A belated update: I went to Singapore several weeks ago to participate in Smart City Ideation Challenge. Our team (with @swapneel_mehta ) pitched a project to discover fake news over multiple social media platforms, and won 2nd place 🥈 Thanks @AISingapore for hosting the event!
AISG launched the Smart City Ideation Challenge in Oct'22 with the aim of crowdsourcing ideas from the global AI community on “What are the AI problems worth solving towards Smart City Sustainability?” CONGRATULATIONS​ to our 6 winning teams! 🎉 aisingapore.org/technology/s…

Thanks @nycmedialab for inviting me. It was great sharing my Information Tracer project with other journalists, and learning from everyone else!
NYCML hosted a group of editors and journalists from German news orgs yesterday @ the Yard. We discussed technological advances in AI and their applications in the media industry.

Hopefully anyone interested in these topics - detecting hate speech, identifying #misinformation, foreign influence campaigns, or using social media to measure public opinion - will find the chapter helpful! At very least, should give you a head start on your #LiteratureReview!
Replying to @M_Vespe
Misinformation and democracy are areas where #CSS4P can be key: "Computational social Science for Policy and Quality of Democracy: Public Opinion, Hate Speech, #Misinformation, and Foreign Influence Campaigns" by @j_a_tucker👇 link.springer.com/chapter/10…

Today’s Twitter announcement is a perfect illustration of how external research – crucial for making informed public policy – can become collateral damage when platforms make policy changes that have nothing to do with research. 1/ teapawt.org/TwitterDev/status/1621…
Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

2022 is full of uncertainty and change. Personally, I was once a PhD student, then graduated at May, and became an entrepreneur. In this post, I reflect and share why I keep building Information Tracer, and what lessons I’ve learned along the way. informationtracer.com/blog/y…

Limits are there to be broken. By you and me together. I can say that I am beyond happy today that the official world record is once again faster. Thank you to all the runners in the world that inspire me every day to push myself.
