmullaney.bsky.social said — “Privilege is the ability to move onto ‘cooler problems.’” Let’s talk about that! 1/10 #langsky #language #technology 🧵🪡
