I’m not very into podcasts, but I listened to this one! WiML has meant a lot to me, and it was great to get this backstory. I especially appreciated the conversation about career changes and academia vs industry.
In case you missed it in the flurry of NeurIPS activity, @hannawallach.bsky.social and I recorded a (video) podcast on women in ML, friendship, research, and careers.
On my way to San Diego for #NeurIPS and the 20th anniversary of #WiML! To celebrate, @hannawallach.bsky.social and I recorded a podcast discussing WiML’s journey, our friendship and collaborations, research we're excited about, & advice we'd give our younger selves! www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear...
Our work on supporting industry computing researchers in assessing, articulating, and addressing the potential negative societal impact of their work (with @wesleydeng.bsky.social and @s010n.bsky.social) is featured in this edition of Research Focus.
Don’t miss this podcast🎙️with @jennwv.bsky.social and @hannawallach.bsky.social! They reflect on #WiML20Years and share their journey, collaborations, and advice in a special conversation on Microsoft Research’s Ideas podcast💙

I'm beyond thrilled to give a keynote at the 20th WiML workshop! 😍 I've given opening remarks before, but this is my first RESEARCH talk at WiML. It's a dream. Join us! I'll talk about supporting appropriate reliance, human agency, & critical thought with GenAI.
