Silver lining: Europe became a Union yesterday. 🇪🇺

Exceedingly interesting paper and results from McGivney et al. "giving learners more control and agency may compete with the demand…to learn conceptual knowledge. Heightened agency…better…for other learning goals, like procedural skills and…intrinsic motivation and self-efficacy." 🧪 bit.ly/4hTs43Y

I have long held the belief that World War III started around 2012-13 and has been fought in the information space. It's a hybrid war. In 2021, one of my first TikToks was a warning that if the West and the United States didn't start fighting back, there would be nothing to fight for. 1/12

Wow! 🧪😎"Immersion for AI: Immersive Learning with Artificial Intelligence", my paper at the upcoming iLRN 2025 conference, is a nominee for BEST ACADEMIC SHORT PAPER! #iLRN2025Awards hdl.handle.net/10400.2/19469

People looking for new ways to involve AIs may this preprint (accepted @immersivelrn.bsky.social 2025): Immersion for AI: immersive learning with artificial intelligence. I use the system, narrative & agency dimensions of immersion to inspire the role of AIs. 🧪 www.researchgate.net/publication/...

Como eu dizia há dias, foram aprovados dois projetos lançados pela Eliane Schlemmer, que também envolvem o INESC TEC e a Universidade Aberta: num junta-se-nos o António Moreira, no outro a Daniela Melaré. Aqui está a notícia sobre segundo deles! bip.inesctec.pt/noticias/com...

Just wondering: now that you can instruct agents in ChatGPT, will someone instruct to say three time every dinner hour, "Sire, remember the Athenians"?

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?

The new **Sana** by @nvidiastudio.bsky.social made this locally in 30 seconds with my old (2019) GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB, using their smallest Sana-0.6B model for 512px. github.com/NVlabs/Sana

January carols. Whatever they are called in English.

Got approval, so next March I will experiment with an LLM tutor in Moodle doing all I am usually doing in a course. The goal is to find my new purpose and role. Be better. Any suggestions on the model to run locally to comply with GDPR? I am considering Phi, but haven't tried performance yet.

Seems relevant given the discussion of how fact-checking & information work online that X appears to have rolled out detailed AI interactions on tweets, the first fundamental change in how social media works in awhile It is a fascinating initial implementation with unclear consequences overall.

What percentage of students are you willing to falsely accuse of cheating with AI? There is a trade-off between false accusations and detection rates for AI. At a 10% false positive rate, detectors find 80% or less of AI content. At a 1% rate most find 60% or less. Don’t trust AI detectors!

@steampowered.com survey: Oculus @metaquestmr.bsky.social has >56% of the installed base. It's curious that Meta Quest 3 is eating aways as much from competitors.

Adeus 2024, olá 2025. 👌

I continue to be deeply moved by this statement to the heavens by President Carter.

🤬 Putin is weaponizing illegal migration to destabilize Europe, - The Hill. ❗️This strategy targets nations supporting Ukraine and exploits the vulnerabilities of Western societies. Wagner instigates unrest in Africa and Middle East, provoking migration waves toward Europe.

The @immersivelrn.bsky.social Learning Research Network (iLRN) is calling for proposals to host our annual conference in 2027, 2028, 2029, and 2030. A fantastic opportunity to host worldwide researchers at your institution and contribute to develop the field. www.immersivelrn.org/initiatives/...

This!

My paper "Immersion for AI: Immersive Learning with Artificial Intelligence" has been ACCEPTED for presentation at the iLRN 2025 conference. @immersivelrn.bsky.social Learning Research Network. This is a unique paper, I'm excited about incorporating reviewers' feedback and sharing it.

Welcome to the Jungle, by G'n'R. Hearing the opening is instant catharsis.

Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do; Nothing to kill or die for And no religion, too. Imagine all the people Livin' life in peace. You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one. John Lennon, 10/9/40-12/8/80

Since Russia expanded its war of aggression against Ukraine it has lost Syria and Armenia, is fighting to keep its grip on Georgia and Abkhazia, and failed to interfere with Moldovan elections. And during the same time, Finland and Sweden joined NATO. So much winning.
