Inspired by @louisaconwill.bsky.social's work, I wrote a short piece on subsidiarity as a guiding principle for open source AI in the latest issue of the Red Hat Research Quarterly. research.redhat.com/blog/article...

Today I received my Masters in Computer Science and Engineering! 👩‍🎓👩‍💻 Although I’m in a PhD program, not a masters program, it’s nice to finally have a graduate degree to show for my four years in grad school 😃 Next up is the PhD, expected in 2026 or 2027! (God willing 😅)

#CHI2025 recap: I got to catch up with old academic friends and meet new ones, and it was especially a treat to meet so many scholars whose work I’ve read and cited. It was also such a gift to present a paper so central to my dissertation in the country where I was raised 🇯🇵

Our paper was (conditionally) accepted to #CHI2025! In this paper we propose an approach to translate abstract ethics into concrete designs that promote the common good. On a personal note, I grew up in Tokyo so I'm grateful for a trip home 🇯🇵 @meganlevis.bsky.social @wjscheirer.bsky.social
